I was going through a particularly dark and challenging time in my life in the months after my husband and I moved from Salt Lake City, Utah, to Brooklyn, NY. I had a hard time establishing myself — a routine, a sense of place and home, an identity, etc. I constantly felt tired, isolated, alone, and generally unworthy of the life I was living. How I feel now is so vastly different. As I am writing this, after 10 month working with Annie, I am simply astounded by my own transformation. I have adjusted my behaviors, habits and lifestyle, and most importantly, my mentality. Annie helped me tune into my worthiness, which is not linked to any achievement or story I’d told myself, but simply reflects my own humanity. The coaching process has helped me in so many ways. I went from being unemployed to employed within a matter of days. I have established routines to promote restful sleep at night and to be productive during the day. I now meditate semi-regularly, exercise 5+ days per week, and. I eat healthy and I use a calendar effectively! I have learned to go a little easier on myself. Surprisingly, I am now able to successfully check myself whenever I rely on other people’s opinions of me to determine my self-worth. I stopped caring so much what other people think, and I see situations much more clearly. Annie brings so many positive elements to her work. Her questions get straight to the point, and she is very direct in all her communication — something I not only appreciate in her, but also aspire to myself. She’s nurturing and kind while being firm and assertive. I really appreciated the outlines she gave me, the structure of the sessions with meditation and movement preceding deep thought inquiries. Annie has helped me become more of the person I desire to be. It was a joy to work with her!
