I started looking for a life coach because my job had become very consuming. I did not derive much enjoyment from it anymore and I had been feeling stagnant for more than two years. I often felt anxious, exhausted and distant, which also affected my personal relationships. I wished I could put my unique strengths towards something I believe in, and do it in a way that is sustainable with a balanced lifestyle. I felt immediately understood by Annie. She gave me practical tools to re-examine my work situation, interpersonal dynamics, and healthy habits/routines. We have concrete action steps that I took between appointments and they literally moved me toward my goals: negotiating with colleagues/family members, researching different industries, planning workout schedules, building my social support network, etc. We came up with solutions addressing challenges not only in order to develop my career, but also to enhance my personal relationships. Annie provided guidance, support and peace of mind during this transition period. The real surprise bonus is the depth of self-awareness and internal resources she has helped me to get in touch with. I have been able to stay present more consistently and feel more relaxed.Now I’m embarking on a career path that I’m really excited about. Overall, I’ve made huge progress in terms of my happiness and my general energy level. Working with Annie as my life coach has been an empowering experience.
