Hi, I’m Anna
I am a coach helping clients grow into a life of greater ease and flow.
I spent over a dozen years working in human rights and social change, before turning to coaching and alternative healing to support the deep personal transformations I believe are critical for our individual and collective well-being.
Born and raised in Singapore, I am rooted in Toronto, Canada, where I’ve called home almost my entire adult life.

My Story
Many years ago, I stumbled upon a way of being that is so full of love beyond my imagination. It was a sacred ceremony in Ecuador that gave me a glimpse of how different life could be, and set me on a path of learning in order to create some of this in my daily life.
When a toxic job led to health issues, I was forced to rest and go inward to recover. It was during this time that I was pushed to practice all the tools I had learned over the years, and dig even deeper to overcome, heal and create. This was a very painful time that changed my life.
I saw how my past experiences had created limiting beliefs and unconscious behaviours that ultimately led to staying too long in a work culture that felt deeply dehumanizing.
Worse, I saw how these lifelong coping mechanisms had been holding me back from experiencing life’s joys to their fullest.
Change begins from within.
Our reality is created from our beliefs, thoughts and intentions.
To change my reality, I had to first change how I felt and thought about myself - my sense of worthiness, my thoughts and beliefs about money and relationships.
With the right support, I was able to understand and process many of the subconscious layers of trauma that underpinned my old way of being.
It transformed every aspect of my life.
I let go of all the things that were no longer nourishing me. My old career, my apartment, relationships and bad habits. I faced many painful childhood feelings and memories, in order to rewire my brain and overcome lifelong dissociation and freeze tendencies.
I created more capacity for healthy relationships. Without the fog of pain, there is more room for joy and love. I can appreciate the complexity and quirks of loved ones, because I found a way to honour healthier boundaries and without abandoning my own needs.
I accepted that my passion and purpose had changed. I am committed to helping people grow into self-love and self-empowerment, not just for our well-being but so that we can support our children in having healthy relationships with themselves and others.
I took the tools and resources that helped me, many of which I had been learning for years, and turned them into offerings to help others.
I’m especially thankful for those who were able to hold space and support me, on my own terms.
Having the right support makes a huge difference. I hope to be able to offer the same as a coach and healing practitioner.
May we all have the opportunity to grow, play and create from a place of inner clarity, wisdom and creativity.
