Hi, I’m Anna
I’m a coach and healing practitioner, devoted to helping people create their own path, by reclaiming their power, truth and voice.
When we give ourselves the permission to feel and want, we begin to discover the truth that lies within, including our unique strengths and gifts that have the power to bring joy, comfort and support to ourselves and those around us.
I spent 14 years working in human rights and social change, before turning to coaching and alternative healing to support the deep inner work critical for our individual and collective well-being.
Born and raised in Singapore, I struggled a lot emotionally as a child. Despite being truly loved, I grew up feeling like there was little room to express or even explore who I truly was. The generations before me were focused on survival. My grandparents migrated for a better life, and survived the Japanese occupation during World War II. My mother carved a life focused on giving me the stability, education and opportunities she didn’t have growing up.
I grew up being highly functional, outwardly successful, but emotionally disconnected and dissociated. With time, life began to show me where I was limited by my conditioning and beliefs.
Despite living a rich and fulfilling life, I saw that I was missing a deeper truth. Instead of selfless advocacy and serving others, I needed to focus on inner work and healing. Instead of seeking joy and comfort externally, I needed to first love and trust myself.
I am grateful to a sacred ceremony in Ecuador for opening the door to a path of personal healing and self-discovery. It led to years of studying different healing modalities, before I began offering my services as a coach and reiki practitioner.
I am rooted in Toronto, Canada, where I’ve called home almost my entire adult life. I am a daughter, a friend, a lover of nature and movement, a casual doodler, a former philanthropy and leadership professional, and life-long student in the art of life.

I was fortunate to have the support of healers and health practitioners 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.
