Anna’s Energy Tanks

  • Being near the ocean. Whitney Houston’s “I wanna dance with somebody’, watching a movie and quality time with family and friends connecting.  

  • Alone time in the outdoors in nature, family rituals, meditating, having a mindful cup of coffee preferably outside in the morning. Prioritising my values also brings me peace

  • I’ve recently started running again which feels great (after the painful first 2 months…) and I balance this out with weight training and pilates. I also need pockets of alone time for recharging.

  • Connection is my purpose so if I don’t get time to connect with others I feel lost at sea and drained. Nothing energises me more than connecting with friends, family and or clients. However, presence is key in order for this to happen. My other tanks help me to be able to be present for others

Anna’s Story

Throughout my entire professional journey my passion has always revolved around providing individuals with opportunities to learn, grow, and live with purpose and positivity. This ethos has been at the core of all my work in the realms of health, education, and coaching.

Over a decade ago, I discovered my profound love for coaching, which illuminated my purpose in a whole new light. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with numerous Kiwi leaders, managers, and individuals, while also founding the Best of Today Coaching experience from the ground up.

My style of coaching is deeply rooted in partnering with my clients and by leveraging neuroscience and ‘brain-based’ methodologies each individual is able to unlock their potential and make the impactful contributions they aspire to achieve. Through collaborative efforts with my clients, we can swiftly identify the obstacles holding them back from reaching their full potential and assist them in devising action plans that generate momentum, enabling them to fulfil their destined impact.

Having grown up in a family business, I understand how stress can creep into all areas of our life if we aren’t equipped with the tools to manage it.

Furthermore, as a parent to Gen Z myself, I am very much aware of the challenges of parenting in today’s climate, where stress and anxiety among youth are at unprecedented levels. I am driven to empower one person at a time and in doing so I can contribute to a positive ripple effect of health and well-being within my circle of influence.

We may not be able to change the world, but we can change our perspective and how we experience it

Anna has a wonderful inclusive style and has a depth of knowledge she brings with her, tapping into her brain based coaching, NLP and holistic wellbeing.
