THE IMPACT

"Hand on my heart. Anamaria is the best coach I ever had.

I was reading through the testimonials from others about Anamaria thinking I have experienced all of this. My coaching journey with Anamaria has been transformational.

The combination of tools, frameworks, her intuition, positive energy, humanity and the way she connects with people is incredible. I have now realised my core values and making every attempt to live them on a daily basis. Success is fantastic but significance is more important. My coaching journey is making me realise that my future is not unpredictable. My future is simply the choices I am going to make. This could not have been possible without Anamaria.

Anamaria has been with me during every emotional state I’ve been through in the last 6 months. If you ask me right now how my life is? I would say, it couldn’t be better!!

Thank you Anamaria for the gift of your time."

“Coaching was more than establishing ‘a plan’ or ‘goals’ for me. It was, in fact, the opposite: a liberation from ‘expectation,’ and a way to connect instead with evolution. I’ve recognised my own resilience, which has made me confident – even fearless. I don’t think coaching will be a one-off for me – I think Anamaría can expect a call from me whenever I’m at a crossroads.

I came into this process completely unsure of what I wanted from the next chapter of my career, desperate gain a sense of agency and control over my work life, and to align that work life with my own interests and values. I wanted a career that was made up of things that I wanted to do, not simply that I could do.

I found that, and more, thanks to Anamaría and her skilful, magical guidance – and, I could not thank her enough. Her coaching helped me discover strength through a new sense of purpose, enabled my creativity through newly-gained headspace, gave me energy and drive through understanding the value of my work to others and to myself, and – most importantly – connected me to a sense of joy through the relief of so much undue pressure and anxiety.”

"Anamaría has the incredible ability to uncover hidden parts of your personality and through effective questioning will help you not only get to know yourself better, but also change the relationship you have with yourself. I started working with Anamaría at a very uncertain time in my life and through the course of the programme not only re-gained confidence in myself and my abilities, but also a much better understanding of who I am and what I want to dedicate my life to.”

“Anamaria is exceptional at bringing out the authentic leader that lives within everyone. She was very quick to spot the patterns in my thinking - the helpful thoughts as well as the limiting beliefs holding me back - and we really worked on these in my programme to ensure how I handle these moving forward. One of her many qualities is she has an uncanny ability to listen to you talk about yourself for two mins and magically condense that into a one word value that describes you and how you see the world. She is incredibly warm and had the knack of saying the right thing to me at exactly the right time; she could see when I needed a supportive nudge, but wasn't afraid to give me a shake when I was getting in my own way. She gives you a real "power-up" feeling when she's coaching you, challenging you in the right way to life your life according to your own values. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Anamaria - the biggest compliment I can pay you is that sometimes when I'm in conversation in my own mind, (or with Johanna now) I will suddenly think something like "if Anamaria was here she'd point out that that's your own limiting belief talking!" When you told me your Starbucks story about learning English for the first year or two it really resonated with me, we have so much to be thankful for and you have given me a new found belief and a set of tools that will stay with me for a long time. Thank youuuuuu.

And I laughed a lot too - who knew?!”

“Career coaching was an eye opening experience for me. I was in complete darkness over where my career was supposed to be headed over the next 5-10 years’ time. 3 months and 9 sessions later I have clarity over what my path will look like and it’s completely different from what I thought it would be. I’ve gained new motivation, objectives, energy and most importantly, a new perspective for my career plan.

The sessions with Anamaria, have helped me to get to know myself better, to identify strengths, skills and passions that lie beneath the obvious to me. Her warm and empathetic nature along with her ability to read people incredibly well, she brought about an“aha” moment in almost every session.

She continuously helped me to structure my thoughts and surface answers I didn’t know I had. I learned how to go about decision making and, most importantly, Anamaria encouraged me to look past the current horizon and pursue possibilities I had tucked away as “impossible”. It has been a journey of learning how to break down invisible and visible barriers and see the big picture.

Thanks to Anamaria I now know exactly where I want my career to be in 10 years’ time and I’m embarking on this journey equipped with new-found self-confidence and a toolbox that will help me to get there.”

“How can you sufficiently describe and recommend someone who has completely transformed your life for the better? This has been my experience with Anamaria. I cannot sing her praises enough, but I can attest to the fact that she helped me find my inner strength and spirit again. Whatever your goal is, professional or personal, Anamaria has the skills and passion to guide you to your own success.
