About Annette

Have you ever felt stuck?

My first marriage was painful and for years I struggled with depression. Then after losing my job through redundancy things escalated out of control and depression turned into anxiety.

I felt hopeless, with no sense of purpose, completely powerless, not knowing HOW to get my life back. I held the belief that it was all down to bad luck, or maybe I’d done something wrong! I soon learned that bad luck had nothing at all to do with it but my perspective did.

That saying ‘things happen for a reason’ burned in my brain, if there was a reason then what was it?  It’s around this time my life changed forever after meeting a British Doctor who himself had undertaken traditional Zen Buddhist training, then developed something called Adaptation Practice (AP). Desperate for answers I threw myself into the AP training he taught which quickly had a profound and lasting effect on my life. So much so I have been practicing for the last 20 years and can offer many of the techniques I learned in my unique style of coaching!

I learned amongst other things that I deserved so much more, the real meaning of self-acceptance, self-belief and that by learning to trust and follow my gut and heart this would eventually lead me to a truly fulfilling career as a life coach and author.

I don’t know you personally but if this resonates in any way at all, if you’re struggling with something that’s holding you back, challenging you, stopping you from living the life you truly desire……then read on!

Straight Talking with Care

I am what is fondly known as a ‘straight talking Yorkshire woman’ with a warm heart, and care and compassion for those I work with.  As well as AP I have undertaken continuous coach training and personal development. My mission is to help women just like you. I have coached in some pretty tough environments including a prison where I inspired women with little self-belief to see themselves positively. My expertise, wisdom and experience has helped a wide range of women at all stages of life, including women in business, busy Mum’s, those possibly considering infidelity, or on the receiving end of it!

For you it may be about working less or just feeling ready for a new exciting adventure.

Some decisions are too big to make on your own and often those close to you will have their own opinion. If you’re in need of a supportive voice to guide you through a difficult situation I can be that additional source of support. Make those decisions based on what you really want, not what you think people want you to do!

Another level

Despite being down to earth and extremely grounded I have always had a high sense of intuition and over the years found this has deepened and developed. This heightened intuition has also given me the ability to gain valuable insight into people’s lives quickly meaning I can share accurate information with them. With the capacity to tap into other levels of information, each session is unique and it’s entirely up to you how much I bring into it. We can have stand-alone coaching or something a bit more spiritual!

Either way you choose, I have successfully navigated 100’s of clients through a wide range of life challenges and offer a non-judgemental, no blame or shame experience.

In 2019  I made one of my own dreams come true by publishing my first novel Imprisoned Heart. This is one of my great passions, an empowering story of triumph over adversity as it follows the journey of Katrina Sanderson, sentenced to prison for a crime she did not commit!  after being set up up a man who said he loved her!
