Hello!
My name is Annamaria, and as a leadership coach, I help you gain back your confidence, no matter what you’re facing.
Do you feel like you’ve lost your voice?
What would have helped me in those times was someone who would listen, understand, and guide me through these situations.
Maybe you’re in a situation at work where you feel like your opinion and work isn’t valued.
Maybe you are in a relationship where you walk on eggshells.
Maybe you feel like something is holding you back from making a change and you’re not quite sure what it is.
I’ve experienced all of these situations and have helped others through them as well. During those times, I felt lost and powerless. I didn’t know what to do or where to turn.
Now, as a leadership coach, I provide the space and support to help people gain back their confidence, find their voice, and step into their personal power.
Why coaching?
My most recent experience is what brought me here today. I left a successful 28+ year career in Human Resources to pursue my passion to start a leadership coaching practice. As an HR professional, what I enjoyed the most was coaching employees and managers so that they were empowered to perform to the best of their abilities.
I started coaching when I realized I wanted to make an even more profound impact on people's lives. Now, I help my clients find their voice, take charge, and make great strides to achieve the life they want.
I am a Certified Professional Coach in Energy Leadership, a Certified Human Resources Leader and Mental Fitness Coach. Through my coaching, I help my clients find true inner peace, happiness, and sustainable progress. You don’t have to struggle through this alone. We can work through this together!
My Top Value:
Connection
Connection is one of my highest values and one of the reasons I love coaching. When you work with me, I want you to feel like you're talking to a trusted friend. I'm here to listen, ask questions, and sometimes I'm just here to hold the space for you to reconnect with yourself.
My clients have said things like:
"You give me that space and time to feel and sit in my emotion. That allows me to articulate things that are in my heart."
I want all my clients to feel comfortable enough to be themselves, without judgment.
Connection is a value that runs through my whole life, well beyond my coaching practice. The connection I have to my family -- my husband, sons, grandchildren, and children-in-love -- has been one of the biggest inspirations in my life. My family heritage is Italian, and I love my Italian culture. Nurturing community is so important to me.
The connection to my spirituality has kept me going through hard times. I lost my mom last June and my father 10 years ago. I was able to go through my mom’s passing differently because of what coaching taught me. I believe there's a higher power that we can all connect with at our true inner core. I also enjoy connecting with nature: sitting by the water and walking through the forest. I treasure moments of peace and quiet reflection.
My Inspirations
Beyond faith and family, I'm inspired by people that have come from hardship and achieved things beyond what others thought was possible. I love reading the life stories of those who have overcome their challenges. Some of my inspirations include people like Helen Keller and Mother Teresa of Calcutta.
