Empowering Individuals to Live in Authenticity

My name is Annie and I am a mindset and transformational coach.

I am passionate about supporting individuals who are ready to break free from the limiting beliefs they’ve inherited across generations, so they can discover and embrace their true, authentic selves.

Meet Annie

Hello, my name is Annie.

As a first-generation immigrant raised in a traditional Chinese family, I was often told who I should be - quiet, compliant, and academically successful. I was constantly striving to meet external expectations and I internalized these beliefs about my worth. I was taught to put others' needs first, often at the expense of my own desires and dreams.

For a long time, I followed these "rules" without question, but life started to feel increasingly meaningless and empty as I continued to strive for external achievements. I reached a point where I had to step back and ask myself: Who am I really and what do I truly value? This process of questioning my identity, unlearning inherited belief systems, and healing has been transformative, and it laid the foundation of the work I do now as a coach.

One of my pivotal moments came in my late 20s. I was experiencing severe workplace anxiety, and one morning on my morning train commute, I fainted from overwhelming stress. That was a wake-up call - I knew something had to change. After much consideration, I turned in my resignation and gave myself permission to rest for the first time. I allowed myself to play, explore, and reconnect with a sense of freedom I hadn't felt in years.

This act sparked a much larger period of transformation in my life. Beyond my career, I began breaking free from toxic relationship patterns and sought new ways to show up authentically in all facets of my life. During this period, I faced countless moments of self-doubt, each of which taught me the invaluable lessons in resilience, self-trust and the power of listening to my own inner voice.

At the heart of it, I am passionate lifelong learner, and I live with curiosity and openness to see where this journey brings me.

"Annie is a gift of a person. She is immediately familiar and easy to talk to, and she is an incredible listener. The process of sharing, hearing her reflections back, asking questions to help me go a bit deeper, and sharing her own wisdom has been super insightful for me, opening understanding about my thought patterns that are no longer serving me."
