Your expertise and judgment are vital.

You deserve recognition and full value.

You are at - or close - to the top of your game and known for your commanding grasp of your own particular area of expertise.

Perhaps it was earned in a professional and/or academic setting and came with a certification or degree. Or perhaps it was honed over years in the trenches of employment. Or perhaps it has been carefully cultivated as your own particular way of self-knowing.

These are the ways I regard the concept of expertise. Your knowledge already makes much happen. You care about the contribution you deliver.

I work with people like you - making strides in creative fields, in science, in healthcare, in academia, in leadership, in management, in the professions and in tech.

You are ready to increase your reach.

Our work will power a deeper sense of who you are and what you have to offer.

My own knowledge set is a blend of journalism, corporate work, published arts and science writing.

Your accompaniment during a particularly intense and difficult period in my life helped me greatly and your teachings are now part of my daily life.

You are truly an enlightened and empathetic coach.

I hope that many other people will meet you and benefit from your serene presence, open to art as well as to science and daily life.

Thank you Anne!

Anne opened me up to who I really was by guiding and digging deep to my core of where my issues stemmed from. I realized the importance of emotions and how I had neglected them all these years. Knowing that, she provided resources and activities I would - till this day -go back to as it helped tremendously!

Anne is patient and wise. She picked up nuances that were going against me to pivot me toward a better direction, developing who I was as a person. It had also transformed my outlook in life.

I highly recommend Anne for anyone who wants lasting lessons and are curious to discover more about themselves.

Thank you Anne Lewis, for being authentic in your coaching talent and helping me through my self-development journey.

As over-achievers it is important to pause, praise and acknowledge “We are enough” .

Thank you so much for your coaching guidance.

I am blessed to make this journey with you. You have helped me greatly regarding my procrastination tendencies and how I react to stressors in my life. I used to -- stop, really stop -- and turn my grief, pain and anger inwards. Since I was a child my life has been full of chaos and tragedies and I am keenly aware that I have not realized my talents to their full fruition. I remember the young woman I was at university who made a big impact on her teachers and in other realms as well. I thought that sky was the limit, but it was not possible without reeling in the voices of my childhood judges.

Now, I feel like I can finally accomplish my potential as a late bloomer and that's fine by me.

Coaching with Anne Lewis brought me clarity around the speed bumps and road blocks I've put in my own way and provided the impetus and focus to stay in forward motion. Not necessarily in checking off the items I have to do, but around developing a positive mindset for 'how I have to be' to hit my targets.

I think that what Anne Lewis has as a person is a depth, and I think that this makes a difference, Beyond listening and re-framing, there's something intangible - it is the essence of who she is, caring, compassionate, not afraid to go deep, down the "Mariana Trench". She is not afraid of that."

The single most important thing that I have learned from Anne Lewis is that coaching is like an emotional/reflective process where you become increasingly aware of your habits and the ways in which you need to grow to better scale your business.

Anne Lewis is generous, warm, wise, and a wonderful coach. She asked relevant questions, helping me think about my path. She has a good sense of humour, and was encouraging, helpful, and challenging when needed. Anne kept me on track and helped my business grow, which was my goal. I recommend Anne Lewis most highly as a coach.

Coaching with Anne Lewis was useful and strategic for me to get perspective on the issues in my life that needed attention. Her kind and supportive questions helped me focus on what really mattered to me, make decisions and take manageable actions in areas where I had felt overwhelmed.
Thank you, Anne!

I started in a very complicated situation with not a lot of direction and I was much greener, much more confused about my business. It's almost like you have a rough idea of what you're going do next, but by putting aside a certain amount of time, becoming aware of the next stages of growth, saying it out loud in coaching, really verbalizing it and preparing yourself for it, then you have more chance of actually growing in that direction and actually completing the tasks that you imagine yourself completing.

I've now grown Robot In A Can into an increasingly consistent and international business.

Coaching is really helpful, different from business mentorship and most important for entrepreneurs to guide their growth.

Anne Lewis reinforced my determination. She helped me trust my capacity to make it happen.

We brought Anne Lewis in to help us with a decision we had to make.

We asked her to work with us to untangle the confusing circles we seemed to be going in, to help us stay on track and be more objective. She worked with us to identify the core values we wanted to honour in making this decision. This made it possible to plan together and put that into action.
