This site is in admiration for the extraordinary human beings who are my client/teachers.
You care about others and you make so much happen for us. You have a clear purpose in a creative field, in healthcare, in leadership, in management, in tech, as a professional, an entrepreneur, a scientist.
You add to the world – you’re imaginative and visionary. You do important work. You hold things together.
Or perhaps that's what you want to be doing. You're wondering how to get there.
We could say you’re the one who sleeps at the mouth of the cave.
And I want you to think about this.
May I ask you - what are these longings and yearnings you’re only vaguely aware of?
Why do you often feel drained and tired from the emotional and physical toll of the unflagging attention you give to everything?
You’re thoughtful about so much.
You’re sensitive, caring, smart, you know your stuff, you have a great career.
You thought you were enjoying the good life.
Maybe it’s a simple one - with just enough for your requirements and for donations to support the causes you believe in..
Or an intense one that's very social, with food, exotic travel, mind-stretching reading, body-challenging sport.
And truth to tell, simple or complex - you're wondering when the other shoe will fall.
When the fatal flaw will show up?
The conscientious seeking never really quiets the unease you feel in the background.
Actually, these days, it’s more than unease- it’s urgency.
Your survival instinct is speaking up, asking you for how long this can hold.
Learn to bring deep and meaningful connection and partnership into many spheres of your life.
Express your own requirements clearly and to set down firm boundaries.
Find ways to let go, to stop worrying, to heal the old wounds.
If you have children, you are probably aware of some of the DNA your lineage carries and of your family dynamics.
You know don't want your children to carry forward any (ahem) dysfunctional aspects that there might be.
So you probably sense that some sensitive healing may be needed.
An avoider?
A controller?
A hyper-achiever?
A hyper-rational?
A hyper-vigilant?
A pleaser?
A stickler?
A restless?
A pleaser?

I'd welcome an email once you've got the results. Often they hit a bulls' eye.
To me the word "thriving" means an entire range of issues and efforts - from the personal to the planetary.
I source this online program in my former life as a TV journalist. I try to keep it honest using the lessons I eventually wrestled from a career-changing accident. And I nourish myself with the underpinnings of a writing and visual art practice I started when I was twelve.
My clients’ specific needs are my main focus. Much of our time together is live on Zoom. I deliver another portion through a richly resourced private app.
Start our work by joining me for seven weeks: we’ll apply imagination, ingenuity and discernment to our inner landscapes and to the characters who live there. And then we'll offer our new awareness to our circles of influence.
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.
In your couple - are you a controller to his pleaser? Or a victim to her stickler? Or a hyper-achiever to his avoider? I mention these character dances by way of example. There are many permutations of the saboteur influence in relationships.
That's why you need to know and name your inner saboteurs.
The couples I work with have a deep desire to be the best they can possibly be for one another in their future lives together.
When you fall in love your hormones go into overdrive. You are smitten, euphoric and convinced "This is it!" You make promises. And then, at some point, the "honeymoon" will end when you move into the next phase. Let's call it post-smitten. The question we have to solve for is -
How to grow forward from there? Acknowledge that some things just don't come naturally. Such as communication and tolerance for difference.
Coach Ipek Williamson and I offer this six week introductory program with an eye to the future. Your future. We have 45 years of satisfying, happy marriage with our spouses. We believe that being proactive and setting down intentional roots will carry a couple through challenging periods. You will learn to understand yourself, your partner and your relationship better. You recognize in advance your own needs and those of your partner. Instead of being driven by a motley crew of forces from the past, you'll step over the broken pieces and smooth your way forward. You'll ease your way onto your common ground.
Both members of the couple don't have to attend. If one feels the need or is delegated to take this on, that's fine.
This program includes Positive Intelligence® content delivered on the Positive Intelligence® app., with N.Y. Times best-selling author and Stanford University lecturer, Shirzad Chamine.
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.
Ben Douek, CEO, Robot In A Can
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.
