A multilingual ICF-certified coach and leadership trainer, Anne has spent more than fifteen years guiding individuals, teams, and global organizations toward meaningful transformation. Today, she is recognized as one of the Netherlands’ most inspiring coaching professionals, blending emotional intelligence, cultural awareness, and holistic methodologies to ignite lasting change.

A GLOBAL JOURNEY ROOTED IN CULTURE, CONNECTION & CURIOSITY

Anne’s international story began in France, continued through Spain and the United Kingdom, and has now flourished in the Netherlands. Her decision to move from country to country was not simply driven by career aspirations but by a desire to immerse herself in new ways of living, thinking, and interacting.

Her time in Madrid gave her mastery of the Spanish language and a renewed appreciation for cultural richness. Eight years spent in London shaped her both professionally and personally, offering her first corporate experiences and introducing her to the partner with whom she built a family. In 2014, she began a new chapter in Amsterdam, embracing a more balanced lifestyle defined by bike rides along the canals, a welcoming multicultural community, and the calm rhythm of Dutch living.

Living abroad has given Anne a unique worldview—one shaped by open-mindedness, adaptability, and an appreciation for diversity. These values now flow naturally into her work as a coach and trainer, where understanding people and cultures sits at the heart of her practice.

A LIFE DEVOTED TO HELPING PEOPLE THRIVE

Outside her professional world, Anne is a devoted mother of two energetic boys who inspire her daily to live authentically and courageously. She believes deeply in modelling the values she teaches—resilience, curiosity, balance, and wellbeing. Her family life is intertwined with her passion for personal growth, travel, and discovering new ways of being.

Anne also embraces wellness and creativity. Pilates is one of the anchors in her life, helping her stay grounded, connected, and aware of her body. As both a student and instructor, she finds joy in the practice and the clarity it brings her mind. She continuously explores new interests, from self-defense and salsa dancing to running and improvisation, strengthening her own mindset and modelling the importance of lifelong learning.

Her commitment to community extends to her volunteer work with Empower Amsterdam, a foundation that supports unemployed international professionals navigating the Dutch job market. Here, Anne offers her guidance, empathy, and structured support to help others regain confidence and build a more fulfilling path forward.
