About me

Hi, love — I’m Anna. 

I’m a certified Somatic Embodiment Coach, Somatic Breathwork and Quantum Wellness Practitioner, Reiki Master, Podcaster, speaker, and lifelong student of holistic health and well-being.

My mission is to help you find deeper fulfillment, connection, and happiness in all areas of your life and move through its ups and downs with more self-trust, presence, and joy — by reconnecting to the wisdom of your body.

For the last 20 years, I’ve explored it all — nutrition, movement, mindset work, energy healing, somatic practices, meditation, quantum wellness, nervous system regulation, and spiritual teachings — always searching for more meaning, fulfillment, and depth.

What I’ve learned is that true happiness and inner peace don’t come from forcing, fixing, or disciplining ourselves into change. It happens when we soften, listen, and work with the whole self — body, mind, heart, and soul — so we can reconnect to the deep wisdom and radiance we’ve carried all along.

Your body already knows the way. Your intuition already has the answers. My work is about guiding you back to them.

How I Got Here

I was born and raised in Germany, where my love for movement began at age seven with rhythmic gymnastics. The competitive world taught me discipline, focus, and the power of the body — but it also planted seeds of restriction, perfectionism, and a complicated relationship with food and exercise.

For years, I chased the version of “healthy” I saw in magazines and fitness plans. On the outside, I was doing all the “right” things. On the inside, I was disconnected, overwhelmed, and exhausted.

When I moved to San Francisco, I began healing my relationship with my body, releasing old patterns, and nurturing my mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

Along the way, I discovered the power of somatic work — the missing link that helped me shift limiting beliefs, release stored emotions, and finally feel safe, grounded, and alive in my body. It was the first time I stopped trying to fix myself and started truly listening to myself.

Through this work, I learned to trust myself fully, feel confident in my choices, and live in deeper alignment with my truth. I felt more connected to my intuition, more at home in my own skin, and more magnetic in the way I moved through life. The constant striving faded, and it was replaced by a sense of ease, clarity, and inner knowing.

That’s why this is now the heart of my work. I don’t have the answers for you — but I’d be honored to walk beside you as you find them within yourself. Through somatic embodiment, intuitive guidance, and simple daily rituals, I guide you back to the place you’ve always belonged: your own innate radiance, magnetism, aliveness, and wholeness.
