The Neuroscience of Fulfilment
The Design a Life You Love Philosophy: Success Without the Silent Struggle
Life and Leadership Coaching for High Achievers
A neuroscience and Human Design-based approach to deep self-understanding, emotional regulation, and intentional life and leadership design for high-achieving professionals.
HUMAN DESIGN life AND LEADERSHIP coachING
Success isn’t just achievement - it’s how you feel achieving it.
In a world that celebrates speed, output, and performance, many driven professionals find themselves wondering: Is this really it?
You’ve done the mindset work. You’ve met the milestones. But something still feels off.
There comes a point where the external achievements no longer match the internal experience. What once felt like progress now feels like pressure. The mind is always on, but the heart feels distant. And though everything looks “right” from the outside, something essential feels misaligned.
This is not failure - it’s the invitation to evolve.
The next level of leadership requires a new level of you. One that’s less about doing more, and more about becoming who you’re meant to be.
This is where the Design a Life You Love Philosophy begins.
It’s not a quick fix. It’s a guiding principle for changed behaviour, anchored in science, powered by insight, and sustained by inner leadership.
“What truly sets Ann apart is the rare blend she brings: grounded, practical business acumen, the latest research and thinking from a neuroscience perspective, combined with expansive, spiritual insight”
What initially drew me to Ann was my curiosity about Human Design, but what I experienced over the initial 16-week program far exceeded my expectations. Ann’s depth of knowledge, especially around the nervous system, completely satisfied my thirst for learning and gave me a profound understanding of myself that rippled into every area of my life. I’ve not only transformed how I live, but also how I run my business. From pricing and marketing to client relationships, Ann’s guidance has been both strategic and deeply personal.
What truly sets her apart is the rare blend she brings: grounded, practical business acumen, the latest research and thinking from a neuroscience perspective, combined with expansive, spiritual insight. It’s this integration of the tangible and the ethereal that makes working with Ann so powerful. I now feel more aligned, empowered, and equipped, not just for my own growth, but also to support my clients in a deeper way. Working with her is the perfect blend of soul and strategy.

The Cost of Traditional Success
You’ve followed the rules. Built a career. Reached the milestones.
But instead of satisfaction, you feel an undercurrent of tension, mental fatigue, emotional exhaustion, and a gnawing sense that something’s missing.
Many high-performing professionals reach this threshold quietly. Outwardly, everything is “fine.”
But internally, there’s a disconnect: from meaning, from energy, from self.
You may find yourself…
Feeling emotionally flat or disinterested in what used to excite you
Stuck in loops of overwork, burnout, or constant problem-solving
Wondering if you’re even in the right place professionally
Questioning whether success is worth the cost to your health, relationships, or peace of mind
Craving a deeper connection, but unable to slow down enough to feel it
Caught in scarcity—time, money, energy, or self-worth—despite external success
Longing to build something lasting, but unsure where to begin
You’ve always figured it out before. But inner alignment isn’t something you can outthink.
This isn’t failure. It’s a signal.
A signal that the way forward is not through more pushing, but through deeper alignment.
This serves as the entry point to Designing a Life You Love
- not just in theory, but in practice.
Where Science, Strategy, and Spirituality Meet
The Design a Life You Love Philosophy is a strategic framework for conscious living, anchored in cognitive neuroscience, shaped by Human Design, and supported by spiritual and behavioural insight.
It helps you return to your inner architecture—the unique configuration of your values, energy, mindset, and emotional wiring.
Through this work, you’ll develop interoception, the ability to sense and respond to your body’s signals, the foundation of emotional regulation.
This is the foundation of deliberate calm, frustration tolerance, and sturdy leadership, the qualities that sustain high performance without sacrificing yourself in the process.
This is for professionals who want to:
Reconnect with their purpose and decision-making clarity
Navigate transitions or disconnections in their professional life
Feel more resilient in the face of pressure, change, or uncertainty
Build success from the inside out, not just based on external validation
Lead and live with presence, emotional regulation, and long-term energy
Create meaningful momentum toward their legacy, not just their next goal
“Ann has a special talent for making you see all the potential that often we can’t see in ourselves. ”
With her unique style of coaching, Ann has provided me with a powerful set of tools to consciously approach all areas of my life. After a year of working with her, I feel I am more aligned to my true self and I can design the life that works just for me.
Thanks Ann for your teachings, your endless support and your wit.

This Coaching Is for You If…
You’re successful on paper, but something doesn’t feel right inside
You’ve started wondering if you’re in the right place professionally You feel emotionally disconnected from your work or personal life
You crave peace, presence, and deeper meaning, but don’t want to burn everything down to find it Your mind never switches off, constantly planning, solving, or doubting
You find yourself stuck in the same patterns: burnout, overgiving, or scarcity thinking
You want to lead with authenticity, resilience, and clarity, but feel blocked by old habits or beliefs
You’re ready to build a life and career that reflects your inner truth, not just external expectations
You’ve outgrown old versions of yourself, but don’t yet know what the next one looks like.
This work meets you exactly where you are—and helps you move toward where you want to be. It honours both ambition and emotional well-being. It embraces both strategic thinking and inner wisdom.
I created the Design a Life You Love Philosophy because I’ve seen, personally and professionally, what happens when achievement is disconnected from alignment.
For years, I worked at the intersection of business strategy and human behaviour, helping high-level professionals meet external goals. But I witnessed, again and again, how many people were succeeding on the outside, while quietly struggling on the inside.
I believe that how we live is just as important as what we achieve.
As a certified coach with a background in behavioural science, ongoing M.Sc. studies in Neuroscience at King’s College London, and deep expertise in Human Design, I blend science, strategy, and spirituality to guide clients through real transformation.
I specialise in helping professionals understand and reshape their inner architecture, the emotional, mental, energetic, and neurological patterns that shape how we lead, relate, and thrive. Whether you’re navigating burnout, stuck in a cycle of overachievement, or simply ready to reconnect with your purpose, this work helps you build the capacity to flourish.
This is a calm, courageous, and customised space to come home to yourself while still moving forward in your work, relationships, and leadership.
If you’re seeking not just success, but sustainable clarity, presence, and impact, you’re in the right place.
