Meet Ann Smyth

Where Science, Strategy and Soulful Leadership Intersect

Helping High Achievers Lead With Clarity -Without Sacrificing Who They Are

You’ve done everything right.
You’ve built the life.

Kept the plates spinning.

Played the roles, leader, caregiver, partner, and high achiever.

And still… something feels off.

The outside looks full, but the inside feels flat.

You’ve outgrown the systems that helped you succeed, and now you’re being called into something more honest.

Not louder. Not faster.

Deeper.

That’s where I come in.

I’m Ann Smyth.

Neuorscientist. Coach. Researcher. Educator. 6/2 Emotional Manifesting Generator.

Founder of the Design a Life You Love Philosophy.

I help high-performing professionals rebuild their lives from the inside out, so they can live, lead, and love in a way that reflects who they truly are.

“She is intuitive, insightful, supportive, brain-busting, and heart-opening.”

Ann is much more than a Human Design expert. She is intuitive, insightful, supportive, brain-busting, and heart-opening. Working with her will take you on a ride like no other, where you’ll explore yourself and truly start living in a dream.

Certifed Human Design Life Coach Ann standing at table smiling

I’ve walked this edge myself.

For years, I did everything I was taught to do.

I was dependable. Driven. Focused. Functional.

But underneath that? I was exhausted.

Living from my head, not my inner world.

Succeeding in ways that no longer made sense.

I realised I was performing a life that looked good but didn’t feel like home.

So I began again.

Not by blowing it all up. But by rebuilding from within.

Rewiring my beliefs, nervous system, and self-concept.

Redesigning my work, my rhythms, my relationships, and my way of being.

This work changed everything.

Now, I guide others through that same process with tools, depth, and real-world integration.

The Design a Life You Love Philosophy

This work isn’t about fixing yourself.

It’s about becoming who you were always meant to be before the world told you to be efficient, agreeable, impressive, or fine.

It’s about building an internal architecture that can hold the life you’re truly here to live.

We do that through a methodology grounded in:

SCIENCE

You are a biological being with a unique nervous system, behavioural patterns, and decision-making architecture.
Together, we map how your system currently operates and where it’s ready to evolve.

This process integrates tools from applied neuroscience, behavioural change theory, polyvagal-informed practices, and identity remapping to help you regulate, rewire, and renew from the inside out.

STRATEGY

This isn’t insight for insight’s sake; it’s action that reflects your truth.

We design practical systems and structures that reflect your actual life: your energy, ambitions, constraints, relationships, and values.

We explore what it means to build a portfolio lifestyle, one that integrates work, rest, creativity, family, finance, and freedom.

SOUL

Here’s where we integrate your Human Design blueprint, your future self, and what neuroscience tells us about spiritual intelligence and awakened awareness.

This is the neuroscience of spirituality, the part of the brain that seeks meaning, belonging, beauty, and connection.

This pillar encompasses inner knowing, intuitive decision-making, and the profound remembrance of who you are beyond your roles or accomplishments.

Who This Work Is For

You don’t need more ambition.

You need clarity, calm, and capacity.

I work with high performers, leaders and execs, creatives, caregivers, and visionaries who are:

  • Redefining success after burnout, overachievement, or a major life shift

  • Feeling emotionally disconnected, overextended, or chronically “on”

  • At a decision point - career, identity, family, location, purpose

  • Longing to reconnect with their inner authority, energy, and creative self

  • Ready to release patterns that served them once, but are now keeping them stuck

You don’t need a new to-do list.

You need a new foundation and a coach who can hold that process with depth, clarity, and precision.

What This Work Feels Like

  • Nervous system regulation meets soul remembering

  • Long-term clarity, not short-term motivation

  • Soft structure, deep scaffolding

  • Rewiring at the level of identity, belief, and behaviour

  • Permission to build a life that honours your essence, not just your goals

You’ll leave with:

  • An expanded capacity to lead, relate, and decide

  • A redefined self-concept rooted in who you truly are

  • Systems that support your life instead of stretching you thin

  • The tools to live with both ambition and presence

Choose Your Starting Point

There’s no pressure.

Just permission to begin.

My quest for self-knowledge led me to Ann Smyth during a period of severe growing pains in my life. Her uplifting spirit and intuitive brilliance helped me gain clarity and peace while making sense of the chaos in my inner and outer worlds. Ann’s provocative and compassionate inquiry aided me in crystalising beliefs, behaviours, and values that truly originated within me and dismantling those that were conditioned by others. By the end of her program, I effortlessly shifted into harmony with my relationships and my environment. I am now shining with self-assuredness from being able to trust in my inner wisdom and authority.
