How can my unlearning journey help you?

I used to live survival mode. A successful entrepreneur, mother and wife, I was doing it all and my sympathetic nervous system was stuck in overdrive.

I was going through life completely frazzled, giving to everyone, and receiving nothing in return. 

I help busy women bring balance back into their lives.

As women, we fulfill so many roles, often overlooking the one that matters the most - being in relationship with ourselves. Many of us are conditioned to put our needs last, we serve our children, our partner, our parents, our business, our boss, even our pets, before we even consider thinking of our needs.

We crave balance and end up prioritizing everyone else. We neglect our own needs and resentment builds as we think, "How would things run without me?" or "There's no time for self-care, how the hell am I supposed to fit that in?

This was the old version of Annie Dietz.

I was unknowingly addicted to stress—predictable but exhausting.

I refused help, preferring to trap myself in survival mode. I was living in an unhealthy relationship with myself, fearful to experience anything else, because it was all too much. Recognizing this was the first step toward changing my life.

It's really hard to see our own unhealthy habits.

Getting in touch with and honoring who I truly am has been one of the hardest things I have ever done. Bringing my destructive patterns to light and replacing unconscious behaviors with new healthier ones is not for the faint at heart.

Setting boundaries has helped me see that I can give more to others when I first make time for myself.

Full disclosure, I have to put in the effort every day. We are all works in progress.

How do we become aware of unconscious habits?

Our brains generate around 60,000 thoughts daily, creating automatic behaviors. While helpful for routine tasks, these shortcuts can reinforce bad habits and weaken any boundaries we may hold. 

Some examples; you always tidy up after your kids, you fix work a co-worker didn't do right instead of holding them accountable, you loan money to a family member, knowing you won't get it back.

It may feel easier in the moment to just do it, but where else are you compromising to make life “easier”? Consider these or a similar situations where you find yourself frustrated or resentful. You might find that you're the main obstacle to the peace and balance you desire.

It’s time for some tough love:

YOU are the main obstacle from the peace and balance you crave.

I've been there, and now I help others navigate similar paths. Through deep listening and the right questions, I fast-track your growth.

Being & Doing

We often talk about the concept of being and doing in the coaching world. When we know how we want to show up (be) we can then put into action the steps needed to get there (do).

My journey to embodying "THE Annie Dietz" wasn't easy and my work is not done. Life challenges me daily and I try to meet those challenges with curiosity over discouragement. 

My goal as a coach is to support anyone who finds themselves navigating a similar path to mine. Through listening to your experience and applying the awareness I have gained in my own life, along with my professional coach training, and natural intuition, I help make your path to a healthy relationship with yourself an easier experience and one that you delight in achieving more quickly.

I invite you to create a healthier state of being for yourself and start living a calm and more balanced life that leaves you feeling fulfilled.

You deserve to show up as THE most authentic version of yourself.
