Hello my friends! I’m writing to you from frigid Albany, New York, wrapped in a Snuggie™️ - remember those? It may be icy, but I’m warm in all the ways that matter - November has been a month in which my coach self and creative self have been in FULL conversation. To start us off on this email, I’m serving you a hot cup of soothing, grooving music, so listen up!¹

The Good Ones EP

I released my debut EP, “The Good Ones,” on Friday, November 14th. It’s an album about love and heartbreak and hope. Good for winter!!!

These are the track titles ^ and you can listen to or purchase the full EP here.

This is an achievement y e a r s in the making. How did it happen? It happened when I said, “Okay. THIS is the year. I MUST record an EP.” In the fall of 2024, I felt a surge of determination and decided that being able to showcase my music was a real priority of mine, one that I had ignored for too long.

(Things will always take longer than you think! Start chipping away at the life you want now!)

Life Long Learner

This month, I attended the Ontological Coaching and Leadership in Action workshop with the Ontological Coaching Institute, and I left with a goooo0o0oosebump knowing: this is EXACTLY what I’ve been waiting for. It’s an approach that comes from RESEARCH! HALLELUJAH!

Soooo…

I’m officially going back for my second coaching certification, an 18-month program in Ontological Coaching. At its core, the ontological approach is one that honors the legitimacy and capability of all human beings, and focuses on three main spheres: language, emotion, and embodiment.

Please ask me about this if you see me in public, but be forewarned that I will WANT to talk about it in depth.

What are YOUR unattended priorities?

And while I’m knee-deep in my own transformation and learning, I want to invite you into yours.

Last year, I hosted a workshop all about PRIORITIES. And this year, I’m doing it again. Back by popular demand.

Three hours of radical reflection, honest decision-making, and planning for a year that gives you life.

2026 Priorities Workshop

→ Saturday, December 27th (replay available)

→ 1pm EST on Zoom

→ $33

→ Sign up HERE

Some testimonials from last year:

“Thoughts on the workshop: THIS WAS FANTASTIC.”

“Overall, Anna’s warmth, humor, intelligence and very effective planning made this one of the most inspiring and actionable workshops I’ve participated in. I can’t wait for her next one!”

And a quick share:

I recently went (a little) viral on Threads after posting about AI and the wild conversations around it. Two hundred comments later, I was reminded that I don’t have to have an argument ready to participate in discourse. We cannot learn if we are not listening to each other. The conversations we have are shaping the world.

That goes for change, too. We can’t evolve if we aren’t willing to hear ourselves. The conversations you have with yourself are shaping your life.

I’d love to see you on December 27th for the 2026 Priorities Workshop, where we’ll explore how to create sustainable progress for ourselves, and maybe even enjoy it! What a thought!

Until then -

blessings be upon you!! :-)

-Anna
