Never in my wildest dreams did I think breathwork would change everything...  

I was a high achiever at the top of my game—but behind the scenes, I was drowning in stress, burnout, and exhaustion.  

I’d built a multi-6-figure business, won awards, written books, and spoken on global stages.  
But no matter how much I achieved, I still felt overwhelmed, disconnected, and stuck in survival mode.  

Then I discovered breathwork. And everything shifted.  

What started as a tool to relieve stress became my fastest route to deep transformation. I realised breathwork wasn’t just about breathing—it was the key to rewiring the subconscious, unlocking creativity, and breaking free from the burnout cycle for good.  

I developed the BreathHealing Release™ Method, a cutting-edge approach that fuses breathwork, somatic therapy, and subconscious reprogramming to help high achievers reset their nervous system, rewire limiting patterns, and reclaim their energy.  

Today, I’m on a mission to bring breathwork into the mainstream.  

I run the Influential Breathwork Academy, training and certifying coaches in my elite system. I also help high-achieving professionals snap out of burnout and into balance through my 1:1 Power Hours .

High achievers don’t break because the pressure is too much.
They break because they’ve been carrying emotional weight in silence for years.

The unseen stuff.
The unspoken stuff.
The responsibility no one thanked you for.
The grief you didn’t have time to feel.
The role of being “the one who copes.”

Pressure gets acknowledged.
Emotional load gets normalised.
And the nervous system pays the price.

Burnout isn’t sudden.
It’s the body finally refusing to carry what never belonged to it in the first place.

This is where breath changes everything.
Not as a coping trick.
Not as mindset work.
But as a way for emotional weight to move, release, and stop living in your body.

If this hit a nerve, save it.
Honesty is often the first step back to regulation.

And if you’re feeling the pull to go deeper with this work:
the new Influential Breathwork Syllabus for 2026 is now available.

Comment 2026 and I’ll send it to you.

HIGH ACHIEVERS DON'T COLLAPSE FROM PRESSURE

Most people think intuition arrives as a lightning bolt.
For most high achievers, it arrives as a whisper we’ve been too busy, too overwhelmed, or too heartbroken to hear.

When life is loud, intuition goes quiet.
Not because it’s gone - but because your system is in protection mode, doing everything it can to keep you moving through the hard stuff.

The moment you start slowing down, breathing differently, and creating tiny pockets of inner safety, the whispers get clearer.
Your body softens.
Your breath deepens.
And you finally feel the truth you’ve been overriding.

Intuition is not a mystery.
It’s a biological, emotional, breath-led signal system -
a remembering of who you are beneath the survival strategies.

If you’ve felt something calling you…
a shift, a change, a desire for a softer way of living or leading -
trust that it’s real.

You’re not imagining it.
You’re reconnecting with yourself.

Save this for the days when your mind gets noisy again.
Your intuition hasn’t left you -  it’s waiting for you to come home to it.

🤍
Anna #breathworkcoach #breathwork #breathworkfacilitatortraining

Your intuition has been whispering

You didn’t burn out because you weren’t strong enough.
You burned out because you stayed strong for too long, through things that would have broken anyone.

Most high achievers don’t collapse from work.
They collapse from everything they carried silently while still showing up, still performing, still trying to be “okay.”

Burnout is rarely about capacity.
It’s about cost.

And at some point, your body calls time on the version of you that survived by overriding your own needs.

If you’re here, reading this, maybe that’s what’s happening for you too.

Your breath is the first place your healing begins — the part of you that’s been whispering beneath the noise, waiting for you to finally land back in yourself.

This is the moment your system asks for softness, honesty, regulation…
not productivity, speed, or another mindset hack.

If this resonated, save it for the days you forget.
And if you’re finding your way back to yourself after burnout, grief, or a life that no longer fits:

You’re not alone.
You’re rebuilding.
One breath at a time.

🤍

You didn't burn out because you were weak

It's my birthday. 🎂

And I'm doing something I've never done before.

For the next 48 hours ONLY, my Deep Healing Activation Day is £480 instead of £1000.

Here's why I'm doing this:

When I was at my lowest - burnt out, stressed, my body literally forcing me to stop - I couldn't find what I needed.

Talk therapy helped, but something was still stuck.

Rest alone didn't shift it.

Positive thinking? Please.

What I needed was something that worked deeper than my conscious mind could reach.

Something that would release the trauma and stress my body had been storing for years.

I found it in breathwork. The deep, somatic kind that actually shifts what's been stuck.

And now? I want to make it accessible to the people who need it most.

The high-achievers running on empty.

The carers who put everyone else first.

The ones holding it all together while quietly falling apart.

This is for you if:

You've been strong for too long and you're exhausted
Your body keeps sending signals and you keep ignoring them
You've tried everything and nothing's actually shifted
You know something needs to change

What happens in your 4-hour session:
✨ Master BreathHealing Release™ to clear stuck patterns and trauma
✨ Molecular Hydrogen Therapy for deep cellular repair
✨ Functional breathing techniques for daily use
✨ Full integration and support time
✨Oxygen rich water and herbal teas
✨ Proper time to ground and process

This is the full nervous system reset you know you crave.

About my Deep Healing Activation.

You’d be surprised at how many of the ‘big names’ in the coaching space come and see me for a day, and keep it quiet.

Not because it hasn’t impacted them hugely- because that is obvious in the room, and afterwards.
But because some of the ‘big names’ don’t want anyone else to know how much they are struggling. How much they are in need of deep healing work.

Which is one of the reasons I’ve put a special offer out for my birthday yesterday.

Because I know how many more of you are struggling and don’t know where else to go.

Who to go to when you’re sick of talking about it all.


This offer ends at midnight tonight.

After that, my Deep Healing Activation goes back to £1000.

So, I'm going to be direct with you.

If you're reading this and you're still on the fence, ask yourself:

How long have you been carrying this?
The stress. The exhaustion. The tension in your body that never quite leaves.

The overwhelm you've normalised.

The feeling like you're barely holding it together.

How long have you been telling yourself you'll deal with it "when things calm down"?

Here's what I've learned: things don't calm down.

You have to create the space for healing yourself.
You have to decide you're worth it.
You have to stop waiting for permission and give it to yourself.

That's what this day is for.

To finally release what's been stuck in your body for years.

To reset your nervous system so you can stop living in survival mode.

To remember what it feels like to breathe deeply and actually feel okay.
I've been where you are.

I know what it's like to push through when everything in you is screaming to stop.

I know what it's like on the other side too.

And I want that for you.

Don't let this pass.

Your body's been waiting.

You know it, and so do I. #breathworkcoach #breathingexercises #breathworkfacilitatortraining

I'll be sending out the application from to be a guest on my new podcast about healing and the hard, messy human stuff that you often keep away from your socials, but actually contain the nuggets of the real purpose work you are here to do.

Every time you take a breath without using your nose, you are sending your body into a stress cycle.

You're doing it over 20k times a day.

What if the reason you have anxiety/panic attacks/low level mood was because you've trained your body (through no fault of your own) to continue being stressed?

Time to do something about it!

Grab my Breathwork Healing Toolkit- it gives you 7 videos and PDF's for you to learn the foundations of combating stress safely, and for free.

Tomorrow I turn 48.

48 years of learning what truly matters.

48 years of pushing through when I should have stopped.

48 years of discovering that healing isn't linear... and that's okay.

I've been thinking about what kind of birthday gift I want to give myself this year.

And I've decided it's this: making deep healing accessible to the people who need it most.

For 48 hours only, starting tomorrow at midnight, I'm doing something I've never done before with my Deep Healing Activation Day.

If your body's been trying to tell you something...

If you've been putting yourself last for too long...

Keep an eye out tomorrow.

Anna x

The moment you realise you have been holding everything together on your own for far too long.

Many of the clients who come to me are not struggling because of one single thing. It is the combination of responsibilities, emotions, hormones, pressure and invisible load that becomes overwhelming.

This week more women than ever have told me they feel disconnected from themselves.
Low confidence.
Low energy.
High stress.
A deep sense that something needs to change.

So today I am opening Release: Your Three-Month Healing Immersion.

This is my deepest support for women who want to release emotional weight, regulate their nervous system and rebuild their inner strength. 

It blends BreathHealing, somatic release and subconscious upgrading in a way that goes far beyond mindset work.

For Black Friday it is 50 % off.

I have never offered this level of access at this price.

If you would like the details, comment INFO or send me a DM and I will share everything privately.

Did you know that in perimenopause your breathing is hugely affected by the drop in progesterone?

Progestone influences the pH balance in your blood, which affects the signals to your brain that it is time to breathe.

When these are altered, it can cause havoc with what's going on inside you from a chemical stand point.

Since breath affects your mood, and is directly tied to your autonomic nervous system, it is no wonder that you feel on edge, panicky or out of control.

"It was emotional in the best possible way."

That's what Sarah said about her Deep Healing Activation Day with me.
Sarah's been a breathwork student of mine for a couple of years, so she already knew how powerful the work can be.

But experiencing the full process in one dedicated day?

"Something else entirely."

Here's what happened:

"I arrived with a few ideas about what I wanted to explore, but once we settled in, our conversation took me so much deeper than I expected."

That's what I love about this work.

You come in thinking you know what needs to shift.

And then your body shows you what's really been waiting to be released.

"Anna held space with so much care and grounding that I felt completely seen and validated throughout. The way she guided me helped me understand myself, my patterns, and the situations I brought forward on a much deeper level."

"It was a truly transformative experience, and I'm so grateful for the clarity and release that came from it."

The clarity and release.

That's what happens when you finally give yourself permission to stop holding it all together.

When you let someone else hold space for you.

When you trust your body to do what it's been wanting to do for years.

If you've been through tough stuff...
If you've been holding it together for too long...
If you know something needs to shift but you don't quite know how to make it happen...

This is how.

My birthday offer: £480 instead of £1000 for 48 hours only.

Ends TODAY at  midnight.

Your body knows what it needs.

It's time to listen. #breathwork #somatichealing #breathhealingrelease

Here's what no one tells you about getting older.

The birthdays stop being about cake and candles.

They become about reflection. About what you've survived. About who you've become.

This year, I'm not interested in presents.

What I'm interested in is helping more people break free from what's been holding them hostage.

The stress. The overwhelm. The years of pushing through.

Tomorrow at midnight, something special begins.

48 hours. For my 48th.

More details in the morning. #breathworkfacilitatortraining #breathwork #breathworkacademy

Right now my Deep Healing Activation Day is on offer as part of my birthday.

Here's what I know about the people who book these sessions:

They're done pretending they're fine.

They're done putting everyone else first.

They're done waiting for the "right time."

They know their body's been trying to tell them something.

And they're finally ready to listen.

If that's you...
If you've been on the fence...
If you've been hoping for a sign...

This is it.

Closes at midnight. #breathworktraining #breathhealingrelease #breathworkcoach

Someone asked me earlier: "Why are you doing a birthday discount?"

Here's the truth.

I've been through some incredibly tough stuff.

Years of pushing when my body was screaming at me to stop.

Burnout that left me unable to function.

Loss that broke me open.

Stress that felt like it might actually kill me.

And I know what it's like to need help but not know where to find it.

Or to find it... and not be able to afford it.

That's why I'm making my Deep Healing Activation Day £480 instead of £1000 for the next 48 hours.

Not because the work is worth less.

But because I remember what it felt like to be desperate for support and feel like it was out of reach.

This work - the Master BreathHealing Release™, the Molecular Hydrogen Therapy, the deep nervous system recalibration - it changed my life.

And I've watched it change the lives of everyone who's experienced it.

Jo came after her cancer diagnosis and said: "I can feel the emotional/subconscious shifts already. Slept beautifully, feeling more whole and connected."

Arzoo was drowning in overwhelm and left saying: "I'm not stressing myself anymore. Taking things in my stride. This was more POWERFUL than any coach I've worked with."

Lucy had been stuck for years. She walked out having made huge decisions, connected to her power in a way she'd never experienced.

If you've been through tough stuff...
If you're barely holding on...
If you know you need support but keep putting it off...

This is your moment.
£480 for 48 hours. Code: 48DEEP

Your body's been waiting.

Trust your gut. #breathworkacademy #breathworkfacilitator #breathhealingrelease

I realised the other day that I don’t often share exactly what we cover in the Influential Breathwork Coach certification.

Nor do I often share exactly how it is taught.

So, over the next few weeks, I’m going to rectify that!

On Monday evening we had a group breathe for the community, where one of our students, who is a fair way through the curriculum, led her first conscious connected breathwork session for others in the Academy.

These sessions are open to all students and graduates of ours, whether they are in or have completed Year 1, Year 2, or our soon to be Trainer levels.

In the first few sessions that someone leads, there are always some kinks to iron out! Tech issues, the delivery of the important contraindication information before the start of the breathe itself, and then leading a 30 minute or so deep session.


These can be incredibly powerful, with all sorts of insights and physical reactions happening. In many ways, breathwork can become even more freeing and releasing the more experience you have as a ‘breather’.

Which is why the ‘share’ section of the call is an intrinsic part of the session. By talking through the insights and experiences - the good, the bad, the ‘that was fucking weird’, it can help bring profound experiences and somatic releases into cognitive awareness…meaning that this work then has a direct impact on your day to day thinking and behaving, rather than just being a really cool, or strange, or enlightening experience you once had.

Anyway, I recently put together a new Syllabus booklet for 2026. If you’re curious, you can grab it below.⬇️
