Press & Client Testimonials
I’m an executive coach who’s passionate about helping my clients unlock their hidden potential and manifest their dream career.
She knows how to deal with the unexpected.
As a coach, Anna Urnova creates safe evocative spaces, where her clients connect to their core power, experience rapid transformations, and make the changes they’ve tried many times before and failed.
I recommend Anna without hesitation, and I salute her dedicated-caring approach to continually moving forwards.
I’m 51 years old. I have received a lot of advice and I have had the good fortune to receive a lot of good teaching from my multi-cultural networks (friends, family, church, professional education & work , coaching) which span across three languages (English, French, Italian).
I have found Anna’s coaching program to be so totally complete, concise, instructive, easy to get, across the multitude fabric of my human being. Most importantly for me is Anna’s understanding to connect to my higher purpose which can only (?) be achieved via Co-creation with a higher force/ energy.
The program is simple, immediate & concrete. Anna’s approach was 100% dedicated throughout the program – at all times I really felt Anna’s drive & commitment to support & guide me as I worked thru the program modules. I recall being astounded on occasions by Anna’s astuteness to capture my sticking points and to summarise and show the way forward.
Joining the coaching program, was like opening up the door to self-discovery and it was strange
Suddenly you start seeing multiple opportunities coming your way… It’s the power of positive reinforcing beliefs which makes those opportunities more clear and achievable.
In my case, I could give a purpose and vision to my inner calling. I was struggling for quite some time to make a positive move forward and 3 weeks into the program, I gathered enough courage to make a decision, which would get me started on my entrepreneurship journey and while on the program completed my deal of acquiring a company to realize my vision.
When I reflect back and connect the dots, it was the coaching sessions with Anna, which acted as catalyst to my decision making.
A big thank you to Anna for the fabulous work, she is doing and the great content she has curated for the course through her years of experience.
I couldn’t have selected a better coaching program than this one.
From the very first sessions it was clear that this would be transformational, and it would allow me to develop my passion and new career.
Through an amazing set of 121 coaching, invaluable tools, exercises, group calls, did the flow of the program not only lay out the path for change, but did this in a fun and uplifting way.
Trust me if I say that joining this program will not only guide you to identify and work towards your dream career, but it will help to shape your overall identity and apply the learnings in every aspect of your life. I know as this is exactly what happened to me 😊
Congrats and thank you again Anna for the life changing experience!
Anna has a unique combination of professional coaching and business mentoring skills.
The 3 months midcareer change program has been extremely valuable and has allowed me to take a step back, take stock, re-evaluate my professional journey as well as to crystallize the compelling vision and action plan for the future.
Anna’s coaching program has a very well thought-through structure and it supports your transformation at each step of the way. Anna has a humane & empathetic and yet a pragmatic coaching style. Anna will always let you know where you stand with achieving your goals and will call out your self sabotage. Anna’s insights and observation a very shrewd and clear.

It has been a true pleasure working with Anna.
She has a tremendous ability to push me out of my comfort zone, and her tailored advice has never ceased to amaze me.
Our work together has made an incredible difference in my career path.
I joined the coaching program just on time – when I was thinking about my vocation.
Corporate HR is definitely what I can do, but my key inspiration is to support individuals not corporations.
Anna’s program and coaching style is intensive and very structured. It gave me a clear roadmap of what I can and more importantly want to do, and allow me to experiment. For now I’ve a tool, which allow me to really manage my career based on my inspiration and do it in the safe mode.
I highly recommend Anna’s program for anyone, who want to have a real working tool for finding YOUR best place of work.
Dear Anna, I wanted to give you a little update …
I turned down a promotion to top management at the company I was working at just to quit my job, invest my own money and start a business from scratch.
Now, 1.5 years later we closed our first round of investment, are in the midst of setting up a holding company and securing our own technological IP, and I’ve just become a strategic shareholder in a company which 1 year ago was considered to be one of our competitors!
The reason I’m sharing this with you is because our sessions have helped me to establish guiding principles on how to go about making life changing decisions.
My starting point was to understand what “success” truly means to me.
I guess, this whole email can be summed up in one sentence: Thank you for helping me to cut through the bullshit and set my focus straight.

I can’t run out of praise for Anna Urnova.
I met her during a global executive career acceleration program and since then used her services several times when I had personal career dilemma, executive challenge or both. Anna proved to be incredibly helpful and insightful every time!
Anna’s greatest gift was her exceptional ability to always find options and turn challenges into stepping stones to something new and better.
I am a big fan of Anna’s coaching and strongly recommend her to anyone looking to upgrade your life and/or career.
I worked with Anna for 9 months and she was indispensable to my executive success!
Anna supported me in my first international assignment role where I had to manage crisis and turnaround the business. She helped me significantly upscale my executive presence in a foreign environment, while figuring the right approach to dealing with multiple stakeholders and balancing all that with demands of my family life.
With her coaching I managed to manage a career decision and negotiate the terms and conditions I deserved. Anna was a true support and inspiration and highly recommend her coaching to anyone!
Thanks to Anna, I got closer to the fullfilment of my business project.
Since I talked to her for the first time, I was aware of her enthusiasm and supportive attitude. The most important lesson I learnt during her Program is that the career shift process is not straight but it takes many turns and sometimes this obstacles can stop you completely.
But Anna made me find again engagement and passion every time I was frustrated or lost direction.
She encouraged me even in the worst moments, when I thought it was impossible. Even when I was about to give up, she took me by hand and showed me gain the right perspective.
Anna is a great professional and a profound human being you can fully trust.
She seems to see through things and gently stirs you to where you can find your true self.
For me personally, the coaching experience was truly life changing.
Good luck to you!

It was the right time.
