4. Working with Open To Create... was great and, it's an experience that I would
recommend to anyone wanting to bring purpose, clarity and enjoyment to
their creative projects and business. I found Anna to be a highly imaginative coach,
the exercises and tools that she gave me not only helped me to become
more focused and more organised, they also helped me to fuel my
creativity and be mindful not to underestimate the importance of having fun.
It's not all about fun though and Anna won't mollycoddle you, she is
also a straight talking coach and she can be relied on to be direct if
she thinks you are being stubborn or avoidant in any way.
Anna was also incredibly generous with her time, each week she emailed
notes from our sessions as well as a list of tasks to complete. These
notes were invaluable, they meant that I was free to listen fully during
our sessions, without worrying that I would forget something, and they
have been an invaluable resource to refer back to.
Thank you Anna & Open To Create...

I have been quietly assertive stating the facts and being clear about
what I wanted. As a result I have been respected and given more
than I asked for. It all feels very tingly and exciting” Writer, trainer,

“Anna's coaching was fantastic. It helped me think clearly and creatively. Working freelance can be very
hard, there is no obvious career path and goals can sometimes come adrift, but the coaching
process with Anna has ensured that I have a clear direction, increased confidence and have made
important life decisions which are now bearing fruit.
Thank you!” March 19, 2012
