Coaching with Anna has been such a positive experience for me. It really resonated with me when she talked about being the director of your life and managing the various parts or actors. She’s supportive, insightful, and has helped me see real shifts in how I think and approach my life. I’m really grateful for her guidance and growth through sessions.

Working with Anna has been one of the best things I could do for myself and my family. I went to her feeling stuck and unable to show up as the parent I truly wanted to be, and she helped me uncover exactly what was hindering that progress.The most transformative part of our work was understanding how my "inner child" was influencing my daily reactions. Anna provided such a safe, supportive space to explore that relationship, giving me the tools to approach it with compassion rather than frustration. I feel much more grounded and present. I can't recommend her enough for anyone looking to heal and grow. Thank you Anna!!

Working with Anna has been a deeply transformative experience. She has a remarkable ability to create a safe, supportive space where I felt comfortable exploring the different parts that make up who I am. Her gentle guidance and insightful questions helped me understand myself on a much deeper level, bringing clarity to areas I hadn’t fully acknowledged before. Anna’s warmth, empathy, and professionalism made every session both grounding and empowering. I’m so grateful for the growth and self-awareness I’ve gained through her coaching.

Working with Anna has been profoundly healing. As a life coach, she has helped me build my own inner support system by reconnecting with my younger self and learning how to meet myself with love, compassion, and understanding.Through this work, I’ve developed the tools to support myself during challenging moments rather than feeling overwhelmed or alone. I’m incredibly grateful for this journey and highly recommend her.

From the moment I first met Anna, I knew I was in the presence of someone truly extraordinary. Joining her M.O.V.E program has been nothing short of transformative. From the very first session, her kindness, wisdom, and genuine care shone through.Anna has an incredible ability to make you feel completely seen, heard, and supported, even during the most challenging times. Working with her has helped me find clarity, confidence, and a sense of peace I didn't think was possible.Anna is more than a coach, she is a guiding light, a source of inspiration, and someone who genuinely changes lives. I am so grateful to have worked with her and highly recommend her to anyone seeking guidance and growth.

I’ve always been someone prone to anxiety, constantly anticipating what’s next. But working with Anna has taught me the incredible value of being fair and grounded—especially to myself. Anna guides you to access a calm, confident place within, helping you step fully into your own power. It’s an empowering journey that has genuinely changed my life.I’m deeply grateful to Anna for showing me how to show up authentically—as myself—and how that authenticity is not only okay but the key to leading myself toward success and true happiness. The treasure I was seeking was never outside—it was always inside me.

I had no idea how disconnected from myself I was until I started working with Anna. I was at a point of life where I felt stuck. Her gentle and insightful guidance helped me get out of my head in go inwards to process old feelings and emotions which were preventing me from moving forward. I feel lighter, clear headed and ready to move forward and onwards in my life!I highly recommend Anna to anyone feeling stuck or needing guidance for the next step in their life. She creates a warm and supportive space to help navigate your thoughts in.

Working with Anna has been revelatory. Through her deep wisdom, generous warmth, and intuitive guidance, she draws on many different modalities and her own unique experience to help you make meaningful shifts—not just in how you approach life, but in your actual life. Anna isn't just a coach—she's a guide and a healer whose kindness and insight help you access places in yourself you didn't know were there. She has an extraordinary ability to help you distill your core values and actually live them, while uncovering parts of yourself you didn't even know existed. Whether you come to her seeking productivity strategies or deeper transformation, Anna meets you where you are and shows you what you actually need. I'm so grateful to have had this experience working with her!

I had been seeing Anna since mid April this year.Before my first session, I even doubt that “will this work?” or “I bet that this is going to be the same”, but I gave it a try anyway.In my first 5 minutes in my first session I was still “not too sure” - but the rest of the session had literally crushed my doubts. I knew that I had made the right decision and Anna is very professional in her area and work.Every session with her I gained more clarity, more insight about myself and everything else - and I could never achieve it if I were to do it by myself.Recently there was a period where I almost give up (yes, this journey is a difficult one!), but she never forced through and validate my feelings. She continued to help and guide me in unfolding all events. In our last session couple days ago, I could finally break through this barrier and I finally feel like I am now at “another stage”.I highly recommend Anna if you need help and I believe that it will never be a wrong decision to have her in guiding you.Looking forward to see Anna in our next sesh!

My M.O.V.E journey with Anna was incredibly rewarding on multiple levels. Before starting the program, I felt stuck in various aspects of my life and lacked clarity on how to process my emotions. Through this experience, I gained a deeper understanding of emotional management, which has significantly improved my relationships with family and friends. Physically, I’ve become more active and have adopted healthier eating habits. I highly recommend it.

I have just finished the M.O.V.E. Programme with Anna and it has been amazing.From the very first call with Anna I have felt connected and heard.The programme has taught me so much about myself, how I process emotions, boundaries and how to uphold them. I loved the nutrition module and have made changes to my daily routine that have stayed beyond the programme.Her informative and gentle approach to each module makes it easy to understand and simple techniques and actions to implement.I have loved being apart of the MOVE community and really enjoyed the weekly calls (walks in nature), a chance to learn but also connect with other fabulous women.The course has been so varied and covered many different aspects of emotional, mental and physical health. It has inspired me to learn more.Having been stuck in a negative cycle for nearly a decade Anna has finally helped me see myself beyond that which was holding me back. I feel like I can finally move forward.I cannot rate this course and her guidance highly enough. Do it! You’ll feel supported, held, heard and inspired.Thank you Anna for such a freeing experience. I am excited to see how the next chapter unfolds. I’m manifesting all the way!

If you looking for a coach, and it feels like Anna is for you, DO IT!Anna is brilliant at meeting you where you are and guiding you back to yourself. It’s an experience in self compassion and in understanding who you are, not what the external noisy world has made you think you are.Your future self will thank you.

I highly recommend you reach out to Anna; she is a brilliant life coach. She has developed her own resources based on well-researched theory that she not only believes in but also applies herself, and it works. I was lucky enough to be a part of M.O.V.E. and met a wonderful group of supportive people during the process. When I met Anna, I came in broken, carrying too much, scared of vulnerability, and overwhelmed. During the process, Anna helped me heal. I felt a significant change in myself. I said sorry less. I put my needs first. I felt happiness, and I was present. My language also changed, and I have noticed it flowing down to my kids—who have noticed the shift in my energy. This has all come without giving my loved ones less; if anything, I can now give them more. I notice my needs too, and I create boundaries allowing me to continue to give. I am feeling fulfilled. Thanks, Anna

Anna is a powerhouse of knowledge and life experience, her passion and commitment to the M.O.V.E program is obvious in every single session and more. It was such an enjoyable experience and what I’ve taken away from the program will stick with me well into the future. I’m so grateful for the experience and all the little changes I’ve made are benefiting not just myself but my family too. Thank you Anna, your support is so appreciated. To anyone feeling lost or stuck mentally, physically and emotionally, that first phone call with Anna is a must, she’ll guide you in the right direction. ❤️

From the moment I spoke to Anna I felt completely comfortable and at ease. The tools she has taught me throughout each session have helped me phenomenally in overcoming the emotional trauma I had within for many many years. I finally feel free of that emotional baggage that I have dragged alongside me for so long now. She’s given me the techniques to use to overcome not only the now traumas but for any future challenges that come my way. She helped me in making peace with my past to allow me to see the strength I have and be truely happy within. I have been in the mental health system for years from therapists, counselling & psychologists. Not even the meds they so quickly handed out compares to the progress I made in the sessions iv had with Anna. A short time with Anna I have learnt 300% more than any of the help i tried to reach out to. Anna teaches you the tools and guides you through digging deep to be able to get to that core issue.Instead of just talking over and over about the same problem, she is able to help you make peace with the past.If you are someone with any kind of emotional trauma, I 100% HIGHLY recommend Anna, her talents In helping you heal and her teachings in the tools to take charge of your own mind have saved me and set me free!!! I cannot thankyou enough Anna! I will have these tools with me for life to always return to when in times of need!!Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou 🙏🙏

Anna has been incredible to work with.I’ve had plenty of ups and downs throughout my journey with Anna. She’s has taught me skills to deal with these situations and understand emotions.

I’ll look forward to continuing my journey and developing other skills.Thank you so much

Anna's coaching has been life-changing for me. With her understanding and practical guidance, I've made a lot of progress in knowing myself and reaching my goals. She's helped me feel more connected, experience meaningful changes, and find joy in small moments. Anna's approach is easy to relate to but also very impactful. I highly recommend Anna to anyone looking to make positive change in their life. Thank you Anna.

MOVE is truly a life-changing experience. It did not solve all of my problems in four months; I am not a super model nor have I reached a higher astral plane, but what I have gained is worth so much more. I now believe, with Anna’s help, I have built a toolkit to survive and thrive on the next part of my journey. Most of all, instead of becoming who I thought I wanted to be, I have been given the gifts of self appreciation and presence. I can now enjoy every second with my young son, instead of over analysing everything. I no longer feel like I am living in the future, in fear of my past and I am very sensitive to times when my behaviour does not align to my goals and values.

Anna is one of the most clever and compassionate people I have met.I'm a 64 yr old nurse.For the past 25 yrs I have been trying to find a way to address my life issues and move forward in a meaningful way."VALUES" BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!...Always struggled with this. Now I know what mine are. I always had "kind of an idea" but now I really know and can illiterate them clearly.Anna delivers her coaching in various ways.The major one is walking in nature whist listening to and sharing infoThe latest cog health stuff I have accessed says moving/exercising whilst listening to educational materialis very powerful.Anna offers 1:1 counselling. I have done alot of this over my life but the sessions I had with Anna just made me feel so much better about me.Connecting with the gorgeous women of my M.O.V.E. experience was lovely.I can only say that if you need to MOVE on in your life...Anna will help you do It!!!Anna

Anna helped me fall back in love with life again, she inspired, motivated and pushed me out of my comfort zone when I felt like I was in a stagnant part of my life. She helped me discover what the true meanings of emotions are and why they are there as well as grounding myself in times of stress. Through her I made connections with other women that I know will last a life time and it is so comforting to know that not only was she an amazing life coach, but an amazing friend whose connection I will treasure forever.

One of the best things I did in 2023 was connecting with Anna and I am really grateful for the support Anna has given to enable me to really know and understand myself. Anna has really shown me how to see myself clearly and compassionately, understand my drivers (good and bad) and to make conscious choices. I highly recommend Anna's coaching services!

I completed the M.O.V.E course in December of 2023 after reaching out to Anna earlier in the year. My concern finding a coach was making sure I found one that I clicked with. After our first chat, I just knew she was the right one.Where I started before M.OV.E: 😩- Mental health struggles- No love for self- No compassion for self (self critic)- Afraid to fail- Easily giving my power away- Beliefs of being a bad mum- Not keen to ask for help (like to do things on my own, rather than "put others out")- People pleaser- No understanding how to set boundaries let alone hold them- No goals and passion for anything- Loss of myself after traumatic event and after kids- I would suppress my emotions to not feel or show others "weakness"- Fear of vulnerability- Not strong enough- Focused on the past or futureIts safe to say with that list I needed help, reaching out to Anna was the biggest blessing I could've asked for.After M.O.V.E:😁- Starting to love myself again- To love waking up in the mornings- To be unapologetically me- Letting my walls down- Understanding of boundaries and how to set them- Define what I value and set goals that I'm excited to do- PRESENT, such a big one I learnt!- Learning about emotions, and allowing myself to feel.- My communication and overall aura was different to my family/friends and especially my kids.- Met some amazing M.O.V.E women which honestly shaped my journey. They were my rock without even knowing it.The list could go on for ages...Why Anna or why M.O.V.E?❓- She speaks from the heart not through a tick and flick of a book.- She relates, through her own experiences.- She is kind, compassionate and truly cares. Everything you would want in a coach and in a friend.- She has created a community of men/women that are vulnerable enough to tell their own story and empower each other. 💪- M.O.V.E will give you all the tools you need to make that change in your life that you want and deserve.My only advice for anyone ready to sign up... be FULLY immersed in what the program has for you. I promise you, you won't regret it. ❤️Thank you Anna, for everything. You have changed my life in so many ways. I have gained a life coach but also a life long friend. ❤️

Earlier this year I completed Anna’s MOVE program and my life is in a completely different place. I went from being debilitated by Long COVID symptoms and completely disheartened about how I can accomplish everything I want out of life while being so restricted in my abilities. Not to mention how lost I felt about my career. Anna worked with me on long suppressed feelings from my childhood and even in that fist 1:1 I felt a shift in how I saw my future. Anna helped me separate myself from the symptoms I was experiencing so I can eventually let them go and not internalise them making the chronic condition permanent. The ladies in the MOVE program were also a great source of support for life’s ups and downs. We all cheered each other on and shared tips on how to achieve our common goals. Finally to topics discussed in MOVE were a great summary of how to lead a healthy life - both physically and mentally. While I have come across most of those topics before in my own journey to healing, going over them in a structured and intensive way was a great way to ‘reset’ my life course. By the end of the program I had achieved some huge life milestones including getting engaged to the man of my dreams and us buying our first family home together. I advocated myself with my doctors until they found a plan forward to manage my symptoms. Which allowed me to have more energy and accomplish career - related goal. A huge thanks to Anna for helping me through a difficult time. I’ll always be grateful.

Thankyou Anna! The last 4 months have been awesome! I have grown into a better version of myself thanks to your guidance and the support and openness of the other men in our MOVEM group! I particularly enjoyed the relationship workshop, my partner and I took away so many positives from that. Our connection is deeper and stronger than ever.Thanks again to you Anna, and my fellow MOVEM men, I feel like I have gained 6 new brothers and a wonderful sister/friend/mentor/coach for life.

Anna has a way of working with people that makes you feel instantly comfortable, seen and understood. Her approach to coaching is empathetic and non-judgmental, while (gently) calling you out on the patterns and behaviour that are holding you back from your fullest potential.I participated in Anna’s last round of M.O.V.E, and saw positive changes in my life from the very first week. Anna helped me step into my true self, in a way years of therapy never has. She motivated me to put words into action, and is now a welcome voice in the back of my mind on a daily basis, pushing my to make choices based off my values, and to continue to learn more about myself.Anna has been a catalyst for so much growth in myself, and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her!

Anna has a beautiful, down-to-Earth AND inspiring approach to her coaching. I have been working with Anna for the last couple of months and have experienced monumental shifts in my life. I was experiencing a very difficult time in my life when i started the M.O.V.E. program with Anna and now I feel lighter, calmer, more connected to my emotions and clearer in my decision-making. My relationships are more easeful and I am finding joy in places I never expected!I have so much gratitude for Anna ✨️❤️

I am very pleased tp provide an endorsement for Anna. She is a great coach and helped me to understand so much about myself.Her style and manner are ideal for this role: understanding, non-judgemental and interested in teaching in a non-intrusive manner.Anna's work with me developed the connection between body, mind and the sub-conscious leading to powerful changes in the way I view myself and the manner in which I engage with the world.First rate.Very rewarding to meet and work with her.

Anna’s coaching is life changing, when I came to her I felt depressed and stuck and like there was nothing to look forward to, and she gave me a safe space to express my feelings, and guide me along a path to feeling like I matter, learning about emotions and self-soothing and it gave me the spark I needed to really engage with my life again. If you are thinking of working with her, just do it – you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

I would highly recommend Anna Baylis as a life coach.

I met Anna in 2020. We were both TCI students at that time. Anna offered to be my coach. I accepted. I was in distress over different troubles in my life. Anna used her wisdom, intuition, and life skills to coach me. She kept me on track and would gently draw me back to the subject at hand if I took off on what I call a rabbit trail during a coaching session. Anna has a vibrancy, a joy in life, and insight that helped get me through some very rough times. She helped me with goal setting, and patiently led me to to get me throughsome murky waters in my life. She helped me to find an inner peace, and to start believing in my self.Anna is gifted as a life coach and as a health coach. If you choose Anna as a coach you will not regret it.Respectfully,Dana KellyCalifornia, U.S.A.

The best thing I ever did was go to Anna not only has helped me with my fitness but she has become important to me as someone who listens without judgement and genuinely cares for her customers. Recently went on a retreat with Anna and it has helped me make some very important changes to myself. Taking care of me I can take care of my family. And you taught me that Anna Bayliss..

Despite having had help from a psychologist and trauma counsellor and completing a counselling degree, I hadn't realised how much emotional pain I was still holding onto 40+ years later. Working with Anna allowed me to go back, without needing to talk about the actual events, and to determine whether I wanted to get rid of or change the events. Changing them was so freeing as was finding ways to forgive myself and others. I feel as if I have put down all my emotional baggage, ready to run freely through the fields of life.She has an amazing presence that makes you feel safe, understood and empowered to make the changes to move on freely.

Anna is a positive, encouraging influence, not just during training, it also filters through to my life in general. I love that training is semi outside and not in a commercial gym, this makes the environment feel warm and welcoming.

Anna's group fitness classes are just what I need. She always keeps up to date with our fitness and health progress. The female only atmosphere also makes it less uncomfortable and you have a sense of sisterhood. Highly recommend.

I love Anna's all-women group class. We have so much fun that it feels much "easier" to get through a workout than it would slogging it out in the gym (but I'm sure we actually work harder). Anna uses interval training, and her creative ideas for variations of different exercises seem endless, so it's impossible to be bored. Anna herself is really down-to-earth, kind, and caring - she motivates without being a drill sergeant, and keeps a close eye on technique to make sure you're doing the exercises correctly and safely. Her gym is outdoors, which I was initially skeptical about but it's been great to get out in the fresh air, even over winter - it makes you realise that our weather is not always that bad! Kids are welcome to hang around if need be, so that makes it really easy for homeschooling mums, school holidays, or expected/unexpected days off school.

Loves Anna's training style and flexibility!! Would definitely recommend! She has a vast knowledge or all exercises and mixes things up to keep you motivated.
Here is one of my favourite reviews. I brings me so much joy to help guide people from where they are in life, that is with all the challenges and struggles to the other side where life is beautiful!!
“I completed the M.O.V.E course in December of 2023 after reaching out to Anna earlier in the year. My concern finding a coach was making sure I found one that I clicked with. After our first chat, I just knew she was the right one”.
Where I started before M.OV.E: 😩
– Mental health struggles
– No love for self
– No compassion for self (self critic)
– Afraid to fail
– Easily giving my power away
– Beliefs of being a bad mum
– Not keen to ask for help (like to do things on my own, rather than “put others out”)
– People pleaser
– No understanding how to set boundaries let alone hold them
– No goals and passion for anything
– Loss of myself after traumatic event and after kids
– I would suppress my emotions to not feel or show others “weakness”
– Fear of vulnerability
– Not strong enough
– Focused on the past or future
Its safe to say with that list I needed help, reaching out to Anna was the biggest blessing I could’ve asked for.
After M.O.V.E:😁
– Starting to love myself again
– To love waking up in the mornings
– To be unapologetically me
– Letting my walls down
– Understanding of boundaries and how to set them
– Define what I value and set goals that I’m excited to do
– PRESENT, such a big one I learnt!
– Learning about emotions, and allowing myself to feel.
– My communication and overall aura was different to my family/friends and especially my kids.
– Met some amazing M.O.V.E women which honestly shaped my journey. They were my rock without even knowing it.
The list could go on for ages…
Why Anna or why M.O.V.E?❓
– She speaks from the heart not through a tick and flick of a book.
– She relates, through her own experiences.
– She is kind, compassionate and truly cares. Everything you would want in a coach and in a friend.
– She has created a community of men/women that are vulnerable enough to tell their own story and empower each other. 💪
– M.O.V.E will give you all the tools you need to make that change in your life that you want and deserve.
My only advice for anyone ready to sign up… be FULLY immersed in what the program has for you. I promise you, you won’t regret it. ❤️
Thank you Anna, for everything. You have changed my life in so many ways. I have gained a life coach but also a life long friend. ❤️
