About the speaker
Anna is a storytelling coach helping purpose-driven entrepreneurs and creators become more impactful leaders by connecting to their story. Since launching her coaching business in 2017, she has helped hundreds of people around the world gain confidence in their voice through private coaching, workshops, and now The Story Circle, a global membership community filled with storytelling workshops, open mics, and more.
Based in Tucson, Arizona, raised in France, and the daughter of Armenian immigrants, Anna calls herself a shameless truthteller and spiritual seeker. For those who appreciate traditional street cred, she holds a bachelor’s degree in Political Science from the University of Arizona and a master’s in urban planning from the American University of Beirut. But clearly, she doesn’t believe that a degree should dictate her career path.

The truth will set you free! For me in my journey, everything started from a place of actually telling the truth first to myself, and then to others. And from that place you can make different decisions.
Can we actually be honest with how things are going now and not make decisions today in the hope for some bananas future... Can we just be in the now with how things are actually going and be honest?
Can we actually believe that what we've seen, witnessed, tasted, smelled — whatever — in our lives is that good enough to make us credible to speak.
