This presentation will air on October 18th at 7 am (PST), 10 am (EST), 3 pm (UK), 4 pm (CET)


Originally from Adelaide, South Australia, I am a Conscious Parenting and Trauma-Informed Life Coach based in Munich, Germany, where I have lived for over 20 years. I’m passionate about helping adults and teens discover their self-worth, find relief from stress and anxiety, and have more meaningful and fulfilling relationships. 

I came to conscious parenting coaching as I navigated a period of major transition in my own life and found it incredibly supportive for me and my children through this time. The principles have fundamentally changed how I live and relate to others and have equipped me with greater self-compassion and self-trust. Getting to know my own patterns, shadows, triggers, and nervous system responses, a regular meditation practice and individual coaching have given me the tools to live more intentionally, authentically and to deepen my connection with my children and in all relationships. These are the tools I now share with my clients.

Hi I am Ana. When I became pregnant with my son Magnus, my life changed. Some changes were in the blink of an eye, the moment I saw that little pink plus sign. More changes rolled in over the coming months and years. Physical changes, emotional changes, psychological changes… I was experiencing a full on paradigm shift. Some were pretty straightforward and others pushed for deep reflection, and some continue to be discovered to this day. To understand what was happening, I started reading all the books, signed up for some courses, therapy and coaching sessions, more therapy, more coaching but most importantly I started to hear, pay attention and trust that little voice inside we also like to call intuition, our greatest power and inner guide. Parenting Greenhouse started to take form in 2015 after I realized how important all this work on the self is and what an amazing opportunity we have to break the patterns that no longer serve us. In order to grow and change we need to be brave and step forward in our own lives with intention. This is the greatest gift we can offer our children; we can free them from our projections and needs so they can grow and develop into who it is they truly are.

There were many phases and growth to Parenting Greenhouse, each brought me a wealth of knowledge that I use to guide my clients in every stage from pregnancy to labor support, childbirth education, parenting education, all the way to organizing and designing their nest.

I am a coach from the conscious parenting Institute by the Clinical Psychologist and Wisdom Teacher Dr Shefali. She changed my life compleatly 7 years ago and I now want to dedicate my life to the healing of other parents who loves and adore their children but somehow can not enjoy the journey and feel lost and misunderstood, as I once did and still feel in some moments. You see, conscious parenting is not about the perfect parent or child, it's about being connected and alined with your child and understand the childs needs moment by moment. We all come out of flow sometimes but it's the conscious parent who can go within and change, not the child but themselves so that they can become the anecdote to the scared, uncontrolled child we sometimes have infront of us, and start to feel that we are in charge of this wave so called our life.

I will help you see and feel the need that your child is "screaming" out for, as you are also learning to understand yourself in the same process.

Conscious parenting is a powerful process and could acctually improve every area in your life.
