Meet the Founder

Anne Hellgren

Hi there!

Anne Hellgren is an internationally certified Empowerment Coach, author, speaker, and podcast host with a passion for helping individuals gain clarity, confidence, communication skills, and an empowered mindset — so they can create lives rooted in purpose and power.

With a personal and professional journey shaped across Kenya, Ethiopia, Sweden, and the UK, Anne brings a rich cultural lens and a deeply empathetic voice to her work. Her approach is warm, grounded, and rooted in real-life experience — including her own story of healing from trauma, breaking free from limiting patterns and rising with clarity and faith.

Today, Anne is the founder of Anne Hellgren Coaching, where she works with individuals and groups to help them overcome self-doubt, navigate life transitions, and build meaningful relationships — starting with the one they have with themselves.

She is also the author of Guided Into Purpose — an inspiring memoir that invites readers to reflect on their own lives through heartfelt storytelling and powerful insights. Through her own journey — from navigating the highs of privilege to facing personal and family struggles — Anne reveals how adversity can become the springboard for growth, resilience, and empowerment. Guided Into Purpose is more than a memoir; it’s a beacon of hope for those daring to dream, overcome obstacles, and live authentically.

Anne holds a BSc in Counselling Psychology and an MSc in Occupational and Organisational Psychology. Before launching her coaching practice, she spent 14 years in international sales and business development, gaining deep insights into human behaviour, communication, and high-performance mindsets.

Her podcast, The Love You Want – It Starts With You, has produced over 150 episodes and ranked in the Top 20 most listened-to podcasts on Spotify globally. Anne also speaks at business events, facilitates empowerment training for her church group, and serves on the board of Tavistock Relationships. This non-profit delivers and develops high-quality therapeutic services for couples and families, as well as training and research in couple and family dynamics.

She is a co-author of Dare to Ignite Your Dreams, and her work has earned her a nomination for the Women in Business – Speaker of the Year Award 2024. She has also co-produced and hosted Purple Coach Conversations, a thought-provoking series exploring diversity, inclusion, and equality.

Above all, Anne is known for her compassion, authenticity, and unwavering belief in every individual’s ability to grow, heal, and thrive.

When she’s not coaching or creating content, Anne loves spending time with her two children — whether exploring new places, diving into a swimming pool, or enjoying cosy nights in with home-cooked meals and laughter.
