About Ann Yang

Career Transition Coach | Former Finance Business Partner | Chartered Accountant at Self-employed

After spending 10 years building an international career in finance, I've experienced the excitement of career growth, the uncertainty of major life transitions, and the courage it takes to intentionally choose a different path.

Today, I'm a Co-Active coach in training and Chartered Accountant, passionate about supporting professionals who are navigating career transitions, questioning what's next, or trying to build a career that's aligned with who they are, not just what looks successful on paper.

Whether you're changing careers, adapting to a new country or workplace, or simply feeling stuck despite doing all the "right" things, I'd love to be a thinking partner. My approach isn't about giving you all the answers, but helping you find the clarity and confidence to make decisions that feel authentic to you.

If our conversation leaves you seeing yourself or your next step a little more clearly, I'll consider it time well spent.

Sessions with Ann Yang

• General coaching (60 min): You don't need to have everything figured out before coming to a coaching session. You may have a specific challenge you'd like to work through, a decision you're facing, or simply a feeling that something needs to change. This 60-minute session is an open space to explore whatever feels most important to you - whether it's related to career, relationships, personal growth, confidence, life transitions, or something else entirely. We'll start with what you'd like to focus on and take the conversation from there. Through questions, reflection, and exploration, I'll support you in looking at your situation from different perspectives, connecting with what matters to you, and discovering your own way forward. There is no fixed agenda and I won't tell you what you should do. You can expect a thoughtful, confidential conversation centred on you, with the possibility of leaving with greater clarity, a new perspective, or a next step that feels meaningful to you. Come as you are, and bring whatever you'd like to explore.
• Career Transition Success (45 min): Career transitions can bring excitement, uncertainty, and a lot of questions. Whether you're considering a career change, feeling stuck in your current path, or simply wondering what's next, this session offers a space to slow down and explore what really matters to you. We'll start with what brings you here and what you'd like to get from our conversation. From there, we'll explore your current situation, the possibilities or challenges you're facing, and what might be getting in the way of moving forward. Rather than telling you what you should do, I'll use a coaching approach to help you uncover your own perspectives, priorities, and possibilities. You can expect to leave with greater clarity, a fresh perspective, or a meaningful next step to take forward.

Ann helped me see how my marketing experience could also be useful in business development. She also helped me understand my core values, like honesty, making an impact, and getting results. What I really liked was how she helped me see my own potential.”
