Job and Founder Coach
Anna von der Forst
”I help leaders, creatives and founders get clarity on what they want and build the path to get there. With empathy, strategy, sharp thinking and enough humour to make the hard stuff feel less heavy.”
Coaching with me:
You’re at a crossroads. Maybe you’re questioning your current role, thinking about building something of your own, or simply wondering what’s next. You have a sense of where you want to go, but the path isn’t clear yet.
Hi, I’m Anna. I started my career in design, spent several years in leadership at a fast-growing scale-up, responsible for teams, processes & change and eventually
founded my own business. That journey gave me a real understanding of what it feels like to navigate uncertainty and complexity, make hard calls and build something from scratch.
What I bring to the table: I’m not only a coach, I’m also a strategist. I combine empathy and visionary thinking with structure and clear-headed analysis. That means we don’t just explore. We build. We figure out what you actually want and create a concrete plan that fits your life and your
ambitions.
Whether you’re navigating a career transition or building something of your own: Our sessions are a space where honest conversations meet real strategy. No fluff, no generic advice. Just clarity, direction and a next step you can act on.
Outside of work, you’ll find me on the tennis court or running through the woods. I have a soft spot for good books, fresh flowers and a really good specialty coffee from the local roastery. When I’m not at home, I’m somewhere out in the world (preferably in Copenhagen), exploring new
cultures and, above all, whatever the local food scene has to offer.
