FREE 34-MINUTE MASTERCLASS REPLAY

Close the gap between who you are being and the woman you want to be.

You know the conversations you keep replaying.

The yes you wanted to be a no.

The things you keep doing because they look right on paper even when they no longer feel like you.

You’ve tried to change them. Yet when guilt, pressure or somebody else’s opinion enters the room, there you are again.

Lead Yourself First helps you explore that gap AND where to start closing it.

Originally delivered as a paid masterclass for WFWP Australia, this recording is now available to watch free.

Before you give me 34 minutes, let me introduce myself.

I’m Anna Thellmann. And I know what it’s like to have the knowledge and still lose your connection to yourself.

After building a coaching career in the UK, I moved to China for love. What followed included the grief of my fifth miscarriage, COVID isolation and financial dependence for the first time in my adult life.

Then I found myself in a supermarket questioning whether I deserved a two-dollar bottle of nail polish remover.

Two dollars. And somehow, I needed permission.

One thought became very clear:

“No. Not like this.”

Rebuilding my relationship with myself shaped the work I do today: helping women reconnect with themselves and practise becoming the woman they want to be—including when life gets uncomfortable.

I bring more than a decade of coaching experience, international client work and my Body–Mind–Energy approach to that work.

Your circumstances may look different from mine. But perhaps you recognise the feeling of wondering where you went in the life you’re living.

Understand the gap

Explore how what matters to you relates to how you behave and why your efforts to change can feel disconnected from the woman you want to be.

Make HER more than an idea

What would respecting yourself look like in that conversation? What would honesty sound like when you’re tempted to say “it’s fine”?

Find your starting point

Meet RICH: Respect, Integrity, Credibility and Honesty. Use these values to explore one practical question:

“Who do I want to be here?”

A reflection from the live masterclass

“You made me really think actually yeah respecting your needs isn’t a selfish thing.”

Give yourself 34 minutes to start somewhere different.

Bring the situation you keep replaying, the yes you wish had been a no, or the feeling that how you’re living no longer quite fits.

We’ll start there. No need to reorganise your entire personality before lunch.

You’ll go straight to the replay. I’ll also email you a link so you can come back to it.

By signing up, you’ll receive access to the masterclass replay and subscribe to the Bridge the GAP newsletter. You can unsubscribe from emails at any time.

Watch free until 25 October 2026 at 10 a.m. China time (UTC+8).

And when you want help putting it into practice…

The masterclass gives you somewhere to start.

Identity Upgrade is where we work with the feelings, thoughts and doubts that show up when you try to do things differently and practise bringing the woman you want to be into your everyday life.

Six weeks. A maximum of eight women. Our first session begins on 25 October at 10 a.m. China time.

You’ll find the programme details on the replay page. First, come and experience how I teach.
