I used to say, “I think I can see the light at the end of this tunnel. Oh, wait, that’s just another train- F%$K!!!
It is amazing how fast and slow eight years can roll by.
I didn’t realize the journey that I was meant to take in this lifetime and I have to say I wouldn’t change it one bit because it landed me be where I am now with the amazing kids I have, the friends that brought joy back into my life, and with healed (healing) relationships.
I genuinely feel I am doing what I was put on this earth to do, help lift up others to see that they have the strength to live their authentic lives.
Time does amazing things, it tests us, bringing pain, laughter, happiness and healing.
👇 Tell me below if you can relate or if you’d rather not, know that I get it and I see you. 😘
As a coach, I feel it’s so important to walk the talk—and I’ve found the best way to do that is by building habits I actually crave.
Balance? That’s a constant check-in. But when I create rhythms that support my mind, body, and work, I feel more in flow and that makes space for what matters most.
Here are the things I’m prioritizing this summer to stay grounded, keep moving, and laugh often with the people I love. 💛
What’s one habit you’re craving or a priority you’re holding close this summer?

My book club recently became a podcast club—shifting from Girls Who Read to Ladies Who Listen.
Our first listen? Liz Moody’s episode with Dr. Anna Lembke on dopamine addiction.
Lembke explains how our brains are wired to balance pleasure and pain—but modern habits tip that balance, leaving us stuck in cycles of overconsumption and low satisfaction. Knocking us out of homeostasis.
From reaching for our phones before we even get out of bed to needing caffeine and sugar to “feel normal,” we’re chasing dopamine hits that ultimately leave us feeling less alive.
What’s one small way you’re choosing presence over instant pleasure?

🏆Chasing perfection landed me in burnout and resentment.
🧚♀️The real magic started when I chose to be authentic, not perfect.

Happy Friday Y’all
It’s been a busy week. I’m so grateful to have started it @celeste.farms doing yoga with @erin_frye while serenaded by @colinandcaroline and the great friends that joined me.
Then getting to network with my VA @icfheadquarters coaching crew hosted by @innerworkcenter then race off to support the awesome agents @nestrealtyrichmond.
Throw in working out with friends, coaching, seeing my kids and rounding out my Friday with a reiki session with @thebell.garden.
I’m feeling pretty darn lucky.
♻️Your mind will keep recycling old thoughts until you teach it something new.
💡Beginning to notice negative self talk is the first step to change it.
🕺🏽Movement breaks the cycle and reminds your brain who’s in charge.
🎵 Choose your favorite hype song and move your body, even 30 seconds can shift your mind and change your state.
📣Sometimes the loudest thing in the room is our own self-doubt.
🧠We spend so much time in our heads, disconnected from our bodies. Science shows us that the heart holds real power.
🫀When we drop out of our head and into our heart we allow our intuition to guide us to a more rational perspective.
🎵 What’s your go-to reset song?

😫 Anxiety flips your brain into threat mode to keep you safe.
💡It sets off ancient wiring we developed to protect us that our modern minds don’t always properly regulate.
🕺🏽Movement helps shake us out of our heads and drop into our bodies allowing us space to sort out what is the true and what we are inflating.
✂️ This gets you clear headed so you can decide if you need to stay friends with an anxiety that’s protecting your or cut out anxiety that’s not telling you the truth.

🥹Emotions like anxiety aren’t the enemy, they’re signals.
💃🏼When we stop resisting and start moving with the feeling, we shift from reactivity to regulation.
🎼Music helps sync the mind and body, grounding us back in awareness and choice.
⏰Next time anxiety stirs, instead of getting spun up, pay attention to what your body has to say.

You’d think a realtor would know better than to skip water remediation during a renovation and hindsight would tell you you’d be right.
We don’t always know or make the best decisions and we learn the hard (and soggy) way.
Three floods later, I finally stopped trying to outsmart Mother Nature and started doing it right.
Progress isn’t always pretty—but it is brave.
Give yourself grace, grab a sledgehammer, and keep it moving.

💡Excitement fades without action💡
I see it all the time—someone books a clarity call, feels inspired, but then the fear of truly showing up for themselves creeps in.
I get it. We’ve all been there.
Growth happens when YOU *decide* to take that next step.
You don’t have to do it alone—I’m here to walk the path beside you. ✨💛

I say it often… even coaches need a coach! ✨
As I’m sharing here with one of the coaches that keeps me in line, @laurenmagenta, keeping up good habits isn’t always easy. And let’s be real—January tested a lot of us!
When I fall out of my good habits, I feel out of balance. I don’t show up as my best self, and it impacts everything.
So, I’m hitting reset this February and bringing back my morning meditation. ☀️✨
What’s one habit you’re recommitting to this month? Let’s do this together! ⬇️💬

COACHES NEED COACHES TOO!
🗓️Back in February of this year, my coach friend Mary Zahorsky of @zvisioncoach and I were finding ourselves struggling a bit after coming off of our October 2023 retreat.
📈We felt like we weren’t reaching the goals that we had set for ourselves so we decided to become accountability partners and chose the app Marco Polo as our platform.
‼️It’s been NINE MONTHS of us corresponding DAILY lifting each other up.
⏰In that time, we have supported each other in far outpacing our goals. Among our achievements, Mary launches her Drift Less. Manifest More. retreat in magical Stockholm, WI on 11.14.24 and I’ve written a course called The Stress Reset that I will facilitate at the @innerworkcenter in Richmond, VA in 2025.
🌴Before all of that, we are headed to Spain for our 2024 @radiancepartners retreat in Madrid.
👯♀️I love how our friendship has blossomed out of us supporting each other. We have discovered that we share a similar wanderlust.
⛰️So much so that ahead of the retreat we are meeting up to explore Spain. Mary heads to Lund, SE for a fairytale ball before checking out my favorite city, Copenhagen, DK and then picking me up in Granada, ES.
💃🏼I’m excited to bring you along on our adventure
🧳I’ve got 10 days to get my s@%t together. Time to get packing!
🛞I GOT A FLAT TIRE ON I-64 AT RUSH HOUR - SO WHY AM I SMILING??
👵🏻 Old Annie wouldn’t have been smiling, it would have derailed her whole weekend!
🧘🏼♀️The Annie Dietz, she get’s it. It’s about perspective and patience. We have control over our reactions to things.
✨ I called three towing companies no one could come, we were in a very dangerous spot with no shoulder.
😵💫Instead of getting worked up, I decided to see how bad the flat was and drive to the next exit.
🤯As I was doing this, my dear friend and old neighbor, nickthewhat happend to drive by and stopped.
💗We got to a safe spot and as we were changing the tire good samaritan Larry offered to help as well.
💰I saved money and time waiting when the tow companies were too busy to help
🎓My son got a lesson in how to change a tire and how to stay calm in a stressful situation
💪Bonus while I do know how to change a tire I didn’t have to
🌞It wasn’t raining in fact it was a beautiful day
⏱️It was all finished in 20 minutes and we were on our way
🪐In my daily meditation, I take time to feel the gratitude I have for the ways in which the Universe is always conspiring in my favor.
📖If you are interested in reading more about my POV on Perspective, Patience or Manifestation, check out my blog posts, the link is in my bio.
When I first became a coach, my 15+ years as a Real Estate Broker led me to work primarily with new agents.
Many Realtors don’t realize becoming an agent means you’ve signed up to be an entrepreneur and business owner.
It takes real dedication to get up every day and find your next sale. I’ve been fortunate to work with agents like Peter, who truly care, invest in their craft, and serve their clients well.
It’s been exciting to watch his career take off, knowing I was there with him as he was building his foundation.
Sorry to say, but not really, being perfect is total b.s and something no sane person should strive to be. Be honest with yourself and know when you’re having a crazy day and the best thing to do is give yourself grace that’s great! As long as you also recognize when maybe you’re slacking on your goals and step it up a bit. 😘
😵💫I was a successful entrepreneur, mother, and wife; I was doing it all and I was FRAZZLED
😕I refused help, instead suffering alone in survival mode and lived in resentment
🥰I chose to get out of the unhealthy relationship I had with myself by brining my self-destructive patterns to light
😍Setting boundaries has helped me see that I can give more to others when I first make time for myself
🤩Now as a successful entrepreneur, I use my skills as a certified life coach, my small business experience, and my intuition to help women suffering from living in survival as I was
😘We all deserve to show up as THE most authentic version of ourselves, it isn’t selfish, its healthy!
👇Comment below if you agree or DM me to schedule a free Clarity Call. I want to hear your story♥️
Are you ready to follow through on your vision for 2024?
Some of you joined myself and @well_come_om for our Vision Boarding class a few weeks ago. We are ready to take you to the next level!
If you're local to RVA and ready to focus on yourself, please join us for our Sunday Self Care Series. This Sunday the 21st @ 11am. 🔗 in bio with details
you deserve to take time for yourself!
Wow! this is a great example of trying out new software and having it NOT work! Building a business is hard work.
Thanks a lot constant contact... for not much! All of this software that claims integration and shortcuts to make our lives easier... then it sends a hyperlink in Instagram!?
Even I know that won't work 😂 You have to laugh I guess. This was supposed to publish a great article I wrote about some really great new professional experiences I have had recently, including a class I am facilitating through March with some amazing colleagues.
Until I work out the kinks... 🔗 in bio to read my story
Last week @thedripbar.rva saved my life!! I was coming down with what I have coined to be Fluvid🤷🏼♀️ if it wasn’t for their Flu Fighter drip I wouldn’t have been able to facilitate my Vision Boarding class with @well_come_om. Thanks for saving the day @sophiasalanova & @tmoneyhoneydew and all of your staff♥️
Choosing to work on yourself is scary decision and such a rewarding one! Thanks for giving my cheesy metaphor a listen. I really have had some deep thoughts while weeding my garden and can’t help but recognize how it is similar to plucking away the thoughts that don’t serve me from my mind so I can make room for the more positive ones🌱
When I’m not on Zoom coaching clients in different states/countries, I just love seeing clients in my studio. My Life Purpose statement includes the Danish word ‘hygge’ it’s a feeling that can be difficult to explain. Here’s an example of how passionate I am to bring hygge to every encounter I have with others whether in person or online🕯️🧘🏼♀️🧡
You might be asking, Annie, is that really worth smiling about?
Becomming aware that your emotions are trying to tell you something and then being able to pause and receive that message means you are making a small adjustment in your behavior. That's worth smiling about!
#personaldevelopmentcoach#entrepreneurshiplifestyle#livethelifeyoulove#realestatecoaching#hyggelife#lifecoachingtips#wordsofwisdomwednesday
Here's that choice/control conundrum again!
It takes practice to change our behaviors towards what is best for us. And there are lots of feelings along the way.
Feel them. That's right. Sit in them, soak them in. Even when it's uncomfortable - Especially when it's uncomfortable. That's when you are listening to what your body has to say and more intentional choices start to happen.
#personaldevelopmentcoach#entrepreneurshiplifestyle#livethelifeyoulove#realestatecoaching#hyggelife#lifecoachingtips#wordsofwisdomwednesday
Yep, I wrote this to myself. Wow, this is a tough one to live up to.
Some discoveries we make in coaching feel really powerful in the moment and you know they are the truth.
Once we leave that session, we can feel a bit less determined.
Putting our thoughts into practice to change our actions isn't always easy. These are the ones to write down, like many times and post around your house in multiple places.
Invoking change takes repetition. I've got this! You've got this!
#personaldevelopmentcoach#entrepreneurshiplifestyle#livethelifeyoulove#realestatecoaching#hyggelife#lifecoachingtips#wordsofwisdomwednesday
Little stressors in our life can build upon each other and before we know it, were spending more time in a heightened state of stress. Identifying small rituals like sitting quietly in the morning for even five minutes can add calm into our routines. Gradual changes towards a calmer wav of being can create a lasting impact towards a more balanced life.

There are plenty of times that feel like we don't have control over what is happening in our lives.
My response to a given situation IS MY CHOICE and in making my choice I am taking back control.
These Words of Wisdom were a huge Ah-Ha for me. As I began paying attention to the choices I was making, the positive feelings I experience created a new pattern in my behavior. I feel more aligned with living in line with my purpose.
#personaldevelopmentcoach#entrepreneurshiplifestyle#livethelifeyoulove#realestatecoaching#hyggelife#lifecoachingtips#wordsofwisdomwednesday
Until recently it was believed that our brains reached a point at which new neural pathways were no longer created.
Scientists have debunked that theory.
Neuroplasticity is the hot new buzzword.
Whether you have heard of it from the popularity of psilocybin & ketamine therapies or from looking into life or business coaching, it's everywhere. If you're interested in changing how you show up in the world, you have options on how to achieve this.
The secret to whichever method you choose is that you MUST integrate your new learning through repetition of that behavioral change. With awareness and a little practice, before you know it, the attention you give to your new belief will change who you are and how you show up. You are amazing!
#personaldevelopmentcoach#entrepreneurshiplifestyle#livethelifeyoulove#realestatecoaching#hyggelife#lifecoachingtips#integration#sciencesaturday#coachingscience
Who's to say what is good or bad?
Well, we often do. When something "happens to us" we run that experience through our emotional filter of the moment. If we can pause and take some space, objectivity can work it's magic and just maybe we can see the learning in the experience.
#personaldevelopmentcoach#entrepreneurshiplifestyle#livethelifeyoulove#realestatecoaching#hyggelife#lifecoachingtips#wordsofwisdomwednesday
When the lightbulb goes off in a session and a client has that Ah-Ha moment, I have them record their WOWs to reflect upon at a later date. These Words of Wisdom are the client's own experiences put into their words, as they apply to their personal situation.
I am sharing one of my personal WOWs with you as a way to express that while we are all individuals, we aren't always alone in our thoughts and feelings.
The act of arriving at the Ah-Ha for ourselves can help us realize this and make what feels like a mountain suddenly easier to overcome.
