It’s Time to Choose Yourself.

Annalyn Cruz is a Sovereignty Coach who helps women in their Second Act choose themselves so that they can show up in relationships fierce, feral, and free.

My 12-week 1:1 coaching and mentoring program Spotlight is for women in their Second Act to transform self-doubt and prioritizing others to choosing themselves so that they can become more fierce, feral, and free.

You’ve spent your first act in your earlier years giving yourself away to everyone else.

Nurturing and building others up, giving it your all within your career, saying yes to decisions that may have been not have been aligned, and seemingly holding it all together. 

You worked backstage to ensure the whole production of everyone else’s lives ran smoothly. 

You followed the stage directions that told you what a “great, successful woman” should be: dependable, loving, selfless. Others’ needs and desires came first, and yours became hidden behind the curtain. 

You did it well. Maybe a little too well. 

Somewhere along the way, you knew deep inside that something didn’t feel right.

Now something inside you whispers (or at this point, could be shouting at you)...

You’ve done everything right…and yet, your life doesn’t feel like it’s truly yours.

Somewhere along the way, you started abandoning yourself in your relationships, second-guessing your needs, and losing touch with what you actually desire.

Now you’re left wondering how to find your way back home to yourself.

You may be single, post-divorce, an empty-nester, or simply feeling that tug that says, I want to feel more free. I am ready to choose myself for once.

You may be curious and wondering how you can:

  • Protect your peace, discover new ways of being, and doing life differently. 

  • Calm your nervous system and center your healing.

  • Discover what truly lights you up and gives you energy back to yourself.

  • Learn how to date yourself and find the love you’ve always searched for through others. 

  • Build stronger boundaries in a variety of relationships.

  • Make empowered, IDGAF decisions centered in your inner knowing & intuition. 

Does this resonate?

This is the call to choose yourself.

To stop waiting for validation to live life differently now.

And let the life YOU truly crave begin in this beautiful and expansive second act…and what if you can do that by being more fierce, feral, and free in relationship to yourself and others?

Through my 12-week 1:1 coaching program, we unpack the pain of what it’s been like to live life based on others’ expectations, what old beliefs and actions are hurting you now, recognize what desires you’ve been pushing away and get clear on what you really want now.

It’s not too late to choose your own sovereignty in relationship to others…and most importantly, to yourself.

You Know You’re Ready for a Transformation.

Here’s what it looks and feels like when you choose to now be in the Spotlight.

Testimonials

  • Sage wisdom & presence

    I first worked with Annalyn when she co-facilitated a retreat a few years ago. I distinctly recall her vulnerability and bravery while sharing her own personal story with our group during the introductory circle. This inspired the women who shared after her to feel safe and go far deeper with their own stories.

    Later in the retreat, Annalyn led a guided meditation. Her energetic presence is grounding and soothing. To this very day I can take myself back to that moment and her guidance for finding and protecting my heart center. I use the practice that she taught me to call myself home when I have strayed too far from myself.

    I have the fortune of continuing to work with Annalyn. Her sage wisdom and presence inspires me to explore deeper within myself and continually embark on paths toward healing and self-discovery. Annalyn is someone with whom I feel comfortable being honest and vulnerable because she is genuine in how she shows up for others. Annalyn inspires a feeling of belonging, and I look forward to every opportunity that I have to work with her.

  • Radiant authenticity and intuitive guidance

    “I had the privilege of attending two of Annalyn’s transformative workshops at a Women’s Wellness Retreat. What really stays with me is her radiant authenticity and intuitive guidance. I felt inspired to explore what coming home to myself really looks and feels like within myself and in relationships with others. She offers this alongside you in a nurturing and sacred space as someone who is also on this journey. She created a collective group dynamic that gave us permission to then share within a group from our hearts. After three years, I continue to reflect on these discoveries especially during difficult times in my life.”

    — Lisa Ronan, CEO & Founder

I can truthfully say that Annalyn has had a huge impact on me and my career, and anyone who is coached by her is lucky to have such a warm and powerful coach on their side!”
