About

I Am

Coach Lori Anne

SUCCESS COACH • STRATEGIST • SPEAKER • AUTHOR

I believe your yesterday can inform you—but it doesn’t get to decide your tomorrow.

For more than three decades, I’ve worked as a business and life coach at the intersection of business, personal development and human potential—helping people get clear about what they truly want, move beyond what’s holding them back, and take intentional action toward what comes next.

Today, as America’s #1 Take Action Success Coach & Strategist, I bring together real-world business experience, professional training, personal transformation and a whole lot of life experience to help people stop waiting for “someday” and begin creating what’s possible now.

I’m a coach, strategist, speaker, #1 International Best-Selling Author and host of Healthy Lifestyle with Lori Anne—but underneath all those titles, I’m someone who believes deeply in people, possibility and the power of taking that first step.

Because someday deserves a date.

The Journey

I DIDN’T BUILD THIS WORK FROM A TEXTBOOK.

I BUILT IT FROM LIFE

There have been moments in my life when the plan changed completely—sometimes by choice, sometimes because life made the choice for me.

I’ve built a successful career, started over, faced fear, experienced loss, made mistakes, changed direction, rebuilt, rebuilt again and discovered that sometimes the life waiting on the other side of uncertainty is bigger than the one we were afraid to leave.

Along the way, I learned something that now sits at the heart of everything I teach:

Life may change your plans. It does not get to cancel your possibilities.

Eventually, I made one of the biggest leaps of my own life—leaving a six-figure career and stepping into entrepreneurship. I didn’t have every answer. I certainly didn’t have every step mapped out. What I had was the willingness to take the next one.

That journey became more than my story. It became part of my work.

Today, I help people navigate their own “what now?” moments—to get clear, trust themselves again, create a strategy and move forward intentionally.

I don’t make your decisions for you. I make suggestions. You make decisions. And then we walk the journey together.

Because transformation rarely happens in one giant leap.

It begins when someday finally gets a date and you take the first step.

LIFE EXPERIENCE SHAPED ME

EDUCATION & MENTORSHIP EQUIPPED ME

I’ve never stopped learning. Over the years, I’ve intentionally studied, trained, earned certifications and credentials, collaborated and worked alongside extraordinary experts and thought leaders—bringing the best of what I’ve learned together with decades of real-world experience.

And I’m still learning. Always.

SHAPED BY EXTRAORDINARY MINDS

A lifetime of learning. A methodology all my own

35+ YEARS EXPERIENCE | $300K+ INVESTED IN EDUCATION & TRAINING | 1 OF 17 SENIOR CERTIFIED CANFIELD TRAINERS \ A LIFETIME OF LEARNING

I believe great business and life coaches remain great students.

Over more than 35 years in business, marketing, coaching and personal development, I’ve invested countless hours—and more than $300,000—in education, training, certification and continued growth.

I’ve intentionally learned from some of the most recognized voices in success, leadership, mindset, business and human potential. Some have personally trained or certified me; others have influenced my work through their programs, teachings, books and methodologies.

I didn’t do it to become a copy of anyone else.

I did it to learn broadly, experience deeply, question thoughtfully—and ultimately develop methodologies and frameworks that are distinctly my own.

THE LEARNING BECAME THE FOUNDATION

THE EXPERIENCE MADE IT MINE

What I’ve learned from extraordinary teachers matters. What matters even more is how I’ve tested it, lived it, adapted it and brought it together through decades of real-world experience.

Today, those lessons live inside my own frameworks, programs and approach to coaching—created to help people gain clarity, take intentional action and keep moving forward.

Because knowledge can change what you know.
Action changes what you become.

More Than One Lane

My work has never fit neatly into one box—and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Business, coaching, personal development, wellness, media and the stage have each played a role in shaping who I am and how I serve. Different chapters. Different experiences. One common thread:

Helping people see what’s possible—and take action toward it.

AND THEN LIFE HANDED ME A CROWN…

MS. SOUTH CAROLINA SENIOR AMERICA 2026

What began as a challenge to step outside my own comfort zone became another reminder to practice what I teach—to keep growing, keep stretching and keep saying yes to possibilities I might once have saved for “someday.”

Apparently, someday occasionally comes with a crown. 👑😉

COMMUNITY, SERVICE & CONNECTION

Because success means more when we create it together.

Community has always been an important part of my life and my work. I believe in showing up, serving, connecting people and contributing wherever I can—because some of the most meaningful opportunities begin with simply being willing to be part of something bigger than ourselves

BEAUTIFULLY, A WORK IN PROGRESS

The philosophy of Wabi Sabi

I have always been drawn to the philosophy of Wabi Sabi—the idea that there is beauty in imperfection, change and the unfinished parts of our lives.

Life has taught me that we don’t have to have everything figured out before we move forward. We don’t have to erase our mistakes, hide our cracks or wait until we feel perfectly ready.

We are all works in progress. I know I am.

Every chapter—the beautiful ones, the difficult ones, the ones I would never have chosen and the ones I wouldn’t trade—has shaped the woman I am today.

And I’m still becoming.

That’s what I want for the people I work with, too. Not perfection. Possibility. The willingness to see where you are, imagine where you could be and intentionally take the next step.

Your yesterday doesn’t get to cancel your tomorrow.

You don’t have to become someone else to begin.

You simply have to step into who you are meant to be.

Because someday deserves a date

Wabi Sabi

A Japanese design concept. It means beauty in that which is temporary or imperfect. Things that come off of an assembly line, for example, are perfect, but things made by hand, like the glaze on a Japanese ceramic bowl, are imperfect. It is their imperfections that give them their beauty. The same is true for people. It is the combination of all of our imperfections that make us vulnerable and beautiful.

We love the idea of wabi sabi as a metaphor for the work we do. Our work centers around this idea of life as a journey. That we are all working to become better versions of ourselves. The idea of a “work in progress” is also the strategy for our work.

You’ll see little things that are imperfect— We wanted our work to reflect the journey of constant improvement we are all on—as leaders, as organizations and as individuals. We believe that it is the imperfections that make it feel human, and beautiful.
