Anna is a certified coach and NLP practitioner. She’s an accredited HR professional and founder of The Happy Mum Project. Following a successful career that led Anna to head up the Learning & Development function at a large, global organisation, she set up her own coaching practice, which is committed to helping mothers achieve career-family-balance. She understands the challenges working mothers face having worked in a corporate environment for many years while having her 2 kids.   Her mission: to empower women to become strong and confident leaders while finding fulfilment in motherhood and family life.   Anna went on her own personal growth and self-discovery journey after she had her first child. She felt motherhood was overwhelming, she felt a loss of identity and lack in confidence, which affected her in her new role as a mum as well as her career. She always had the desire to pursue a career and took pride in her achievements. She got confronted with the challenges of modern motherhood and had to face a lot of insecurities, anxiety and imposter syndrome. Through coaching and mindset work she found herself again and began to realise that all the experience she had gathered in her work-life as an HR professional and a manager gave her a lot of the tools she needed to drive not just her own career forward, but also guide and support others to achieve their personal and professional goals. It was then that she started to build the foundations of what has become The Happy Mum Project.   Anna’s work and coaching practice revolves around deep mindset work and inner transformation that addresses key elements, which are essential to being successful at work and having a fulfilled family life. She believes that by gaining more understanding and creating self-awareness, we become enabled to set meaningful goals for ourselves and implement healthy habits, thoughts and behaviours that will empower us to achieve a true state of happiness, balance and fulfilment.

Kelly Gunn is a cancer survivor, certified personal trainer, published writer, and founder of Feinix Haus — described as Peloton meets Soho House for post-cancer women. When Kelly's treatment ended, the world handed her a finish line and expected her to resume. She didn't. A year after her double mastectomy she competed in two bodybuilding competitions. She rebuilt her body, started another company, and got published in three national magazines. She is taking Europe solo this year. She is leading a retreat in Belize in December 2026. Not despite cancer. Because of who she became after it. Feinix Haus is the lifestyle wellness and fitness membership community Kelly built because it didn't exist. A tiered ecosystem — The Clubhaus, The Studio, The Inner Circle, and The Private Study — designed to meet post-cancer women exactly where they are and walk alongside them as they build a life that actually fits. There are 4 million breast cancer survivors in the United States. When treatment ends, most of them become invisible to the wellness and fitness industries. Feinix Haus sees them. Not as survivors in recovery. As women in their After — living fully, moving intentionally, and building the lives they almost didn't get to live. Kelly's work has been featured in Wildfire Magazine, C-Heads Magazine, and on National Cancer Survivors Day. She appears on the Moments That Changed You podcast and is a frequent voice on post-cancer identity, body reclamation, and the lifestyle of the After.
