1:1 Artist Coaching

Confidential, supportive, and enriching conversations that cultivate and elevate your personal, professional, and artistic development.

This space is for artists and creatives who are asking questions — not only about their work, but about their identity, their process, their direction, and the kind of life they want their creativity to live inside.


These are creative conversations, shaped by what’s present for you right now. A supportive and stimulating space for you to

 
  • Explore the internal narratives shaping your creative choices — especially fear, doubt, or people-pleasing.

  • Reflect on the tension between what’s familiar and what’s calling you forward.

  • Develop and deepen self-awareness.

  • Recognise your existing strengths and identify challenges.

  • Identify your direction, where you are, and where you want to go.

  • Explore feelings around being seen, shifting direction, or releasing work that’s different.

  • Gain an understanding of your own impact, the impact of others and your environment.

  • Overcome obstacles or unblock blockages.

  • Gain clarity, grounding, energy, and momentum.

  • Make clear, conscious, and informed decisions that initiate positive change.

  • Identify, work towards, and realise your goals.

  • Receive unwavering, present, and dedicated support.


Through deep listening, reflective questioning, intuitive prompts, and creative practice, we’ll begin to surface what’s true — and find achievable, sustainable ways to support your next creative chapter.



This is a personal process, in which I sensitively tune in and respond to your unique needs. I meet you where you are, dedicated to nurturing your development, fostering growth, and facilitating transformation every step of the way.

As your coach, I create a space where you feel supported and encouraged to reflect, discover, take action, and make informed decisions to initiate positive change in your personal, professional, and artistic life.

It is my intention that, as personal development and self-awareness grow over time, you become empowered to make your own conscious and constructive choices, leading to a more meaningful and enriching life ~ a life you create, a life you choose.


Anna-Lise helped me so much with her coaching! I went through an artistic transformation, because of all the clarity that came out of the sessions, and this transformation continued also long after the coaching was over. Anna-Lise is very kind and welcoming, creating a space to make you feel comfortable so you can open up and be true to yourself. She knows to ask the right questions and gives space for answers, while listening intently.

If you are looking for a safe, stimulating environment where you feel supported in identifying challenges, working towards your goals, and creating an enriching life that inspires and excites you — this is your invitation to work with me.


The sessions brought me a lot of clarity. They helped me navigate my way around the thoughts in my head and gave me the tools to build a structure for them. I feel more aware of my needs and goals no matter how small. I can identify them more easily and understand why they are important to me. I am very happy with the work we did together, and I am very grateful for the support and patience that I received.

Coaching structure

 

The intention for the coaching process is to focus on your personal progression and development. Through regular meetings, we are able to set and work towards your personal, professional, and artistic goals.

• A personal coaching programme is designed specifically for you and your current needs. It means we can meet regularly over a period of time, and allows for continuous development to take place. These sessions can be booked in blocks of 4 or 8 and built according to your needs.

Individual sessions open up the opportunity to investigate and delve deeply into a topic of your choice and can be booked as a “one-off” or repeatedly, as this flexibility may work better for you.

~ We will talk more about these options in our discovery session.


Timing, frequency, location

 

The timing, frequency, and location of our sessions will be determined and agreed upon by us in advance. Sessions can take place either in-person or online.

In-person sessions can take place in my coaching room or studio in Oslo, Norway, or alternatively in a suitable meeting place that has been agreed between us.

Online sessions take place via Zoom, and open up the opportunity for long-distance coaching, location shifting, or receiving coaching from the comfort of your own home.


Does this resonate?

 

If you're curious about how coaching could support you and your journey, you are warmly welcome to join me for a complimentary discovery session and have a confidential, non-binding, and explorative conversation.

This discovery session is intended for us to get to know each other, to find out about your current wishes for development and focus, and for you to get to know the coaching process and ask me any questions you may have.

If you’d then like to move forward with coaching, we can discuss the possibilities and what could work well for you.


A note on trust

Many artists come to this work when they’re at a creative crossroads — one they might not even be able to name yet.

You don’t need to have it all figured out.
You just need to be ready to show up with what’s true for you right now.


I have definitely grown a lot, and continue to grow. I genuinely feel this has been much more of an enjoyable road thanks to the great support I can count on from Anna-Lise. She is a bright, caring, clear-headed, supportive and inspiring soul. Thank you for everything.
