The Path Here

Six years, one thread.

  1. 2020

    The leap into full-time practice

    After years of side-of-desk coaching around a corporate career, Anita closed the tech chapter and moved the practice fully online in ten days — running 300+ free sessions for frontline healthcare and hospitality workers through the first lockdown year.

  2. 2021

    Credentials, consolidated

    Completed ICF-accredited coach training and a postgraduate diploma in counselling psychology (CBT, mindfulness-based therapy, trauma-informed care) — the pieces that let her hold body and mind in one room.

  3. 2022

    From studio to stage

    First paid keynote at a women-in-leadership summit in Kuala Lumpur, followed by talks at DBS, Standard Chartered, and NUS — translating private work into a public voice.

  4. 2023

    Singapore home base

    Established a Singapore studio and a small team; began serving founders, artists and athletes across Asia in person, and a wider roster virtually.

  5. 2024

    Reset & Ascend cohorts launched

    Codified the 1-on-1 method into two small-group programs — 'The Reset' (8 weeks, foundation) and 'The Ascend' (12 weeks, integration) — capped at twelve women per cohort.

  6. 2025

    Anita Mansingh Wellness Studio

    Formalised the studio: a Singapore home base and a small team, now serving clients across 14 countries through in-person, virtual and small-group programs.

  7. 2026

    Writing 'Still, Strong.'

    Began work on a first book with a Singapore literary agent — a plainspoken field guide to living calmly and strongly in a life that keeps moving. Expected 2027.

How she works

Four quiet principles.

No hustle scripts. No 30-day miracles. Anita's practice is slow on purpose — because the things worth changing rarely change in a hurry.

01

Body first, then mind

Sleep, breath, strength and food are the floor. Coaching sits on top of a nervous system that can actually hold change.

02

Small, honest steps

One habit a fortnight, measured and adjusted. Progress that survives a hard week, not just a hopeful one.

03

Private, never performative

What's said in a session stays there. No screenshots, no case studies, no client names on stage.

04

You do the work

Anita holds the frame; the client walks the mile. Every plan is co-authored — nothing prescribed from above.

A practice, in numbers.

Off the mat

When she's not coaching.

Anita lives in Singapore with her family. Mornings begin with a long walk along the East Coast, coffee that's always a little too strong, and a notebook she refuses to digitise. She reads two books at a time — one for the head, one for the heart — cooks Sindhi food on Sundays, and mentors a small circle of women founders pro bono through the year. She believes deeply that a good life is a quiet one, well tended.

Signature Work

Rooms she's worked in.

A short list, kept honest. Names appear only where the engagement is public — private client work stays private, always.

In Progress

From the notebook
to the bookshelf.

Every session for the last ten years began the same way — a plain black notebook, one page per client, one line of what she noticed. Twelve notebooks in, a pattern surfaced: the same four questions, the same five quiet reversals, the same handful of habits that held.

Still, Strong. is the field guide that pattern deserves — plainspoken, unhurried, and built for readers who don't need another 30-day plan. Represented by Jacaranda Literary in Singapore. Expected 2027.
