Meet Annie

I’m Annie Stephanos, founder of Highroads Coaching. After 26 years in public education as a teacher and instructional coach, I experienced firsthand the cost of high performance in high-pressure environments.  Like many women, I succeeded externally while slowly abandoning myself—until burnout made that impossible to ignore.  Now, I help high-achieving women create sustainable success without sacrificing themselves in the process.

My Approach is:

Structured, not surface-level.

Practical, not just inspirational.

Designed for sustainable success—not constant recovery.

She brings a rare combination of deep expertise, clarity, and genuine care to her training. Annie creates an engaging, supportive environment while delivering practical, actionable insights you can immediately apply. Her ability to explain complex concepts in clear ways makes her workshops both engaging and empowering.

Annie has a unique ability to meet people with compassion while still challenging them to grow. Her work is grounded in real-life experience and a genuine understanding of what it means to navigate burnout, rebuild balance, and create meaningful change.
