ABOUT ANNE ROBIE
FROM HUSTLE TO WHOLENESS
HI, I’M ANNE!
I spent 25 years as an HR executive succeeding in a system that rewards fitting in. I played the game and played it well — climbing ranks, collecting titles, and mastering the “right” way to lead. Yet, beneath the surface, a relentless question kept tugging at me:
What if we’ve got leadership all wrong?
When I could no longer ignore the quiet pull toward something deeper, I stepped onto my own path of self-discovery. What followed wasn’t just a career pivot; it was a reckoning.
I explored what it truly means to lead, and what we lose when we hide who we are beneath an armor. Here’s what might surprise you:
Once I dropped the armor, I didn’t lose influence. My presence, impact, and success grew more than I could’ve imagined.
Today, I’m throwing out the rulebook.
As the founder of Darshan Leadership and a sought-after speaker, I partner with leaders and organizations ready to ditch performative leadership to build cultures where people show up: fully human, deeply committed, and on fire for what they do.
If you’re done pushing from pressure and ready to operate from purpose — this is where everything shifts.
A MESSAGE FROM ANNE
“I know what it’s like to hit the goals, check every box, and still feel like something’s missing.”
“There’s a deeper way to lead — one rooted in presence, purpose, and truth, not just performance. I’m learning to lead from that place every day, and I’m here to help you do the same.”
I BELIEVE WE DON’T HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN:
Being real & getting results.
Our higher calling & the bottom line.
Work we love & work that matters.
The only question is when you’ll drop the armor.
The future of leadership isn’t polished — it’s unarmored.
