Ann Marie Ramsey Portrait

Welcome!
My name is
Ann-Marie Ramsey.

I am a breast cancer warrior.

In 2018, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. Through chemo, surgery, radiation, and immunotherapy, I witnessed firsthand the major gaps in the medical system that often leave breast cancer warriors stripped of themselves and exhausted–physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

Today, I fulfill my heart’s purpose by coaching other breast cancer warriors, hoping that my experience can fill that gap for them.

How is this diagnosis affecting you?

If you are feeling overwhelmed, lost, challenged, struggling, or in need of deeper support in any area of your life, then let’s talk.

  • I am a Certified Professional Coach with an Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner designation through iPEC (Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching), an international leader in coach development programs. iPEC is accredited by the ICF (International Coaching Federation).

    I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Presbyterian College in South Carolina and have always had an interest in positive psychology and the ability of the human spirit to illuminate, rise up, and push forward in the hardest challenges life can throw at us.

    I currently work in Human Resources at a healthcare hospital system located in Central Oregon.

  • In 2020-2022 while still working in Human Resources, I served on the Board of Riding Beyond, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization focusing on helping women cope with the trauma of going through breast cancer treatment through equine-assisted healing techniques.

You move through your diagnosis and treatment with greater perspective and a deeper understanding of yourself that allows you to live the life YOU want to live!

  • I was completely shaken, scared and overwhelmed facing my breast cancer diagnosis and preparing for my approaching treatment. When I reached out to Ann-Marie, it was like finding a bright star in the darkness. Even though I had so much support and help from family members and friends, I found that it was difficult to discuss my diagnosis and treatment with someone who never had cancer. One thing that makes Ann-Marie’s services so valuable is that she is a cancer survivor herself.

  • Throughout our coaching sessions, Ann-Marie exhibited a deep understanding of my circumstance and created a safe and non-judgmental space where I felt comfortable sharing my thoughts and challenges. Working with her has been a game changer, and I’m grateful for the positive impact she’s had on my life. Thank you, Ann-Marie!

  • Ann-Marie Ramsey has proved to be caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable in every interaction I have had with her. She knows how to get to the heart of the matter in a way that is concise, helpful, and supportive. She has gone out of her way to help me in many ways, and I am very grateful to her for being there for me.

    Karen Barrows, Breast Cancer Warrior

  • I was stuck in a cycle of deficit thinking, believing that sharing my narrative with one more person wasn’t going to help. Ann-Marie provided an attuned presence, a highly perceptive, insightful inquiry that revealed my strength, resourcefulness, and creativity. She guided me in the creation of a strategic action plan and from here I moved forward with clarity and confidence. This was truly a transformational experience which I highly recommend.

    G. Fehr, Southern Oregon

  • In addition to the knowledge, tools, and guidance Ann-Marie provided for me to better understand my diagnosis and how to navigate my upcoming treatment protocol, her coaching approach carried empathy and relatability in a way that helped me with the emotional support I needed. I was moved by her warmth, connection, compassion, and authenticity. Ann-Marie’s coaching helped shift my fear and despair to feeling hopeful, confident, resilient and empowered in my path towards wellness and recovery.
