Meet WE-Can Cohort 11 Member: Punnapha Kiatpanya (Wahn)

An animal lover (and proud mom to a cat and a dog 🐶🐱), our newest cohort member loves connecting with people - even if making the first move can feel a little awkward sometimes (relatable!). Growing up in Thailand, she learned to balance family expectations with her own dreams and the courage to speak up for herself.

Her journey has included big transitions, heartbreak, and reinvention - and through it all, she discovered her true calling in life coaching, after spending 15+ years in business development in the FMCG industry. Those experiences now shape the compassionate, grounded way she supports others through change and growth.

About Her Coaching Practice:
Now a solopreneur for about a year, she’s focused on building her presence on social media and creating coaching programs for entrepreneurs and women in leadership. Her mission is to help clients find deeper fulfillment in life so they can shine brighter in their businesses.

Blending traditional coaching with embodiment techniques, she guides people to tap into their inner wisdom and create meaningful, lasting results - not just quick wins, but real transformation.

Welcome to WE-Can Cohort 11 - we’re excited to have your heart, honesty, and growth journey in the community!
