Aliveness & Identity Coach
Ordinary is Optional
I'm Zoe. I help people who've gone a bit flat find the switch again, without burning their whole life down to do it.
Who would you be tomorrow if you turned your voltage up?

You don't have to leave your life to feel alive in it.
A home for quiet rebels living on default. People who are fond of who they used to be and quietly wondering where she went. Coaching, writing and community, all under one roof. Come and find your Door Number Four.
which rebel are you?
// work with me
Stop spinning.
Start moving.
(gently. mostly.)
One-to-one coaching for people who know exactly what they don't want, and are a bit scared to say what they do. Non-judgemental, occasionally cheeky, always action. You'll leave with clarity, a plan, and someone holding you to it.
"She helped me gain clarity and see that the choices that got me where I am can also get me out."
vicky, client
// about
I've had more careers than hot dinners.
Footwear designer. English teacher. Retail survivor. Sales manager for exactly one year. Podcaster. Leather brand founder. Multipassionate misfit. Each one was me looking for work that was meaningful in a place I felt valued, and helping people see their own potential was the only thread that never snapped.
I'm a Brit who's lived in Italy for 15+ years, a mum of two, and someone who spent too long shrinking to fit. So I stopped. Now I help other quiet rebels do the same. No overnight miracles. Just intention, a bit of nerve, and the occasional "fuck it".
P.S. still doing the day job.
Honesty is very rock 'n' roll.
// speaking & podcast guesting
Put me on your mic.
I talk with my hands. You've been warned.
