My Story
Hi, I'm Zoë.
My life wasn't falling apart. I just started wondering whether alcohol still belonged in it. In May 2022 I decided to see how long I could go without drinking alcohol. As of today I am still sober because ditching the booze was the best thing I have ever done! It was the ‘missing piece’ of my life.
Why I created Vibrant Sobriety.
I am enjoying my alcohol-free life so much that I want to help others to achieve the same freedom as me. I want to show that life is colourful and I have gained better health, mental freedom, peace and joy by letting alcohol go.
Trained, qualified and grounded in real experience.
My own alcohol-free experience is part of what I bring to my coaching, but I understand lived experience alone isn't a qualification.
My work is underpinned by professional training in coaching and Positive Psychology with Andy Ramage’s Coach Business School, holistic wellness and alcohol-free life coaching with Janey Lee Grace and the Sober Club , alongside specialist training in ADHD coaching with Louise Ramage of Coach Business School. This means I can adapt my coaching for people with ADHD, recognising that things like impulsivity, reward-seeking, emotional regulation, routines and habit change can shape both our relationship with alcohol and the way we approach change.
I am a Chartered Fellow of the CIPD and a member of the Association for Coaching and the International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine. I bring more than twenty years of experience working with people, behaviour, wellbeing and change and over a decade working in elite sporting environments as a senior HR professional.
