About me

Hi I’m Zaidha Roscoe and I am a Personal and Business Coach working with people who want to empower themselves get the most out of their one precious life.
I have always loved people; I believe each individual person is infinitely special and holds so much potential and I am passionate about helping people to discover and grow into a life that is uniquely right for them.
I believe as a coach is it important to offer professional, personalised, high quality coaching and I am an International Coaching Federation ACC Accredited Business and Personal Coaching trained with industry leaders Barefoot Coaching.

What that means in real terms is that I’m fully qualified, accredited and insured, I adhere to the highest international industry standards and ethics as well as working with my own coach and within a coaching supervision group.

Coaching can and should draw from many disciplines, so I feel it’s important to constantly build on my learning and expand on my own knowledge in order to be able to deliver the very best service possible to my clients. I have training and qualification in NLP, CBT, Positive Psychology, Coaching with Neurodiverse Clients, Group Coaching, Outdoor Coaching and am a certified Thomas Personal Profile Assessment practitioner.

And finally I am currently in my last year of study for a Post Graduate Certificate in Business and am a Personal Coaching with the University of Chester.

To tell you a little about myself pre coaching I spent the majority of my career (18 years!) developing and running my family’s independent fashion retail business. Both the business and I were born at around the same time and looking back now I can see how really we grew up and developed together until we were both old enough to run with each other. Remarkably I ended up there quite accidentally through a journey of grief and loss that’s a little too complex for a few short paragraphs. But despite that and perhaps also because of it, I am always grateful for both the opportunities and the immense learning and insight into both business and people my 18years there gave me. However as much as I Ioved the business I realised I loved it like it was a parent or sibling, it had always been a part of me, but I didn’t feel passionate about it and speaking metaphorically I certainly did not want to marry it! I needed to find my own great love and build a life and career that felt right for me, no matter how foolish starting all over again might look to somebody else!

I had suffered with health problems from childhood and in 2014 things really took a nosedive and my immune system finally crashed. For the first time I was forced to slow down long enough to really think about and evaluate what I wanted for my life and from my life. What did I feel passionate about? What made me come alive? Whilst I had only one goal in my mind – to get well, I suddenly had many hours to spend working out what it was I actually wanted to get well for. I had always been a forward thinking and forward moving person, a natural optimist and believer in better I had read every book and employed every tool I knew in my own self-development and if there were two things I knew I had plenty of, they were enthusiasm and encouragement. I knew deep down what I really wanted to do was to be able to work with and make a difference to the lives of other people, I knew I wanted to retrain as a coach. To summarise a long health journey into a few words it turned out I had been suffering from Lyme Disease for nearly 3 decades. It took 6 year of rebuilding and healing to finally get the all clear - 9 weeks to the day before Covid locked us down! But my mind was made up and knowing where I was now going my aim was to get the business to a safe place to be handed into the care of those taking it forward.
And the rest as they say is history! I have since trained and qualified as coach and have been fortunate enough to build a business and portfolio career I love!

As well as my own private work I am also incredibly proud work as part of the Wellbeing Team for an incredible charity called Mind Over Mountains (MoM). MoM is a charity offering professional mental health support bringing together walking in nature, mindfulness and time with experienced coaches and counsellors please do check us out here!

 When I’m not busy being a coach you will mostly find me climbing mountains, swimming in lakes and spending time with the people I love eating delicious food, cosying in front of a fire or, if it’s a Saturday, cheering and shouting from the stands of Blackpool F.C.!

I truly love what I do, through my own journey I have learnt that anything is possible, and I believe that anything is possible for you too.
