JOJO'S JOURNEY
Hey, I’m Jojo! Founder of Empowered to Thrive CIC, transformation and life coach, ADHD as f*ck, and someone who knows first hand what it feels like to be knocked down by life and wonder if you’ll ever feel whole again.
After navigating my own personal journey through mental illness, chronic illness, toxic relationships, domestic violence, and of course the emotional rollercoaster of life’s challenges, I know what it feels like to lose yourself. But I also know what it feels like to find your way back, to rebuild, grow, and thrive.
​
My journey led me to co-found Live Great Adventures CIC in 2023, an amazing Mental Health & suicide prevention organisation, where for two incredible years we supported thousands of people through life-changing wellbeing workshops and adventure based events. From 450+ strong night hikes, support groups, community projects, awards, recognition, saved lives, the impact has been nothing short of amazing. So many people continue to share how these experiences helped them feel seen, heard, and empowered.
But it's inspiring and guiding women to transform their lives that really sets my soul on fire! I love to create dedicated spaces and safe, compassionate places to breathe, to reconnect, and to feel like themselves again.That’s where Empowered to Thrive CIC was born, an organisation focused purely on supporting women through the messy, overwhelming, and isolating parts of life. A mission that’s all about YOU.
I’ve faced my share of storms, abusive relationships, chronic health struggles, six months unable to walk after a freak condition, and even six months of being stalked, along with a whole rollercoaster of ups and downs that life has delivered for me. But each time life broke me apart, I rebuilt. Piece by piece. I found strength I didn’t know I had and resilience that became the foundation of who I am today. I’m here because I get it. I’ve lived it. I’ve doubted my worth, lost my way, and faced the dark. And I’ve also stood back up, over and over again. My mission now is to walk beside you as you do the same.
At Empowered to Thrive, we offer creative workshops, walk-and-talks in nature, reflective retreats, and one-to-one coaching, all designed to meet you where you are. No masks. No judgment. Just real, raw support from someone who’s been there.
What lights me up? Watching women stand in their power and create a life that truly serves them. Not what society expects, not what others think, but a life that feels right in their soul.
So if you’re ready to move from surviving to thriving, I’m here for it, and I’m here for you. Let’s rediscover your power, together. 💖
