Unplugged Ambition is here to help you identify and use your gifts and talents to build the life you want, whilst being mindfully part of a community.

It is aimed as a guide, inspiration, signpost and community for anyone working in corporate roles and looking to unplug from the dopamine, adrenaline and headfuckery of that lifestyle. If you want to embrace a simpler, more meaningful and creative life, work sustainably and make an impact in areas that matter to you, Unplugged Ambition aims to support you across downsizing and financial planning, skill development, building confidence and resilience right up to offering funded opportunities to help you get going.

Whether change is something you are planning now, or at some unknown point in the future, and whether you're planning a big and bold lifestyle change or simply wanting to read, create or connect with nature and be in good company, the community at Unplugged Ambition is there to give inspiration, challenge and act as a sounding board.
