I’ve searched for meaning across continents, careers, and mountains, seeking what I thought would make me happy: success, love, adventure, purpose.
What I found, and continue to discover, is that fulfillment and our way to it, isn’t something we solve for; it’s something we feel & embody.
Those who know me say I’m a Nomad, a Philosopher, a Guide. Over two decades of search have led me to this space, a space where I embrace and embody my mind, body & soul.
The Nomad
From Nairobi to New York to London and up many mountains, I’ve lived what I now teach: that true direction comes from within, not from a logical map.
The Guide
I walk beside those ready to climb their own mountain, as a companion who’s seen the terrain. I help you reconnect with your intuition, your truth, and your why.
The Philosopher
I’m passionately reflective and curious. I draw from global theology, science, and twenty years of my own therapy, distilling timeless wisdom into practical truth.
I don’t offer performance hacks or quick fixes. What I offer is presence, space, and an opportunity for you to experience the real you.
So, who am I?
Well, as a start, my friends call me Zam.
The Foundational Shift
When my parents divorced, the foundation of my world quietly cracked. Everything I thought was solid felt uncertain.
I grew up quickly after that, learning to hold it all together, to make sense of things far bigger than me. But in truth, it was the start of me realizing who I’m truly meant to be.
Swimming became a sanctuary, a place I could breathe, find drive, and be. Nature became my teacher, uncovering parts of me I didn’t know I needed.
These early years taught me the foundations of wellbeing before I knew the word. Finding calm in uncertainty, presence in pressure, and strength in being nothing but me.
The Compass Within
As life unfolded, and I experienced what it meant to live and grow into independence, I often felt an inner pull, a whisper urging me to follow a different path.
It led me to Kenya, where I discovered the power of service; to New York, where I learn to swim with sharks; and to London, where I began to listen to my heart more than my plans.
I didn’t always know why I made the choices I did, only that something deeper was guiding me.
Every leap of faith became another step in learning to trust my inner compass.
Becoming All of Me
Over the years, that quiet pull led me inward. Over two decades of therapy, meditation, journalling, breathwork, exercise, cold water, and more. I began to understand that growth isn’t about adding more; it’s about remembering and unlocking what’s already within.
Nature, faith, and love have become some of my greatest teachers. Buddhism, Sufism, Islam, Rumi, so many great masters, reminding me that healing is not about fixing, it is the sacred art of listening. The more I listened, the more I began to hear that which lives beyond language.
Being & The Guide
Everything I’ve lived has become part of how I now serve & thrive. I’ve been called a soul coach; for those not called to the word soul, I like to say presence.
Through Presence-Based Coaching, 360 Leadership Circle Profile, and Wondrinn experiences, I guide groups and professionals to reconnect with the compass within, the self-generating intelligence of mind, body, and heart.
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about slowing down, listening deeply, and finding direction from within. Because when we live with presence, the path in front of us reveals itself.
My work is a reflection of all that I’ve experienced: a synthesis of psychology, spirituality, and embodied wisdom designed to help you embody what it truly means for you to be alive.
The compass is a metaphor that weaves through it all, a reminder that even when the map fades, there’s always something within you that knows the way. Welcome. We’re all just here, walking eachother home.
