Welcome to Design and Thrive!

Welcome to a space designed just for you—whether you’re dreaming of starting a business, building your brand, or growing your design skills.

Are you ready to transform your business journey with confidence and creativity?
I’m Zoe, a website designer, a social media marketer and a Canva Mentor.

With over two decades of KS2 teaching experience and Computer Curriculum leadership. 

Through my work, I discovered many people need a blend of guidance, confidence, and practical skills to bring their visions to life, so I’m here to help.

The Design and Thrive Hub membership:

Boost your confidence and skills with using Canva and learn to effectively streamline your brand across social media platforms together with your online presence. This membership offers monthly templates, tutorials, mini-courses, and online meetups—a fantastic way to connect with others, discuss Canva tips, and expand your network while enhancing your social media content strategy. 

Together, we aim to make your social media more cohesive, engaging, and effective, all while growing your Canva knowledge.

The Teacher’s Exit Plan Creation Course: 

Through transitioning out of teaching, I developed The Exit Plan Creation course—something I would’ve loved when I left the profession, unsure of what to do next and searching for direction. 

The main goal of this course is idea generation, empowering you to find your next steps with clarity and purpose. By combining your skills, knowledge, passions, and life experiences, you can create a new pathway after leaving the classroom, working for yourself, and building a future on your terms! Work from home / start a business.

Join us!

Whether you’re here to design eye-catching posts or explore a new direction after leaving the classroom, I’m here, ready to support you. 

Together, let’s make your goals a reality.
