Who Is Sophie Biggerstaff? - itssophiebiggerstaff.com

Hiii I’m Sophie!

how i became a business coach?

From a young age, I’ve been the friend you come to for brutally honest advice, the organizer, the one who connects people together.

To my family, I’m the daughter who’s always out the country, living life outside of society’s expectations. I live life my way and never want to look back with regrets.

To my ex-colleagues, I was the one speaking up in meetings, suggesting new ideas nobody else would dare think of. By nature, I’m a leader, a risk taker, and a highly intuitive, emotionally intelligent person.

And to the 150+ clients I’ve worked with? I’m the online business coach who FINALLY makes them feel seen. I underpromise and overdeliver. I intuitively know what you need and give you the strategy to make it happen.

Many clients come to me after a bad coaching experience – disheartened, out of pocket, and ready for change. I’m often told I finally provide clients the support and results they’ve been looking for.

I Learned how to build an online business Through Life, Not University

I left school at 16, instead, I went straight into work; jumped on opportunities as they came, and built real-world life and work experience, all of which has helped me in building my online business.

Alongside that, I’ve traveled to 45+ countries, lived in 6, listened to hundreds of podcasts, read more self-help books than I can count, and tried many healing, wellness, and self-development modalities. Most people describe me as wise beyond my years.

Since 2021, I’ve been living nomadically thanks to my online business. Currently based in Thailand. I made my business work for the life I wanted to live, so I’m very well qualified to help other entrepreneurs build online businesses designed around their desired lifestyle too.

My Story…

2011-2020

i HAD THE DREAM JOB ON PAPER, BUT IT WASN'T MY DREAM!

Before business coaching, I spent 12 years in fashion working for the world’s biggest brands – Ralph Lauren, Diesel, Kate Spade and Burberry. I started as an intern and left managing a £380 million business, launched a European subsidiary, presented five-year plans to boards, lead strategies that impacted share prices, and organised global conferences.

It was the dream job on paper, but I was waking up every day with anxiety, having panic attacks at work, and tolerating toxic bosses, office politics, and an overpriced two-hour commute.

I didn’t fit the typical corporate mould and I struggled daily with that, until I decided enough was enough.

My Career…

2020

I QUIT MY 9-5

To travel, then the pandemic hit. Flights got cancelled, we went into lockdown – I was jobless in London with a mortgage to pay. So, I started an online business. That business began as freelance gigs – offering my skills to e-commerce brands, it quickly transitioned into mentoring and by the end of year 1 I’d fallen down an entrepreneurial rabbit hole, building online courses, memberships, group programmes, digital products, agency, affiliate marketing, drop shopping, consulting – you name an online business model, I’ve probably tried it.

2021-2022

MAKING MONEY ONLINE

I was making consistent £5-£7k months, meaning I’d built enough financial freedom to live out my dream of becoming a digital nomad – so I booked a one-way flight to Bali.

Running my online business from Bali was hard. Despite physically being in paradise, my mind was struggling, and I suffered the biggest burnout of my life, which left me more or less bed-bound for 12 weeks, leading me to take 6 months “off” my business because I physically couldn’t function at the pace I had been pushing at.

2023-2025

I REBUILT EVERYTHING

I realised I was trying to work at London pace on island time. I’d been sucked in by hustle-culture. BUT if I wanted this lifestyle to work for me, and my health to get back to normal – something was going to have to change. I had a painful realisation that I hadn’t built myself a business – I’d built myself a job.

So I rebuilt myself and my business. I systemized, I automated, I kept pivoting. I stopped doing what the “gurus” told me and focused on what worked for me. I redesigned my business so my mental health, personal growth, lifestyle, and freedom came first.

Now I’m committed to sharing everything I learned throughout this process to support high achieving dreamers like me build a business that works for them, not a job they work for

Post Burnout…

Working For Me.

is a movement!

I’ve done the work, I’ve tried and tested so many different methods, and I’ve spent time learning from the best to come to the conclusion that there is no one strategy that works for every person – you have to build a business and life that works for you, based on your version of success!

That’s why I never put clients in a box, or give cookie-cutter strategy. Ultimately your business needs to be designed to work FOR YOU. Otherwise, what’s the point?

My work is all about getting to the core of what you want, how you work best and building a strategy that helps you manifest your personal life/business goals in to reality. From a really grounded place. This is the basis of everything I teach in my 1:1’s and online courses.

WHY WORK WITH ME?

I’ve supported 100+ founders, helped launch 18 start-ups, scaled a client’s revenue from £0 to £178k in 9 months and increased anothers sales +75%.

I’ve designed and hosted sold out events, built an IRL community of 600+ people, I’ve spoken on stages to 100s. Founded Time Is Not A Healer, and was awarded CEO Monthly Mental Health Founder Of The Year 2025.

I understand online business at a 360 strategic level because I’ve built it all myself – service offers, mentoring, digital products, memberships, courses, consulting – I’ve done it without a team, without funding, without an agency behind me.

I’ll never promise you “£100k months”, as that’s on you to implement the strategy I give you. BUT if you want someone who sees you, gives honest feedback, holds you accountable, and helps you maintain a healthy balance while you do it – that’s me.

TESTIMONIALS

Don’t Just Take My Word For It…

Sophie helped me more in my online business in a 2-hr session than my previous coach did in a month! She is so knowledgeable in many areas, and after implementing the strategy we built together, I secured 2 new clients within 2 months.

You could spend years going back and forth on things and still be unsure, but having Sophie in your business will save you so much time and get you moving forward instead of staying stuck. She provides a lot of clarity and insights into things that you never even considered!

MORE ABOUT ME

I’m a Pisces sun, Scorpio moon and Sagittarius rising. A 4/6 Manifesting Generator. I’m a reiki practitioner, a tarot reader, and I’m currently training to be a yoga and meditation teacher. If you’re into these modalities, I can use some of them with you in my online business coaching, and if you’re not, I promise I won’t even mention it!

As much as I’m a highly spiritual person, I’m also very logical and grounded which I believe makes me a well rounded coach. I can see the emotional blocks AND the strategy. We’re not just talking intuition – we’re talking alignment, nervous system, leadership, systems, marketing, structure and sales.

Clients are often shocked by just how much I know. It’s the best of both worlds – and it works.

PS. If we meet in person you will always find me with an Iced Oat Matcha in hand.

Can’t wait to work with you soon!
