This is my story
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

Hey, I’m Ruthie
Hi! I’m Ruthie , a professional life coach, content creator, and digital media expert.
I’m dedicated to helping you become the person that you most desire to be.
For as long as I can remember I’ve been really passionate about understanding life, my purpose and how we can squeeze the most out of life. I’m simply very interested in trying to answer the pivotal question of how can we live better? This is also the premise of Ruthie Zerai and the type of content that you can look forward to here.
As a child I was always obsessed with acquiring more knowledge, which as a teen resulted in reading countless of self-help books and building a library in my apartment. As I started to emerge into adulthood I have comfortably landed in that the pursuit of our potential is not about changing ourselves but rather in becoming more of who are, to make self-acceptance the foundation.
I believe that self-acceptance creates balance, harmony and the type of foundation that we need to become self-defined and self-directed in life.
Not only to live better, but also to confidently be able to live out our potential and realise our dreams.
This is definitely true for my own life; my life became exponentially better the moment I started to cut out all the external noise and started to define what’s right and necessary for me to be able to thrive in life and feel content.
I believe that any change that we want to see in the world starts with journey from within. When we take a deep dive within, we understand ourselves and personalise our mission, the greater the chance that we have at succeeding with living a meaningful, purposeful and impactful life. Through life experience, I’ve learnt that to be successful at this game of life we need to take a stab at truly making it ours, to become the driver and not the passenger, to define the blueprint of our lives and then to convert that into effectiveness through putting in the necessary work.
Therefore my writing and work that I do as a Self-leadership coach is as much about the WHY as it is about the HOW.
To really see fruits of our labour we need to care as much about the goals as we do about the daily effort that we put in towards honouring those goals. Put simply we need to be prepared to put in the work.
In my own life, I'm constantly experimenting with learning, creating better habits, increasing mindfulness, pushing my body through physical exercise, trying out new foods to improve my health and vitality, so in many ways, the work that I share here is a vibrant mix of motivational storytelling, academic research and tried and tested hard-earned wisdom.
My wish for my life is to live with compassion and love, while having fun and maybe leaving this planet a little better through my contribution. I hope that my work here will inspire and motivate in the direction of expansion and positivity. I certainly do not have all the answers but I’m thrilled to be able to share what I’ve learned so far here with you, sign up to my email list below to get regular updates from me. Thank you for visiting my corner of the internet!
In gratitude, always.
