I am an undefinable.

And I've lived beyond conventional labels for as long as I can remember. 

Titles like Social Entrepreneur, Endurance Athlete and Community Builder have shaped me, but none have ever told the full story. I've worn many hats, followed many threads, and often struggled to find a space where the whole of me could belong.

So I started designing one.

Over the past few years I've:

• Competed semi-professionally in endurance sports by getting sponsored and representing GB.
• Built the undefinable community, a 40+ person non-profit for those in the Age of Discovery (22-35).
• Written and refined the 3rd draft of my book on undefinable life design based on 70+ early readers. 

Along the way, I've learnt that life design isn't about rejecting structure. It's about creating your own.

This is why I founded undefinable life design. As a way to help individuals who live beyond conventional labels to design a life for their uniqueness. And for organisations to enable them to do so.


✋🏼 For Individuals

If you've ever struggled to answer "So, what do you do?" my 9.3/10 rated workshops are for you.

"Designing a Life That Doesn't Fit in a Box" is a 2.5h public workshop I host once a month. In it you'll map your many interests, draft your Golden Thread and connect with others like you.

→ Check upcoming dates: https://luma.com/undefinablelifedesign


🏢 For Organisations

Early-career talent (22-30) are the most likely to leave unless they feel aligned, engaged and invested in. 

With 51% of employees actively looking for new roles and 89% of Gen Zs saying purpose is key to job satisfaction, young professionals are hungry for meaning and alignment. If they can't it inside your company, they'll look elsewhere.

That's where I come in. 

I run interactive team workshops and off-sites that:

• Help your people discover their uniqueness.
• Connect their role with their purpose.
• Design a meaningful plan for their next 5-10 years.

The result? Greater engagement, stronger retention, and emerging leaders who bring their whole selves to work.

🌱 The Movement

Beyond workshops, I'm also growing:

• The undefinable community - a non-profit London-based space home to 40+ members.
• The undefinable life design book - now in its 3rd draft.
• A newsletter read by 1,000+ subscribers each week.

If you’re an individual seeking clarity, or a leader seeking to engage your people, let’s connect.

Today was so much fun!

After helping organise last year's edition, it was great to go along to 2025's Portfolio Career Festival as a member of the community.

The team absolutely smashed it. They one upped last year with the incredible venue, speakers and topics.

I loved catching up so many faces both familiar and new. It's always such a lovely crowd.

Shout-out Fiona, Nicola and the whole The Portfolio Collective team. See you in 2026!

Helping undefinables design their life for uniqueness

In 12 days I'll have a permanent home 🥳

After living in 10 places in 2025, I cannot tell you how excited I am.

The year of living out suitcases, constant logistics, splitting my belongings between storage units, sleeping in 30+ beds and packing my bag every 3 days is finally coming to an end.

To sign a 6-month contract might not sound like a big deal. But after this year, I want nothing more than to enjoy the simple luxury of having all my belongings in one place.

Hopping around has been a necessary (if at times stressful!) step while I've built business momentum. And I'm grateful for all the hosts who've welcomed me into their homes and sorted me out with some solid sublets.

But, now it's time to reclaim my energy.

To stabilise my surroundings so they can re-energise me for all the building that's coming in the next few months. This feels like Charlie 2.0.

Let's gooooooo!

Looking forward to making a home with you Jess

When I was 17, one of my teachers questioned my choice of university in front of the entire class.

They were angry. I'd just turned down "prestigious" Russell Group offers to make Loughborough University my only choice.

I had to justify myself. I told them: "I'm not going to university for the degree. I'm going for the broader education. To join societies, do sports and meet incredible people. I know that will equip me with the entrepreneurial skills to start a business (my dream at the time)".

I didn't have the words for it then, but I was rejecting the default path of specialisation entrenched since the Industrial Revolution. 

This world my teacher valued was one that sought stamps and prestige, only to end up as a cog in the machine. 

My instincts were telling me to prepare for a different world.

Today, I call that world the Age of the undefinable, which rewards synthesisers and polymaths who connect disparate ideas.

That prestigious path wasn't wrong.
It was just built for a world that's eroding.

Now, 10 years later, I'm on business no.3, have built a truly epic community, am finalising my first book and have a career that is 100% undefinable. I'm damn clear on how I uniquely add value, precisely because I chose the broader education over the narrow, default path.

It's wild to think that my 17-year-old's 'mistake' is the foundation of everything I've built.

My book's manuscript is DONE! 🥳

Today is a great day. In fact, it hardly feels real.

18 months after starting and 4 major versions later, I have 36,000 words that I am deeply proud of. What I've created perfectly articulates how to design a unique life that sustains your energy and income. It's my perspective on paper. And it stands as the book only I could create.

I now have a coherent metaphor for the entire book (more on this soon). The stories are relevant, diverse and engaging. And the frameworks have been practically lived by myself, my clients and other undefinables I've met.

I think this is the best thing I've ever created. 

Actually, I know it is. The 110+ early readers who offered their feedback, criticism and support has transformed my initial collection of ideas into the polished manuscript that I know absolutely resonates.

I can't wait to put it in your hands.

Now to put aside my Writer hat and put on my Publisher hat. It's time to add in the final imagery, lock-in the cover design and turn my Google Doc into a physical book you can actually hold, touch and feel.

Exciting times! Let's goooooo.

Recently, I've been trying to live and not just exist.

When life gets busy, my default is to get grinding. I like to lock-in and keep the main thing in my sights until I can come up for air (Christmas this time!).

But, I realised I was ignoring the best part about life:

Actually living.

So, I intentionally set out to add some unnecessary 'distractions' that have nothing to do with being my most productive self.

1) I joined an improv programme. Which is turns out is basically 6 weeks of playing kids games with adults. As a group of complete strangers it's hilarious. We laugh. We play. We have fun. And we grab a pint after.

2) I bought a 400 minute Lime bike pass. It's so much better than the loud overcrowded tube. And I now get to play "What's in my basket?". So far I've found a still-warm burrito, an unopened Rummikub, and some leftover takeaway. I'll let you know when I find the lottery ticket.

3) I hosted a smoothies and spontaneity meet-up for the undefinable community. We grabbed a drink in Elephant & Castle, ventured into a flea market (where I got a new coat!) and explored an arts museum. All on one warm Autumnal afternoon.

A month later, here's what I've learnt:

These 'unnecessary' activities aren't a distraction. They're what give me the energy to keep showing up with a smile on my face.

They aren't draining me. They're energising me.

Semi Senior Accountant

Senior Accountant

Have you given up on managing accountancy & taxes for your business?

Setting up a business is no walk in the park, let alone managing the financial aspect of it.

It requires intense efforts to make sure you’re on the right track.

Miss one tax deadline, and you might end up paying double in penalty.

I know it’s overwhelming as a founder.

Now imagine you have an expert who takes care of all your accountancy and tax situation.

You don’t have to worry about taxes.
You don’t have to panic while planning your budget.
You know where you stand in terms of profits and losses.
You have someone you can rely on to manage the financials.

Amazing, isn’t it?

That’s what getting an expert feels like.

I’m Ellis, an ACCA Chartered Accountant, Director at EA Accountancy, and Author of The Solopreneur Start-Up Bible.

I help, advise, and guide start-ups, businesses, and young entrepreneurs through the whirlwind of accountancy and taxes.

I’ve served over 300+ satisfied clients, and I’m all in to help you!

Now, I’m not the accountant who speaks to you once a year in a robotic tone.

I’m more like your business partner.

I help you every step of the way (even acting like a therapist if you need one).

My services include:

• VAT
• Accounts
• Payroll
• Pensions
• Tax Advice
• Tax Planning
• Personal Tax
• Bookkeeping
• Accounting Software
• Company Incorporations
• Registered Office Address
• Capital Gains Tax Disclosures
• Business Planning And Advice

I also offer consultation for new business owners or people looking to hire an accountant so you have clarity for your next steps.

If you think I can help you with any of the above or would like to connect over a Discovery Call, feel free to drop me a DM.

Zoom is convenient.

But it’ll never replace sitting across from someone, having a real chat, and realising they’re exactly why you started your business in the first place.

Last week, I finally met one of our clients, Sarah Yeary, in person for the first time.

We’ve worked together for over a year - countless calls, reports but sitting down face-to-face just hits differently.

You get to see the person behind the business.
The drive, the ideas, the long nights that don’t show up in a P&L.
And you realise something simple:
Business isn’t built on software or spreadsheets.
It’s built on trust.

In a world obsessed with speed, AI, and efficiency, it’s easy to forget that the most valuable thing you can give someone isn’t data - it’s your time.

And meeting Sarah reminded me of that.

She didn’t just talk about numbers.
We talked about growth, religion, challenges, and life outside of work.
It was one of those conversations that remind you why you do what you do.

So, thank you Sarah - for showing me around, for the brilliant conversation, and for being such a solid example of what happens when someone truly backs themselves.

You’ve built something special, and it’s been class watching you grow.

Here’s the truth:
Systems, reports, and dashboards are great.
But none of that matters if you don’t understand the person you’re helping.

Because people don’t remember what you did for them -
They remember how you made them feel.

You’re Not Unemployable. You’re Undisciplined.

Everyone keeps saying they’re “unemployable” these days.
Let’s be honest - most of the time, it’s rubbish.

You’re not “unemployable.”
You’re just:

- Not as good at your job as you think
(TikTok convinced you otherwise.)

- You can’t take feedback
The minute someone gives advice, they’re “toxic.”

- You don’t listen to clients
You hear what you want. Ignore what matters.

- You hate structure
But structure is literally the reason businesses function.

- You think freedom = doing whatever you want
Running a business requires more discipline than employment.

The whole “I’m too smart for a job” narrative is getting embarrassing now.
Some people are genuinely built for business.

Most people just don’t want to admit they weren’t great employees…
and running a business exposed the same habits.

Being “unemployable” isn’t the flex you think it is.

Being accountable, reliable, coachable, and actually good at your craft - that’s the flex.

In my experience working with growing agencies…
The founders who scale the fastest?
They’d be great employees and great business owners.

Because the skillset is the same:
✔ Discipline
✔ Listening
✔ Execution
✔ Communication
✔ Ownership

Call it employable. Call it entrepreneurial.

Just stop pretending ego, lateness and chaos are traits of a “visionary.”
