Originally from Preston, Lancs,Zoe Bennett is known as ‘The Motivational Queen’, and was recently awarded the British Empire Medal and was one of the first people to receive the honour from King Charles. The medal is a British & Commonwealth award given for meritorious civil (or military) service worthy of recognition by the Crown and Zoe was given hers (quote) “for services to charity and inspiring disadvantaged people.” Zoe has fought back from adversity and become known for her dedication to helping others through her expertise in developing resilience, employability skills, entrepreneurial mindset and personal mindset development. A mother of 3, Birmingham-based Zoe is an award-winning inspirational speaker & Founder of the Multicultural Business and Community Champion Awards. She is a personal development & entrepreneurial mindset coach, TedX speaker & author. While there’s much to celebrate about her achievements, her private, family life contains a tragic past. In 2011, her father, Erroll, 59, was murdered while on holiday in his homeland, Jamacia. Zoe’s determination to seek justice for his death has led her to where she is today, working tirelessly to continue her father's legacy by helping people to overcome trauma and encouraging them, as she puts it, “to be the best version of themselves”. Her inspirational story has made a deep impression on many, including the Prime Minister, who recommended her for her BEM Honour.
