Before joining the Zest Pathway, I knew I wanted to build something of my own, but I had no clear plan. The programme helped me organise my career steps, understand the local market better, and turn my ideas into something I could act on. Within a few months, I was taking on small clients and building my confidence. The trainers saw where I was headed and gave guidance that fit my goals, not generic advice. It was the push I needed.
