Welcome to Unboxed Thoughts

Here’s where the rulebook gets gently folded into a paper plane and tossed out the window.


Unboxed is a space for curious minds, wild hearts, and anyone who’s ever felt like they didn’t quite fit in but knew that was kind of the point. Written by me, Tracey - The Misfit Coach - these reflections wander through the mess and magic of being human, neurodivergent, and unapologetically real.

Expect stories, insights, questions without easy answers, and the occasional cup of metaphorical tea. It’s all about living life outside the box with heart, humour, and a healthy dose of self-compassion.

You’re welcome here, just as you are.
