Rachael B

Rachael B. is a freelance writer, poet and personal coach. She refers to herself as a ‘self-care activist and growth catalyst,’ to describe the work she does to facilitate personal and professional growth, offering a gentle, non-judgemental space for both.

Although she’s been writing for as long as she can remember, Rachael didn’t call herself a writer until someone paid her to do it. On a day to day basis, she writes for small businesses, freelancers and organisations doing good in the world. Her first poetry collection, Sauce will thicken on standing, described as a “cauldron of soul soothing words,” was published in May 2023.

For her second collection, From the Ashes (out October 2026), Rachael has turned her attention outwards, to share the journeys of many women who have experienced emotional and/or physical abuse. The poems within have been co-created with women who have shared their experiences, which Rachael has transformed into poetry that recognises, empathises with and empowers survivors of domestic abuse, and can facilitate understanding in anyone who reads it.
