Who's Cordelia Kate?

Nappies, Late Night Laptop Sessions… and Grit!

I’m Cordelia Kate – mum of four, former nurse, and the rebellious creator behind Rebellious Business. I didn’t build my business from a beach hut or a glamorous co-working space. I built it between nappy changes, late night laptop sessions, and the kind of grit you discover when quitting isn’t an option.

When I stepped away from nursing, I wanted a life where I could be with my kids and build something meaningful. I had no audience, no “ins” and no magic blueprint. What I did have was a deep understanding of people. Real humans. Real conversations. Real connection.

In 2020, when the world shut down, I launched The Rebellious Business Network to bring entrepreneurs together during the chaos of lockdown. It became a place to learn how to market like a human, stay connected, and keep moving forward when everything felt uncertain. That community grew fast and became the foundation of everything that followed.

Since then, I’ve helped thousands of entrepreneurs grow their audience, build trust, and get clients through simple, human-first marketing that doesn’t rely on sleaze, scripts or pressure.

And just to be clear – I’m not trying to rewind marketing back to the Dark Ages (impossible much). I’m not “anti-tech” or anti-AI. I believe in using automations, modern tools, and AI to make marketing easier, faster and more efficient. But technology should amplify your humanity, not replace it. The rebels I serve want results without losing their personality or their soul, so I teach them how to use tech in a way that feels honest, connected, and human at the core.
