She's Lost Control
From Million-Pound Founder to Mindset Coach | Chloë Downes on Career Pivots, Purpose & Creative Careers

Chloë grew up in musical theatre and dance, questioned everything her teachers told her, and somehow ended up founding her own talent management agency, SHFT. Then she exited it — and started all over again.
In this episode, Chloe shares one of the most honest conversations we've had on the show about what it actually means to build something, let it go, and figure out what comes next. We talk about the realities of running an agency — the culture, the legal lessons, the exit planning nobody tells you about until it's almost too late.
We also get into coaching, building sustainable income streams as a creator, and the relationship with money that Chloe has spent years unpicking — from prioritising financial independence early to rethinking what wealth actually means.
Raw, thoughtful and genuinely full of wisdom — this one's for anyone who's ever wondered if there's a different way to define success.
⚡ What we cover:
→ Growing up in musical theatre and how creativity shaped her career path
