Hey there, I'm Ruby Armstrong
Welcome to My Retro land!
Growing up in my parents' vintage shop, I was surrounded by the elegance and charm of bygone eras.
Our shop was a treasure trove of retro fashion, classic records, and memorabilia from the 50s, 60s, and 70s—decades that defined style, innovation, and resilience.
This rich tapestry of the past didn't just spark my interest; it ignited a passion to blend the old with the new, creating something timeless yet contemporary.
In my twenties, I found myself in a corporate job that felt overwhelmingly disconnected from the values I cherished.
The fast-paced, tech-driven environment left me yearning for a balance. I began studying business history, discovering how timeless principles could address modern challenges.
This fusion of retro wisdom and contemporary innovation became the cornerstone of my journey, transforming me into the Star of Retro.
FINDING BALANCE IN A MODERN WORLD
my unique approach
I developed a coaching approach that marries the best of past decades with modern business strategies.
My sessions help clients navigate today’s frenetic world using timeless tactics and innovative solutions. Think of it as tuning a retro radio to find that perfect station—clear, inspiring, and just what you needed.
My ability to turn challenges into opportunities makes me an inspiring and relatable coach.
Blending Historical Wisdom with Modern Innovation
My mission is to help businesses and individuals achieve success through a unique blend of historical wisdom and modern innovation.
In my coaching sessions, we dive into lessons from the past to conquer today's challenges, ensuring that you reach your goals with a perspective that’s both practical and unique.
