About Me
I’m Toks Aruoture, a TEDx speaker, entrepreneur, and coach with a deep belief that everything we go through has a purpose, and that includes the challenges we wish we could forget.
Over the past 20 years, I’ve learned that the stories we carry, even the ones we feel ashamed of, hold incredible power. Losing everything early in my career wasn’t just a setback; it became the foundation for the life and business I’ve built today. Starting over with just $75, I created The Baby Cot Shop, a luxury baby furniture brand in Chelsea, and more recently, The Revealry, a bespoke furniture company for prime properties.
But my journey isn’t just about business; it’s about people. I’ve discovered that the key to lasting success lies in authenticity- embracing who you are, sharing your story, and letting go of perfection. Whether I’m speaking on stage, coaching entrepreneurs, or creating content, my mission is simple: to show you that your story is the very thing that will unlock the life you’ve been dreaming of.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: your breakthrough starts when you stop running from your past and start seeing it as the foundation of your future. The possibilities are limitless when you own your narrative.
Are you ready to take that step? Let’s make it happen.

Regret is rather like a cage that holds our dreams captive. I’ve been pondering on this lately...
