Hi there, I’m Nicole! 

I’m a creative mentor and idea activator. I help creative folks ditch the overwhelm and get the clarity they need to bring their visions to life. 

I consider your vision a sacred calling. Following someone else’s blueprint just won’t work. Instead, I’m about helping you tap into your own deep wisdom to find the path that is right for you.

I bring my whole self to this work. In addition to being a coach and creative mentor, I have 20+ years business experience in the areas of strategy, marketing, and product development.

I’m honored to help you bring your creative dreams into the world.

Here are a few things you should know about me.

Visioning is one of my superpowers. 

I have an uncanny ability to peer into the future, tapping into the wealth of possibilities just beyond the horizon. As such, I’m a master at helping people develop a crystal-clear vision—one that feels powerful and alive. I can also spot a ho-hum vision from a mile away and help shape it into one that lights your soul on fire.   

 

Deep listening is another. 

When we talk, I listen not only to what you say but also to how you say it. I notice how your voice catches when you talk about your kids and how you come alive the minute your passion project comes up. I support you by listening closely, asking questions, and reflecting on what you most need to see. 

I’m an idea ninja. 

If you need ideas, I’ve got them—in spades. Struggling to market your new product? To combine diverse passions into a thriving business? To be more present with your family? I’ve got ideas for that.  

If you need an impartial sounding board to bounce ideas off, I can help with that too.  And, if you’re spinning out with too many ideas, I can help you cut through the noise so you can get clear and focused on what matters most. 

I’m also an action activator.

Part of what made me successful in the corporate world is my ability to catalyze people into action – not with threats or bribes or any such ick. Instead, I help people invest in a vision, get excited, and take action.  And, when you feel stuck or need a boost, I can help you tap back into the core of your vision – your powerful WHY – so you can get moving again.  

I love connecting people, ideas, and information.

One of my superpowers is seeing connections where other people don’t. You might think: What could your interests in rock climbing, gourmet cooking, and the violin have in common? I promise you, there are a million things we can do with that! If you’re struggling to figure out how to bring together seemingly disparate things, I’ve got you covered. 

I believe everything is connected. 

The way I see it is we’re all in this together, and what we do during our time on this planet matters. Our thoughts and actions, or lack of action, create ripples. Ripples that affect our lives, our families, our communities, and the world. This is why I don’t work with folks focused solely on the bottom line.  No judgment; I just know I wasn’t put on this planet to elevate the wants of one above the needs of the collective.

I’m a soul having a human experience, and so are you.

For years, I went to work and checked my soul at the door. As a result, I wound up feeling depleted, restless, and empty. I’ve since learned how important it is to show up with my whole self – body, mind, and spirit. Bringing all three together is not only essential for my well-being, but it also creates a strange kind of magic. Magic that has the power to move mountains and transform lives.

I’m a Human Design Mental Projector, 2/5.

I’m also on the RaX of Explanation. If you don’t know what any of that means, no worries. It just means that I’m here to guide other people in making the best use of their energy. One of the ways I do that is by sharing knowledge in a simple, easy-to-understand way. Another is cutting through the noise of “shoulds” to unpack your next right move and creating practical action steps to get you there.

Nicole’s magic is clarity and momentum. If you are feeling unclear, overwhelmed, or like the way ahead doesn’t feel like a full-body yes, go see Nicole. She’ll help shine a floodlight on the landscape, support you in understanding where the energy is, and help you cultivate better options. It’s what she does.

I was feeling stuck in my business- I knew all the things I “should” be doing and yet, I couldn’t seem to move forward. Within our first session, Nicole helped me see myself more clearly…like shining a spotlight on my strengths and being given a roadmap to how to use those strengths with ease. At the end, I felt lit up and ready to take off in my business – her sessions are priceless!

Rebecca Shisler Marshall, PhD, Centered Living

Working with Nicole allowed me to FINALLY see the common thread that weaves through my multi-passionate, multi-disciplinary business. Where others have told me to choose, or focus, she helped me fully integrate and see the clarity around the commonality of my offerings that I always sensed was there.  I now have clear ideas for language, clients, and marketing. A truly invaluable experience!

Nicole helped me think through my big picture and recognize needed access points for people I serve. Thanks to her questions and insights, I have a much clearer understanding of how the project will flow and where it fits in my business.

Amy Hallberg, Courageous Wordsmith

Nicole helped me make sense of – and connect the dots between – what I thought were completely disparate interests. I left the session with a big-picture perspective, a clear understanding of the golden thread that connects my focus areas, as well as detailed next steps that will start moving me in the direction I want to go.

Nicole is a smart, effective, and straightforward coach.  She’s focused and gets right to the heart of the matter…uncovering the painful thoughts that are holding me back.  And she does so with empathy and compassion, tapping into her own life experience as a businesswoman, wife, and mother.

I would recommend working with Nicole to anyone who wants greater clarity on where they are heading.

Working with Nicole is like being wrapped in a warm cocoon of love and safety. Her gentle kindness and her ability to tease out the nuances of the energy surrounding an issue are a superb combination. Over the time we worked together, she helped me not only to define more clearly my purpose as a coach, but she also helped me find my direction as well. You cannot go wrong working with Nicole.

Lisa Lindberg, Om Cookie Coaching

Nicole has a unique gift for helping people dig deep within.  She has enabled me to open my world to new ways of thinking and believing in myself.  She has given me lifelong tools that I can apply to every aspect of my life that will allow me to live with ease, happiness, joy, and LOVE.  I will be forever grateful for having the privilege to be coached by Nicole and I know my family is thankful for that as well!

M. Young, Hospice Nurse

It was a great day! [Nicole] did a wonderful job of leading us through the experience. My friends all felt so safe and grateful for a place to open up and get centered on what we would want to see a shift in our lives. I would absolutely recommend this workshop. It exceeded my expectations and I love the art I was able to create.
