About Nicola
Relationships coach
and Trainer
/facilitator
I support people to enjoy wellbeing, confidence and happiness, in kind, healthy relationships, in both professional and personal life.
I’m a relationships coach and trainer/facilitator of 20 years experience. I’m deeply committed to living what I teach, and to bringing my ongoing learning and life experience to my work.
In my early twenties I took a masters degree in community development and started out supporting the empowerment of local communities. I soon realised that community empowerment is impossible without the individuals of those communities becoming personally empowered in their own lives and relationships, so I began a new career in training, starting with an assertiveness course.

I loved seeing how people’s lives transformed when they learned how to say No and Yes clearly and kindly. Many reported being newly empowered to speak up at work, handle difficult conversations more effectively and set healthy boundaries; resulting in more confidence, capability and effectiveness at work, and reducing conflict and improving communication.
I continued to develop wellbeing and relationship-centred courses, including: communication skills, customer care, group work (dynamics) and stress management. This expanded over the years to include the workplace issues I work with today via bespoke training and coaching.
My own ongoing professional development equips me to provide emotionally intelligent training and support for a powerful impact on workplace wellbeing and communication. This has included training with Jan Day, Voice Dialogue training with Transforming Dialogue and a Year of Polyvagal with Deb Dana.
