Nicole keeps you on track, holds you accountable and is always available as a sounding board when problems arise, as a solo business owner this was invaluable. Nicole is also very well networked, so able to recommend solutions and trusted people to assist with other areas of the business. I highly recommend working with Nicole.

Managing Director - Altitude Recruitment

I've had the pleasure of working with Nicole for over 1.5 years, and she has truly changed my life—not just on a business level but personally as well. When you're a small business owner, it’s hard to separate the two, and Nicole understands that balance perfectly. When we first started working together, I didn’t realise how little structure I had in place. Nicole guided me through improving my processes, setting KPIs, and building stronger customer relations.Her knowledge and approachable nature made all the difference. She has a way of helping you figure things out on your own, while providing the right guidance along the way. Thanks to her, my business has transformed, and I’ve grown immensely as a person. I can’t recommend Nicole highly enough!

I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone who is seeking a coach who is highly professional and skilled. Nicole is very creative and accommodating; and, she knows exactly what techniques and skills to apply to bring out the best in you. She creates a safe environment where you can have meaningful conversations and walk away feeling confident and enriched. Furthermore, she easily puts you in a comfortable zone where you can gain clarity and structure in your thought process -- in order to develop yourself into a focused and better version of yourself. Each session with her has been positively beneficial and insightful.

Business Development Manager - Rosser Underwriting Ltd

This Emotional Intelligence workshop was invaluable. I learnt so much about myself, and came away with definite areas for improvement. Even though I considered myself to have a fairly strong EQ going into the course, I learnt through the course that EQ is much more than just having an understanding of how people may feel in a certain situation, or knowing what not to say to a person so they don’t feel bad. It’s also about understanding our own emotions and how we behave and react when put in certain situations, and of course Nicole gave us the tools to help!


Nicole was an excellent facilitator, she was able to adapt to everyone’s needs, and knew how to ensure that each person gained as much as possible from completing the course. I highly recommend Nicole’s EQ Course to everybody. Our business will absolutely be running this course again.

Working with Nicole has been transformative -- I will be taking these skills with me for years to come.

Nicole is such a talented business coach with a perfect combination of qualities and I would not hesitate to recommend her. She is professional, sincere, warm and does an amazing job of listening to you and therefore being able to tailor her coaching services to ensure that you meet the objectives she helps you to define. I have come away from my series of sessions feeling so much lighter, more focused, with some direction and excitement about the path ahead. Thank you Nicole!

I recently worked with Nicole as a coach for my business. Before this I did wonder why people would actually use a business coach, now I know why. Nicole has helped be set goals, stay focused on what needed to be done and kept me on track. Whether a start up or growing business Nicole has a superb skillset to help you on your journey to excellence. It is easy to get overwhelmed when in business but having Nicole allowed me to remove the clutter and stay grounded. Highly recommend Nicole as a business coach at any stage of your business.

Gillian Lynn
Independent Consultant - EC Credit Control

I engaged Nicole initially for a business consultation. I had a specific end goal in mind and an idea of how I wanted to achieve that goal but was looking for some support in reaching it. Whilst working with Nicole I quickly realised that some work needed to be done on a personal front in order to then grow my business ideas. Nicole was able to help me gain some clarity around what my real passion was and how I could turn that into meeting my end goal.


Working with Nicole has kept me accountable and whilst she is empathetic she can also be tough when its needed, I absolutely recommend Nicole’s services to anyone who is wanting some support to find their way forward in both personal and business.
