Testimonials

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Nicole as my business coach, and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s so knowledgeable, supportive, and easy to talk to. Her guidance gave me clarity and confidence, and she really helped me push past some of the challenges I was facing within my company. Even whilst I was away on holiday she was overseeing the Operations Manager on a weekly basis and assisted with issues that arose to enable me to have some time away. She’s not just a coach—she genuinely cares and goes the extra mile to help you succeed. If you’re looking for someone who’s got your back and knows their stuff, I am more than happy to recommend Nicole. She is amazing!”

Getting a business coach was the best decision I have ever made for my business. When I contacted Nicole I had no idea what to expect and didn’t really understand how she would be able to help me. I had all these ideas and I thought I had a good grip on what I was doing but still felt like I was getting nowhere. Nicole helped me understand how my business works, how I can take what I want my business to look like and actually make it happen. I had no idea what my financial where doing and if you had asked my how much money I was making my answer would have been I don’t know. Now I can look at my business and know exactly what I need to do, exactly where I need to improve and how. She showed and taught me how to run my business to the fullest.


I have never been so happy and never been so organised in my life. I actually have time to spend with my family and I am able to separate my work life and my personal life. I never feel overwhelm with my work as I now plan everything and know exactly what has to be done when. Nicole has really saved my business and has really allowed me to see that I can make something of this and that I can reach my goals. I cannot recommend Nicole more!!!!

As an instructor, she ranks amongst the best that I have had the privilege to work alongside, and as a supervisor she commands the respect and love of her subordinates.

I came to and what seemed like a brick wall in my business and in particular in the sales area .Nicole was able to ask a series of pertinent questions that unearthed beliefs, patterns of behaviour, values that I had held that were restricting my movement forward to what I had seen in my mind how the year would play out.


She coaches in such a way that makes you think, reflect, even challenging and you go away knowing you have to put the work in so that change can take place. Since our first coaching session I have started a gratitude journal, looked at different ways of building a pipeline of prospects leading into selling, my thinking has changed and I am a lot more relaxed on the journey that I am travelling now. Nicole always checks in with you to follow up on the last coaching session to really see how you are progressing. I am still continuing today to have Nicole challenge me to new heights in business.


Every successful person that I know has a coach speaking into their lives, bringing encouragement and challenge in order to grow into the full potential of what we were put on the earth for. I would thoroughly recommend Nicole to you and your organisation because it is an investment that makes a real difference.

Dipika Chandra
Founder and CEO - Systematic Success

I have had the joy of working with Nicole as my work coach for 7 years. Through a season of changing work roles, new opportunities, and working remotely, Nicole has been an invaluable source of challenge, encouragement, and learning. The tools she used helped me develop a framework that has improved my professional self-awareness, and helped me be better in every area of my work. Among these tools, the Extended DISC profile and the DISC Leadership Profile were particularly impactful. Nicole’s deep knowledge and understanding of the DISC tool meant that it became a cornerstone of our time together, and empowered me to take specific and purposeful steps toward growth. Nicole’s coaching has been a significant and meaningful contribution to my professional development, and I highly recommend her.

Vanessa Jacometti
Foundation Manager

I would highly recommend business coaching with Nicole. Some highlights of coaching with Nicole are moving into Women's Hormonal Wellness, DISC profiling and getting those unanswered questions I had in my head on how to move forward in my business answered.

I have made significant progress in my business over the last 4 months of coaching with Nicole than the last 4 years in my business on my own. I now have more clarity and confidence on the actions to take to grow myself and my business - from building my brand, doing more networking and what direction to head in for my business.

I have niched based on her recommendation and now I am clear on who I help and how I can help them. Nicole has helped keep me accountable and provided the support and guidance I've needed for my personal growth and business growth.

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.
