Testimonials

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.

Louise Hall-Strutt
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!

Anita Patel
Director, Owner - Apex Promotions

I highly recommend Nicole especially if you are stuck, feel lost and have no idea what the next step is to take. During my first session with Nicole I was in tears of frustration. After just a few sessions I finally felt a weight lift off of my shoulders and gained clarity which enabled me to take the next step in my life with confidence. I feel this huge sense of empowerment and have developed confidence in who I am and what it is I want in life. I absolutely could not have achieved this with out Nicole’s guidance and support.

WOW! Nicole works wonders!


She has a "knack" of pulling out all the "stuff" in your head and helping you formalise it. She has so many suggestions, ways of organising and making sense of your goals, plans and how to go about “making it happen”.


I felt comfortable with her easy manner, professionalism and great communication. I would highly recommend her.

I always look forward to our sessions and I come away so positive and with a renewed appreciation for the fact that I love what I do!

Piet Els

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!

Marketing Communications Professional

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

At first I was a bit sceptical about a business coach, but decided to give it a try. It has honestly been one of the best things I have ever done for myself. Nicole is very easy to work with and is amazing at keeping you on track. Her no nonsense attitude is very good for people like me who tend to procrastinate. Nicole has fantastic ideas and makes you think outside the square. My favorite traits about Nicole are that she is incredibly calm and very logical. I highly Recommend working with Nicole.

Merchandising Manager - Farmers Trading Company 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.
