WHERE DO YOU NEED SUPPORT?

BURNOUT HAPPENS WHEN STRESS GOES UNCHECKED

Stress is...sneaky...

We get busy, then busier - all of a sudden, the anxiety and overwhelm have taken over. 

But stress doesn't happen in a vacuum - it's not limited to the confines of our office or our minds. 

The fallout from chronic stress seeps into all areas of life.

​​​​​​
At work it looks like: 
​​

  • Overwhelm and missed deadlines

  • Turnover that sinks profits

  • A lack of focus and disengagement

  • Cynicism - "why bother" vibes.

  • Toxic culture that’s hard to reverse.​​

​​​​​​
​At home it looks like:
​

  • Less patience and more apologies

  • More sick days and expensive copays

  • Missed moments with loved ones

  • Decline in mental and emotional health

  • Dwindling joy or sense of purpose

For so many of us in the 1st-Gen & BIPOC community, SURVIVAL has been normalized . . .​

 

​I'm on a mission to change that!

​

. . .and it starts with naming the fact that burnout hits differently for us.

I would absolutely recommend hiring Nicole to speak at your company event or employee enrichment activities!

 

If you're looking for an immersive experience that gets participants feeling the shifts that accompany the material being shared, you'll find a great resource in Nicole.

​

It really helped us empathize with employees who may unknowingly be operating in survival mode. She was such a pleasure to have as a speaker at our workshop!

I'm not feeling burnt out anymore, which has ultimately allowed me to be more present with my family. I have the capacity to be a better mother and partner because I'm not stretched so thin.

 

I'm happier, I'm feeling creative again, I'm not nearly as stressed as I was, and I'm feeling so much more confident in myself.

 

I also feel more inspired to be the cheerleader I need to be for family and colleagues, especially the staff I supervise.

I finally understand boundaries are a necessary and healthy part of any relationship.

 

I have asked for and received multiple raises at work, while at the same finding ways to not work as 'hard' by addressing the root causes of my perfectionism and people pleasing.

 

And I am starting to see a bigger and brighter future for myself where I can live a life that is authentic and not dictated by what what other people think.

Transformational Leadership Coach​

I understand what it's like to lead through overwhelm, when slowing down feels impossible.

After burning out in corporate - not once but twice - I made it my mission to teach the life skills we didn't get at school or at home: the ones that help us create a fulfilling career and purpose-driven life - without the scarcity and survival energy that is consuming our society right now. 

​

For individuals, I support burnout prevention in all areas of life through my signature framework: Root. Reclaim. Revolt.™ - a three-phase roadmap that meets you exactly where you are in the stress cycle, with the tools your nervous system actually needs.

​

Together, we get to the root of the exact beliefs perpetuating the behaviors of over-giving, over-working, and self-abandoning. This deep work helps you (re)claim your confidence, self-worth, purpose, and leadership - restoring clarity from the inside out.


For organizations, I partner with you to uncover the skills gap preventing your leaders from creating the safety, trust, and inclusion needed to keep your teams engaged, effective and happy. This is the heart of your organization - the ones who choose to stand by their leadership and do the important work to move you forward.


Through somatic healing, nervous system regulation, and culturally affirming support, you or your team can unlearn survival patterns, build trust, keep stress manageable and redefine success according to your values. 


Let's revolt against burnout culture together!
