Life and Grief

Many of us will be impacted by the experiences of this lifetime. Sometimes it feels as if we might break. Come and be held in life and grief.

Life, love and grief, all interwoven

To be human is to experience and feel it all. Sometimes that feels so impossibly difficult. Allowing ourselves to feel the sorrow and the heartbreak, as well as the joy and the intimate beauty. To be in awe of the cloudy day, and the spring blossom. To enjoy both the green juices and the decadent chocolate.

Life is everything, all of these things and more.

This is a space for all of life.

Where nothing is hidden in the shadows, where we can sit with the immensity of our grief, where we can explore the depths of shame and the intimacy of belonging. Where we remember what’s it’s like to play in the dirt, and be in awe of bubbles.

And most of all, one where we get to do this together, no longer alone, isolated, thinking it’s just you. It isn’t you dear one, it’s this human life, and we’re all so very human.

There’s beauty here, alongside the hurt and pain.

“Working with Nicola is a joy. She coaches for impact in a kind, compassionate and supportive way. She’ll take you to the places you need to go to get the growth and outcome you want.”

ADAM
“Nicola has given me the tools I need to cope and helped me confront things I never realised were holding me back. I feel lighter and have come back to myself. Working with Nicola has changed my life for the better – I can’t thank her enough.”

CHRISTINE
“I feel fully supported and genuinely cared for throughout our work and this, along with using powerful techniques at the right time, unlocked some deep rooted beliefs / narratives that I didn’t realise were there nor connected to my current experiences. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nicola; she brings with her a brilliant mix of experience, knowledge and insight.”

LAUREN
“You have been something very different from whom I thought I needed you to be and possibly more effective than any counsellor I’ve had in the past. I know your presence in my life will be a force for good — as it is in other people’s lives. The impact of your outlook and clarity… just that space to perhaps be more vulnerable than I am even with myself – is immensely powerful.”

NITA
“Nicola has woken me up, I’m now awakened to life, me, my loves. I have started to love myself again and I’m a better wife, mum, daughter, sister and friend.”
