    • The you of today thanks you for it
    • You created a plan and you forged the path forward
    • While not every day has been easy, you built the strategies and tactics to push past and come out stronger
    • You no longer feel stuck or in the constant grind 

You feel fulfilled in career and life

    And, I’m here to support you in making that life a reality.

    Hi, I’m Nikki

     

    The normalization of the hustle culture and fast-paced intense corporate culture caused me to lose myself and who I wanted to be. 

    As a Black woman and mom, I spent 15 years navigating the corporate and nonprofit leadership world. My overachiever mindset pushed me to the point of burnout where I instinctively held limiting beliefs and followed the status quo. 

    I realized I didn’t have the presence or mental capacity to be my highest and best self for my two young kids and knew something needed to change.

    By investing in my own coach I was able to rediscover who I was and reset my priorities.

    In 2021, I quit my job and followed my true life’s purpose of helping other women and leaders reach their highest potential. Having seen firsthand the power of creating a safe and nurturing space for self-awareness and discovery, it’s my mission to help you thrive.

    Nikki helped me tap into my internal confidence

    “With her guidance, I was able to interrogate areas where I wasn’t able to tap into my full potential and work through them using mindfulness.

    The outcomes were that I showed up differently in my workspace as well as my personal life.

    This wholistic approach to coaching has been extremely beneficial for me.”

    Nikki moves beyond the traditional coaching model

    “So often coaching and executive partnership is rooted in white supremacy work culture.

    One that compartmentalizes our sacred personhood and reduces us to productivity and society’s definition of “impact.” Nikki both models and challenges me to revisit my vision while exploring the nuances of my intersectional identity.

    Nikki moves beyond the traditional coaching model to one of courageous partnership.”

    My time with Nikki has been invaluable

    “My time with Nikki has been invaluable. I gained clarity about, and momentum toward, where I want to be in the next chapter of my career in ways that feel true to my head and my heart. I have learned to reach out to ask for help from others. I would have been talking in my own head and not vocalizing what I wanted. I’ve learned it’s important to give yourself the time and invest in yourself, a little bit goes a long way and the time pays back with dividends.”

    – Allison | VP CHUBB

    Nikki created a safe space where I could bring my wonderings without judgement

    “I started working with Nikki when the feelings of burnout were real and impacting me and everyone around me. Nikki created a safe space where I could bring my wonderings without judgement and leave our time with actionable steps forward. She helped me find my voice, develop confidence in what I want to achieve, and showed me how to leverage gratitude in challenging situations. In working with Nikki, I was able to reinvest in myself and create the mindset needed to be both the professional and mom I know I can be.”
