Our true nature is revealed when we learn to listen to the wisdom within ourselves.

Living from wholeness and with empathy while holding space for our humanness will change the world.

By creating space for love and grief we recognize that we are part of something  bigger than ourselves.

Imagine stepping into a life where you feel deeply connected to yourself, your body, and your nervous system—where trust in your own path replaces fear and uncertainty. I believe that embracing the beautiful journey of being human starts with recognizing your wholeness and the patterns that shape your experiences. My work is about helping you move beyond survival patterns to create profound transformation and self-trust.

Who I Am

I’m Nicole—a guide and teacher who understands the frustration of feeling stuck in old patterns despite years of personal growth. Like you, I’ve faced the impact of survival patterns, societal conditioning, and ancestral influences. Over the years, I’ve discovered the power of connecting to my body and nervous system to create lasting transformation. Now, I share this work with others, providing the tools, support, and compassionate space to help you reconnect with your wholeness and trust your path.

I am just like you—shaped by patterns rooted in survival, conditioning, and societal pressures. Yet, I am also whole and sovereign, here with gifts and on a journey to expand as part of the collective consciousness.

Fun Facts About Me

Here’s a glimpse into who I am beyond the work I do:

  • I don’t have a middle name, and my first language is German.
  • I have a dog named Rio who reminds me to be in the moment.
  • I used to want to be a firefighter and even did a placement at a fire department in Germany.
  • I love spacious, slow mornings—unless the surf is good!
  • I’m a Manifesting Generator, with my sun in Taurus, rising in Sagittarius, and moon in Aries.
  • My goal is to travel the world in a camper van, offering in-person workshops. I'm currently on the road and hope to be offering some workshops soon!
  • Oh, and I don’t drink coffee... or pee in my wetsuit!

My Journey

Adventure has always been a part of who I am—embracing spontaneity, skiing and snowboarding in Whistler, surfing globally, and coaching yoga and surfing at camps. These actions gave me a sense of independence and freedom, but they also served as a way to protect myself, keeping me guarded and avoiding vulnerability.

Over time, I became aware of how my survival patterns shaped this lifestyle. My self-reliance and constant movement protected me from vulnerability, yet these patterns also aligned with my love for adventure and spontaneity. I’ve learned to see this range—how some actions reflect survival strategies while others align with our true nature.

Now, I’ve transitioned to traveling in my RV, living more slowly and intentionally. This lifestyle still honors my adventurous spirit but comes from a more spacious, open, and vulnerable place. It’s a practice of truly embodying the principles I share with others.

To me, the journey is about recognizing when I’m acting from patterns and when I’m in alignment with my truth. Deepening my understanding of the human experience means staying curious, holding space for my edges, and choosing to engage with life’s messiness with empathy and courage. Through this work, I’ve transformed my relationship with myself, my body, and my nervous system—and I’m here to guide you in doing the same. It’s not easy, but it excites me to guide others on this ongoing exploration of what’s possible through inquiry and connection.

How I Work

My practice blends a variety of modalities, but most importantly, how I guide and support others reflects the knowledge I’ve gained through personal inquiry and lived experience. Teaching from an embodied sense of knowing is central to my work—and I aim to guide you toward deepening your relationship with your own inner wisdom.

I’m committed to supporting people in creating change at both cellular and energetic levels. My workshops and programs provide educational and experiential tools to help you move out of survival mode, regulate your nervous system, and recognize your inherent wholeness as a sovereign being.

My intuitive and awareness-based style allows me to tune into what’s unfolding in others’ experiences. I support clients in exploring conditioning and patterns rooted in trauma—including shock, developmental, and intergenerational dynamics—and guide them toward their innate sense of self and wholeness.

I weave spirituality and science into my work, drawing on training in modalities such as Feldenkrais® (the work of Moshe Feldenkrais), Somatic Experiencing® (Peter Levine), and Somatic Practice (Kathy Kain). I also integrate foundational knowledge from Internal Family Systems (Richard Schwartz) and lessons from my spiritual practice and deep soul work.

What Makes My Approach Different?

My approach bridges science, spirituality, and lived experience to guide you through an embodied, experiential journey. Unlike methods that focus solely on the mind or external solutions, we take a deep dive into the root of your patterns—those shaped by your personal history, intergenerational influences, and cultural conditioning.

Using modalities like Feldenkrais®, Somatic Experiencing®, and Internal Family Systems, we work with the stories stored in your cells to:

  • Untangle the ways you’ve learned to survive and create new pathways for growth.
  • Support the body’s innate ability to restore balance and coherence, allowing for greater ease and flow in your experience.
  • Deepen your connection to the full spectrum of the human experience, attuning to the intelligence that moves through you and all of life.

The essence of my work is rooted in discovering what’s stuck in a survival pattern. This could be:

  • A state of ON'ness—alert, hypervigilant, anticipating what's next.
  • A defensive, protective state—guarded and bracing for impact.
  • A need to control and manage everything to feel safe.
  • Shutdown, disconnection, collapse, or dissociation.

When we’re stuck in these states, they shape how we move through life—affecting how we relate to others, how our organs and tissues function, and even how our energy body flows.

Through my work, I bring attention to what’s not working and what is working, recognizing the importance of coherence in the system. By supporting what is already functioning well, we create the conditions for your system to recognize that moving out of survival states and into coherence is possible., exploring what didn’t get to happen—whether it’s an incomplete self-protective response like fight or flight, or the deeper burdens that have been carried for too long. I work intuitively, sensing what’s happening in your system, helping you move back into safety, connection, and coherence. This is about shifting out of old imprints of abandonment, betrayal, or feeling like an outcast—and into a felt sense of belonging, mattering, and integration.

If you’re ready to explore your patterns, heal your trauma, and reconnect with your wholeness, I invite you to book a call. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan, guiding you toward healing, wholeness, and the confidence to be yourself.

"To experience Nicole’s capacity to hold with love the sneaky and wonderful ways that survival patterns show up is the biggest gift I believe someone could give themselves. "

Leah, England

"The session we had together last week was probably the most subtle work we’ve done, but truly has been the most profound. I can’t tell you the shift I feel in my nervous system. My whole life I’ve never felt settled or peaceful around my Mum. Always slightly jacked and quite alert. All of that is gone. And what has taken its place is peacefulness. I’ve never felt this relaxed in her presence and I wanted to say thank you. This work is so subtle but my god, does it work. Can’t quite believe we got to the core of that"

Penny, Australia

"Low-self esteem, racing thoughts, hyper-awareness, fear of connection, feeling like I don't belong, wondering why I keep myself busy-busy? DISCOVER allowed me the time and space to go inward. Time to explore those parts of myself that I keep hidden- the parts that feel broken, bad and shameful. The parts the feel unlovable and unbearable. DISCOVER allowed me to realize and feel my wholeness for the first time in my life. I was able to hold my own hand and face the parts of myself that were not safe. And I am able to sit with the discomfort now, knowing that I am whole regardless."

Kelly, USA

"My anxiety has lessened so significantly I have gotten off my anxiety medication. I have felt such a sense of community and permission to be all of me. My friends always try to fix me, here, I am not just heard, seen, and understood. Of course I have to mention my sense of wholeness. This is a reality, not just an Idea or a circle on a piece of paper. I literally know it it true."

To all my clients and program participants; thank you for showing up as YOU in all of your patterning and conditioning, and in your truth. Without you I would not have the wisdom I have today. You have shown me how brilliant we as human beings truly are. Your commitment and your willingness to create change inspires me every fricken day. I can’t thank you enough.

To all my family and friends. I love you. Thank you for being part of my journey as I shift out of being independent and protected and discover what it means to belong, to be supported, and to not have to do it alone.

And most importantly, thank you to my dog Rio for the unconditional love and presence and for always reflecting my states back to me. I don’t know where I would be without you at my side!
