Who am I ?
Hello, I’m Nic—a mother, womb wellness teacher, naturopath, systemic therapist, yogi, HTMA minerals practitioner, and a dedicated advocate for women’s health and wellbeing.
For over 20 years, I’ve been holding space for women through group work, circles, and transformative practices. My journey began in criminal youth justice, where I developed a deep commitment to supporting others through life’s challenges.
As a single mum of two boys and carer to my disabled son for 22 years, I’ve walked a path of resilience and profound growth. These experiences have shaped my passion for nurturing women through life’s stages—honoring the cyclical nature of health, the rhythms of the body, and the power of self-connection.
Nature is my grounding force; I find joy in walking, cold-water swimming, and embracing the beauty of the wild. Through my work, I weave together minerals, yoga, systemic healing, and embodiment practices to guide women toward balance, vitality, and a deeper connection to themselves.
Let’s walk this path of nourishment together.
Working with women across life’s thresholds
My main focus is to support women through life’s significant transitions, honouring and empowering their journeys from maiden to mother to matriarch. This work resonates deeply with a desire to create a supportive and nurturing space for women to navigate these powerful shifts.
The work of Elizabeth Davis and Carol Leonard, particularly the Women's Wheel of Life, provides a strong framework and impetus for this calling. Their model highlights the cyclical nature of women's lives and the unique challenges and opportunities presented at each stage. This understanding fuels a desire to provide holistic support tailored to these specific thresholds.
Skills & approach
My background and training in the following areas allow me to offer a uniquely comprehensive and sensitive approach to threshold work:
Embodiment: Helping women connect with their bodies' wisdom and intuition, fostering self-awareness and empowering them to navigate change from within. This is crucial during transitions when physical and emotional shifts can be profound.
Womb wellness and Yoni Shakti: A deep understanding of women's health needs across the lifespan, including hormonal changes, reproductive health, and the unique challenges faced at each threshold. This allows for informed and targeted support.
Systemic therapy: recognising that women exist within a network of relationships and societal influences. This perspective allows for exploring the impact of these systems on a woman's experience of transition and addressing any imbalances.
Yoga: Utilising yoga as a tool for physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Yoga can be particularly powerful during transitions, offering grounding, stress reduction, and a deeper connection to the body. My training in Tantra and non-duality informs my approach, helping women connect not only to their bodies but also to their inherent wisdom and inner knowing. This includes exploring the concept of Dharma – one's unique purpose and path – through movement, breathwork, and meditation. By integrating these ancient teachings, I can guide women to discover and embody their authentic selves, navigate life transitions with greater clarity and intention, and align with their true calling. This can be particularly helpful during times of change when women may be questioning their identity or seeking a deeper sense of meaning.
Trauma-informed approach: Creating a safe and supportive space for women to explore their experiences, recognising the potential impact of past trauma on their ability to navigate life transitions. This approach prioritises safety, agency, and healing.
Nervous system healing: I adopt a trauma-informed approach grounded in Polyvagal Theory to support nervous system regulation and resilience, crucial for navigating life transitions. By understanding nervous system responses, women can learn to recognise a disorganised nervous system and cultivate tools for stability and resilience. This approach empowers women to move through change with greater ease and confidence, fostering agency and resilience through practices that offer balance and understanding unique to individual need.
These skills are specifically tailored to support women at each threshold. I appreciate all women are different and no one size fits all.
