Meet Nicola

I’m Nicola, the founder of Life Now Coaching, and I work with professional women in midlife who know, deep down, that something has shifted — even if they can’t quite put their finger on it yet.

For over 20 years I worked in senior leadership roles at Nike, so I understand the pressure, pace, and expectations that come with being capable, driven, and relied upon by everyone around you. From the outside, life can look “sorted”. Inside, many women I work with feel tired, foggy, flat, and quietly disconnected from themselves. I know that place well — my own experience of anxiety, burnout and perimenopause was the moment I realised that pushing harder was no longer the answer.

Today, I help women reconnect with their health as the foundation for everything else — their energy, confidence, clarity, and sense of self. My work blends evidence-based women’s health education with practical, habit-led coaching, so change feels doable, not overwhelming.

At the heart of my approach is my RESET framework, which focuses on five pillars: mindset, movement, nutrition, sleep and stress. Rather than quick fixes or rigid programmes, I guide women to make small, meaningful shifts that support their hormones, nervous system, and lifestyle — and most importantly, help them become the woman they want to be in this next chapter of life.

Midlife isn’t a decline. It’s an invitation. An opportunity to stop running on empty, to stop putting yourself last, and to build a life that feels strong, grounded and energising again.

Whether you’re navigating perimenopause, feeling out of sync in your body, or simply ready to invest in your wellbeing in a more intentional way, my work is about giving you clarity, confidence, and a steady path forward — so you don’t just cope, you genuinely feel good in your own skin again.

I’m so looking forward to welcoming you into this space.
