Meet Nicole Hope

I believe that we are all here to grow through our experiences. To try to understand what it is to connect in love and appreciation for life, for nature and for the people we are entwined with.  

​

I did not always see life this way. I saw it as a space for anxiety, fear, perfectionism and control. Until my late 30's I carefully crafted a precise, traditional way of living that matched societal norm and what I believed the people around me expected from me. And though it wasn't horrible. It also wasn't me and I found myself wildly depressed, confused and lost. 

​

Through years of practicing mindfulness, connecting with nature, reframing my relationships, choosing new perspectives of my life and deepening my connection with my-self, I was able to heal from years of anxiety and depression. To understand and embody self love. To recognize my purpose. To show up for people in a way to guide them towards their own healing and midlife shifts.

​​

I now understand that during life we have far more choices than we believe we do. We have a truth within that we are trained to ignore, thus searching externally for ways to create a better life. It is our responsibility to ourselves to do the work to connect more deeply with our inner truth.

 

In doing so we heal, grow and ultimately get the opportunity to enjoy our time here more because it is aligned with a deeper knowing. Not because life suddenly becomes perfect, but because the ease and joy of life comes from recognizing the value and learning in every moment; whether it's a tough lesson or beautiful, awe inspiring experience.

​

But... we have to have enough understanding and connection with ourselves to grow, evolve and be inspired to align ourselves with a satisfying and happy life. I can help you fast track that understanding of yourself and connect you more with your body so you can get the most out of every day and out of the rest of your life.
