I DIDN’T WAKE UP CONFIDENT. I BUILT IT.

And now I help other women do the same, with coaching.

Let’s be real: I didn’t become a Confidence Coach because life handed me a mic and a spotlight.

I became one because I spent years shrinking, doubting, over-performing, and quietly breaking down while everyone else thought I “had it all together.” I know what it’s like to lead teams while your voice shakes. To succeed on paper while questioning your worth behind the scenes. And I know how exhausting it is to carry everyone else, at work, at home and still wonder when it’s your turn.

I’ve walked the path my clients are on: navigating corporate landmines, dealing with bad bosses and bias, being talked over, underestimated, and overlooked. But I also know what happens when a woman stops shrinking and starts shining.

That’s why I created Renewed Impact, a space for high-achieving women who are done playing small and ready to lead with presence, power, and purpose.

“Nicole’s insight, encouragement, and ability to help me silence self-doubt have shaped how I show up in every space I enter. Whether I was navigating tough decisions or charting my next move, her advice always came with clarity, honesty, and heart.She’s a phenomenal leader and coach who brings out the best in those she supports. Her impact on my confidence, direction, and overall mindset has been nothing short of powerful”.

Confidence isn’t a magic trick. It’s a muscle, one that gets stronger the more you use it. I don’t hand you a pep talk and walk away. I work with you to:

  • Unlearn the BS that told you to stay quiet, small, or “grateful”

  • Rewire your inner script so you stop second-guessing and start owning your power

  • Build real-world strategies to speak up, set boundaries, and show up fully, whether you're leading a team, negotiating your worth, or chasing what’s next

I blend coaching, real talk, and accountability with tools that get results. Whether you’re stepping into a new leadership role, bouncing back from a career gut-punch, or simply tired of feeling invisible, I’m here to remind you: You are not the problem. You are the answer.
