“We are all co-creators. We’re all responsible for the reality of our lives.” Niki Moss Simpson
I see you. I hear you. I admire you. I've got your back.
Now what are your dreams and goals for your life?
I'm Niki and I'm a mother, a daughter, an empowerment coach for women and girls and a best-selling author, speaker and facilitator.
My mission is threefold...
Firstly, it is to empower girls and women to discover what makes them happy, motivated, and excited about life and to SHINE, SPARKLE and RADIATE. My vision is of a world where girls are encouraged to become women who refuse to dim their lights and use their innate gifts and talents to make the world a better place for everyone and every thing. Empowering women is key to change and healing and I am here to support and cheerlead you on your journey.
Secondly, it is to support a healthy and thriving mother and daughter relationship based on mutual respect where mums and daughters trust each other, love each other and walk the mum/daughter journey side by side. Healing the "motherline" is vital in order for a daughter to have flourishing relationships with others in her life and the most important relationship to celebrate and work on.
Thirdly, I guide both mothers and daughters through the rite of passage of separation when the time comes for daughters to leave the feathered and safe nest of home. Research has proven that "Empty Nest Syndrome" can provoke identity crisis and feelings of severe loss for mums. Watching our daughters begin their adult lives is both satisfying and "timely" whilst also provoking grief and a loss of purpose.
I support you through mindful techniques, workshops, circles, coaching, retreats and holistic therapies. I have a tool kit of techniques, my empathic intuition and spiritual gifts to call on to find the best way to guide you to being the best version of YOU!
My path
My path so far has taken me from my roots in the north east of England to Africa, Asia and Europe where I have developed a huge appreciation for different cultures, traditions and healing practices. I believe in living a genuine, fulfilling and purposeful life and getting the most from the journey. I currently spend time in my happy place; Sitges, near Barcelona & I work in both Sitges & Barcelona & online through the wonders of ZOOM. India has been calling me back since my initial trip there pregnant with my daughter & seeing the possibilities of exploring the yogic traditions in an authentic way, space having been created by my kiddos journeying their lives without me & a deep desire to challenge myself, be still, meditate, breathe and be with myself, I spent the first 7 weeks in India in 2020. I AM inspired and alive.
My experience
My two teenage children are my greatest source of happiness and inspiration. After 19 years and counting of winging it as a parent, they continue to fascinate and challenge me. Every day, I learn from them and experience some of the world through their eyes.
My experience as a teacher in international education has given me a deep understanding of the challenges young people face as they transition from primary school all the way to university and adulthood, at the hands of our rigid and competition-driven education system. Teaching has taken me from the UK to France, Switzerland, and most recently, Spain, from the classroom, to the role of house parent, to coaching, to facilitating corporate workshops.
My training and experience as a holistic therapist provides me with knowledge of our human bodies and how to keep them functioning with vital health. Using massage, reflexology, Reiki, EFT, chakra balancing and my inspired intuition, I have accompanied hundreds of women and children to increased well-being, confidence and joy. My training as a coach and NLP Practitioner provides me with honed listening skills and a toolbox of techniques to radically shift unconsciously held beliefs and release positive potentials for joy filled living. My Teen Yoga Foundation teen yoga teacher training and experience allows me to introduce our tweens and teens to mindfulness and yoga to add well-being to their busy academic and sport driven lives. As a newly qualified 300 hour TTC Restorative yoga teacher, I am thrilled to be teaching classes for peri & post menopausal women and 1:1 for thyroid conditions. I am able to tune into others easily and quickly & know exactly what is needed to support them, as an empath and energy healer.
My experiences as a teenage girl, daughter, woman, mother, wife, divorced single mother & empty nester have been challenging & yet, have given me the experience to be able to help other women going through similar struggles. Everything happens for a reason & life is about learning & growing. I know, without a shadow of a doubt, that I have grown & evolved through my experiences, no matter how traumatic at the time, in order to be able to support other women.
Shine. Sparkle. Radiate
Combining my accomplishments as a teacher, coach, therapist, mentor and sacred space holder and my admiration for women everywhere, I launched SHINE. SPARKLE. RADIATE in 2017. I’ve quickly developed a strong base of repeat clients and have already run a number of highly recommended workshops and retreats near my home in Catalonia, SPAIN and in the UK. I took the bold step to leave teaching in June 2019 and became an International best-selling author as co-author of the Pay It Forward series: Notes to My Younger Self on March 8th 2019; International Women's day. I completed my restorative yoga teacher training in January 2020 and am offering 1:1 and small group classes for peri and post menopausal women and teen girls.
As I step out into my mission & embrace my path, I shine my light so others can too.
