The Healthy Habits Coach

The Healthy Habits Coach My name is Nicola and I am a certified health coaching practitioner. Afterall, what do we really have without our health?

Health Coaching Practitioner | Empowering driven executives to optimize their daily habits and reclaim their energy levels for peak performance | Supporting organisations through workplace wellness initiatives I love working with busy mums who want to balance the demands of their careers & their role as mother, partner and homemaker with time for themselves, so that they can feel full of energy, r

each the weight they want and enjoy real self confidence again, without ever having to sacrifice eating well. You may be wondering when you last had time to really think about your own health goals since we tend to place ourselves at the bottom of our to do lists. Work with me and I will help you hit the weight you want, with energy levels to keep up with the kids, and sustainable healthy habits to get that glow back, inside and out.

Since January, I have intentionally stayed off social media.

As a health and habit coach, I talk a lot about the need to “rock the boat” first... to build an awareness of our behaviours, as a prerequisite to finding balance. This season, I decided to live that message. I stepped away from the digital noise to prioritize what truly matters: my young family, my creativity, my presence, and the work I do with my 1:1 clients.

The highlight of this “social sabbatical” was celebrating my 49th birthday at the end of March on the Pondo Trail in South Africa. 🇿🇦

Four days of trekking the rugged Wild Coast. Zero devices. Total presence. Laughter. Peace.

It was a powerful reminder that we don’t build healthy habits just to check a box—we build them so we are physically and mentally capable of taking on life’s great adventures. Whether it’s a multi-day trek or simply having the energy to show up for your family after a long workday, your “tank” needs to be refilled.

I am returning to my practice refreshed and ready to support you.

I am currently booking:
✨ One-to-One Coaching: 3 spots available for those ready to move from “running on empty” to vibrant energy.
✨ Corporate Pop-up Clinics: Helping teams navigate the constant juggle without the burnout.

This is why I do what I do! 💖

Getting feedback like this from a busy professional after a 1:1 session from my corporate pop up clinic, fills my cup. It hits on exactly what I strive to provide: a coaching experience that is both kind and empathetic, and delivers a clear, actionable plan.

I know the feeling of being drained and overwhelmed, trying to juggle work, family, and health. It’s why my approach is holistic—we look at the whole picture to build those sustainable habits that give you your energy and self confidence back.

As you can see in the full screenshot (slide 2), it’s my primary goal that you leave feeling listened to, refreshed, and clear on your next steps.

Are you ready to trade the overwhelm for clarity?

Why do we eat a “healthy” breakfast, only to feel hungry, tired, and foggy by 11 AM? We all know that feeling, and it sabotages your entire day.

In the latest eye-opening episode from ZOE, experts break down the science of why our current breakfast routines are broken—and how they set you up for a daily blood sugar rollercoaster. You’ll learn:

Why most common breakfast foods (muesli, protein marketed cereals, juicing, and many smoothies etc.) are secretly failing you.

The real psychology of why you’re stuck in a bad habit loop, and why willpower isn’t enough.

How long it really takes to form a new, lasting habit (no not 21 days!).

So many of us are taught to chase the “perfect” relationship, but this podcast with Dr. Chatterjee and Alain de Botton reminds us that true health includes embracing the beautiful messiness of human connection! Our relationships impact our health.

When we let go of perfectionism and idealism, and create space for the discomfort of the imperfect relationship, we are able to foster more genuine growth and for me, enjoy the true wealth this brings over the pursuit of so much of the material.

How many times have you said,

‘I just don’t have time right now,’
or
‘I’ve tried everything’?

The truth is, the problem isn’t your willpower or your motivation.

It’s the pressure that traditional health approaches put on you, expecting you to add more and more to an already full plate.

My core belief is that your health doesn’t need more pressure; it needs a sustainable system.

The Healthy Habits Blueprint is built different.

It’s about creating effortless change by understanding your unique daily habit patterns, applying practical tools (like ‘The Balanced Plate” from Week 2 of the Blueprint), and building a foundation that truly holds you.

Imagine consistent energy, mental clarity, and genuine self-compassion becoming your new normal.

This September, stop forcing and start flowing. DM ‘Effortless’ or tap the link in bio to learn how.

We often ‘should’ ourselves into exhaustion.

I should eat better.
I should sleep more.
I should exercise.

But the gap between ‘knowing’ and ‘doing’ is where true transformation happens.

The Healthy Habits Blueprint bridges that gap, providing not just information, but a system that empowers you to integrate sustainable health practices into your already full life.

From understanding your unique habit triggers to practical tools for nourishing meals and restorative sleep, this course is designed for real people with real lives. It’s about building a foundation of resilience so you can truly thrive in the chaos.

Next intake starts September 8th!

We chase promotions, meet deadlines, and juggle family life, often believing ‘tired’ is just the price of ambition. But what if that constant hum of exhaustion, brain fog, and restless nights isn’t just ‘normal’? What if it’s an ‘unseen tax’ on your very vitality? You’re giving your all to your career and your loved ones, but your personal energy account is in constant overdraft. This week, let’s pull back the curtain on the subtle, often ignored ways our demanding schedules create an energy deficit. It’s not about working less; it’s about reclaiming the energy you deserve. Double-tap if this resonates with you!

“It’s true that the world often glorifies “busy” and the idea of “having it all.” But what if chasing everything just leaves you feeling perpetually exhausted, on the edge of burnout, and disconnected from what truly matters? You know something needs to change, but you somehow avoid getting to it as you conveniently put yourself at the bottom of your to do list.

If you’ve ever felt that tension—the hidden cost of ambition and external success—then this post is for you.

On September 8th, I’m launching my next Healthy Habits Blueprint intake, which is all about making small, gentle shifts that lead to better health, more energy, and a restored sense of genuine well-being. This isn’t about doing it all at once; it’s about a sustainable, overhwhelm-free path to feeling your best again.

Ready to start a new, gentler journey?
