Testimonials

I am happy to provide this testimonial for Nicole Brewer.

Nicole very kindly offered her services to me in her capacity as a Life Coach in December, 2014.

Since that time, I have had five of the six sessions that are to make up our commitment together.

During this time, I have been in a complete phase of transition and change both in my personal and professional life.  Having separated from my ten year marriage just weeks before the sessions began, I was in an extremely despondent position.  Having surrendered my own career to raise children, my separation meant that not only was I needing to adapt to extreme change whilst managing the welfare of myself and my children, but also I was needing to come to terms with the fact I would now be the primary bread-winner.

My reason for mentioning this is to give a context to the landscape Nicole was working in at the time of our sessions.  I was very raw, lacking self-esteem and completely lacking in direction.  I would probably go as far as saying she could not have had a much harder task to master as a trainee!

Despite all the many challenges and her newness to this particular modality of practice, Nicole helped me prioritise and understand the practicalities of my situation, drawing my attention to the positives and helping separate the emotion.

During the process of my separation, I had found it necessary to have professional counselling.  However, I can confidently say that my sessions with Nicole left me feeling more empowered, directed and supported than any of those sessions.  I found life coaching so much more proactive and relevant.

Nicole helped me put strategies in place really made a difference to my progress and security.  She has a way of being present and clear and drawing her client back to the core issues.  Nicole gave me praise and encouragement when I most needed it and she made anything and everything seem possible.  For this, I am eternally grateful.

I know Nicole will continue to inspire and enrich the lives of all those lucky enough to work with her.

Thank you Nic!

Nic helped me when I was faced with moving from Australia to Holland to be with my partner.

I was hesitant on wanting to leave Australia, due to having a good life there. I had a lot of changes ahead and really needed some assistance and perspective in sorting it all out.

Nic helped me get clear on my values, and asked questions that brought down the fear of me leaving Australia. She helped me explore and find answers to those questions that were rational and impartial, she really helped shape the decision I made!

If I was to give her a mark on the score card, it’d be 10/10 – she’s amazing!

Thanks, Nic!

To whom this may concern,

From the months of January to March 2014, Nicole Brewer provided me with life-coaching for a duration of 12 weeks.

Nicole’s passion and love for her work is undeniable which was immediately noticeable upon meeting her. Being a good listener, patience, empathy, enthusiasm & honesty are just some of the many qualities not only she possesses but also that you would expect from a good life-coach. One of the more subtle and beautiful attributes is her refreshing friendliness & engaging energy which makes it easy to open up and discuss about deeper life issues. Being in her presence, there’s never a moment of discomfort or the feeling of being judged. Nicole also has a persistent quality at seeking answers. If there’s an answer that escapes her, she will make sure she has an answer for you next time around.

The knowledge Nicole provided and the discussions we had during our sessions were ground breaking. Nicole possesses a natural way of opening a path to self-discovery and then provides you with tangible steps to implement personal change. For example, she helped me take steps into improving areas of my life that were previously very challenging such as self-confidence issues, assertiveness and organisational skills. She also provided gave me the techniques and the framework to set realistic goals that are in line with my personal values, which in turn, sets me in the right path for personal growth well into the future.

I’ve always left her sessions feeling more confident, more motivated and excited in anticipation of the next one.

It’s been a blessing having Nicole as a life-coach. Her guidance and coaching has provided me with life organisational methods & an approach that will stay with me forever. I would highly recommend Nicole Brewer to anyone who is in need of life-coaching or mentoring. She is natural leader that has the gift of uplifting people and helping them realise their true potential.

November 2013

Before I first signed up with Nicole Brewer for 10 sessions I thought I was doing okay. My life was on track and I felt I was managing just fine.
I viewed my sessions with Nic as a gift to myself, I entered into them with an open mind I want to see if there was anything that I could tweak or change in my life.

Little did I know that in 3 short months I would discover a life changing truth.

Let me back track a little. Due to an extremely strict upbringing, I have always felt I had to earn love. I had been, for years, trying to be good enough, perfect enough and special enough to deserve the love I received from my wonderful family and friends.

I so often would put myself under enormous pressure to be the perfect wife, mother, friend etc and it was exhausting!
During one session Nic asked me to look in a mirror and say ‘I love you,’ to myself. This simple task completely overwhelmed me. I felt like an idiot every time I tried it but, I wanted to grow so I kept at it. Then one night alone in my bathroom talking to myself in the mirror it dawned on me, I don’t need to be perfect to be loved!

This simple truth has changed my life!
I have gone from acknowledging that I am loved to accepting that I am loved and it feels amazing. I owe so much to Nic, without her patience and guidance I am sure I would not have made this discovery on my own.

Testimonials

What do others have to say?...

I am writing this testimonial to you Nic with great appreciation & I feel that what we have experienced over the past few months has enhanced my life on many levels.

You have shown me guidelines that I now use in my day to day life of which I am truly grateful for. These tools have given me a new drive in both my family and work life . I remember in one session how you helped me realise that I had actually built walls around myself in regards to my two boys,& I always thought I was approachable! That was such a shock but then I started to see it & since then have made steps forward to improve my connection with them both with great outcomes. The awareness is there now. I can feel that its enhancing my relationship with them both (even if things feel trying). I am making decisions know-ing that I am working with the best possible ‘Outcome’ in mind. You had a way that made it easy for me to arrive to.

When I’ve felt like things were just in the too hard basket – I would generally be too lazy to see them through and put things off or give up! You have shown me with just having an ‘Outcome’ put in place, it can give you a clearer understanding of what it is I am wanting to achieve. This has opened my eyes to cover more aspects in my life from relationships to business & learning to my own personal goals.

So thank you once again for your time, understanding & empathy. For your ability to keep me on track, fo-cused and encouragement to see things through. For having the ability to show me things aren’t always as ‘scary’ as we would have ourselves believe. You are fantastic at what you do.

With much respect to you and your future ahead,

Susan (Kingscliff, NSW)
