I've been working with Melanie for 18 months. She has helped me to make some radical changes in my…read morelife in a very positive way! When we started working together I was feeling miserable in my job and felt like I needed a big change! I worked with her one-on-one for sometime, and also did her year long professional wild woman program. What I liked most is the way that Melanie challenged me to dig deeper and get below the surface of some of my issues. What I struggled with most was just being unhappy in my job. She helped me envision what life would look like doing a number of different things and supported me as I explored them. The biggest thing that I got out of our time working together was that I had everything I needed right now, that I didn't need to make a big life altering change and do something really radical like quit my job and move to South America, but that I just needed to find joy and happiness exactly where I am today. For many years I've said I'll be happy when this happens or when that happens things will be better. But by doing the hard work with Melanie and the other women in our tribe I've come to believe that I am perfect just the way I am. My life is perfect, with all of the great times and Soso times, just the way it is! I live a fantastic life, and my attitude has changed, I have never been happier! I've quit looking for ways to fill me up from the outside, and have learned mindfulness, self-care squared, and to find joy in the every day. I've been searching for years. The time spent with Melanie and the tribe was worth my investment x 100. She is a great coach and I will be forever grateful.

OK, so I am a pretty educated human being. Business graduate from USC, got my head on straight, a…read morepretty good idea of what I want in life, no REAL need for a life coach... or so I thought. Within our first discussion, I knew that we were having more than just a conversation. It was as if she was peeking deep inside of me to gently expose and address fears, and I don't even think she knows she's doing it. She's so positive that she makes looking at life differently VERY easy. Takes the sting out of scary situations, like leaving your job (among many other things). I find the conversations themselves are very healing, let alone the guidance that accompanies them. I highly recommend at least a conversation with her. She really knows how to view "tough" situations and would be a great asset to anyone with whom she comes into contact.

Like a soul ninja, she effortlessly & painlessly cuts through the "story" and teaches us how to allow our light to come shining through. Working with her is an exceptional gift that will transform your life, open your heart and set you free. I cannot say enough what a blessing Nicola is. We are so lucky to have her and this world is brighter because of the beautiful work she does.

Nicola's supportive presence created a safe space to explore the root of my unhealthy relationship with money. With her caring nature and authentic reflection she assisted me in dropping the barrior that was blocking the natural flow of allowing myself to receive. Before my session with Nicola I was unaware of how much energy I was using to push money away from me. During our session I instantaneously experienced a level of relaxation and appreciation for money I had never felt before. And the next day I even experienced finding money I had "forgotten" about in random places around my home. I know that it was because the barrior I previously had towards money had been dismantled and I was finally able to receive.

Whose life is it anyway?

I came to coaching wanting to find more ease in my relationship to growth and facilitating positive…read morechange in my life. I have had a relationship of being self-critical and expecting perfection from myself in all areas of my life. This often leads to swinging between pushing myself to be as productive as possible and subsequently becoming exhausted and unable to accomplish all that I had set out to do. This led to frustration and doubt in my ability to be of service to the values that I held dear including being kind, compassionate and cultivating present centered awareness. When I started coaching I quickly realized that I couldn't do everything all of the time and Todd helped me to discover a way of prioritizing and taking action in a part of my life that felt alive to me in the moment and to allow the other areas to take care of themselves without trying too hard and expending too much energy with unfulfilled promises. Another great realization that I had during our time together was learning how to speak over my doubting and self-judgmental voices without suppressing them or letting them "run the show". I've found myself having fewer times when I am lost in confusion and unable to make decisions because I am able to practice being decisive in smaller areas of my life, like deciding what to eat from a dinner menu. When I practice what it's like to shift from being confused to being decisive in these easier decisions, then it becomes easier to make that shift with bigger decisions, like making career changes. One of the things that I really enjoyed about Todd was his ability to honor my life perspective and the tools and philosophies that I have accepted as guiding factors for my life. He wasn't trying to fit me into a box and telling me what I "had to believe in" in order to have success. Todd accepted the framework that is part of my unique path, which for me is strongly influenced by Buddhism. When Todd would introduce new concepts or theories around growth or consciousness, it was always done without the expectation that I need to accept this new way of thinking about the world. I felt at ease and accepted by this way that he held our time together. Overall I would recommend Todd to anyone who is looking for an authentic, down to earth coach who can help to shift the perspective that you hold on life to be empowering and satisfying.

He is empathetic, gentle, respectful, and great at holding space. I have 7 friends who have been coached by Todd, and we all agree that he is amazing at creating an invitation to explore possibility. He is known for his imagination-rich approach of inviting people to "play in the light!" This means that Todd establishes a safe, relaxed, upbeat environment that frees his clients to imagine possibility in brand new ways. As a result of my sessions with Todd, I have frequently come away with fresh new perspectives about issues in which I originally felt stuck. You will thank yourself for giving yourself the gift of working with Todd. Thank you, Todd, for helping me to dance in the light!
