ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Nicole B, a Brooklyn, NY based AFPA-Certified Holistic Health Coach, and my passion is helping ambitious women who are juggling demanding careers, busy families, and personal commitments improve their health and well-being through personalized nutrition coaching.

This passion stems from my own experience. I’ll never forget when my former Primary Care Physician told me in my early 20s that I should start working out because "you won't have that body forever". While I was taken aback by her delivery, it also inspired me. I started out slow and was hooked once I saw how my body transformed and more importantly, how amazing I felt.

Shortly after, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids and when I researched what encouraged their growth, another piece of the puzzle fell into place. My doctors didn’t have any answers, but once I dug for more information, I uncovered that diet, stress and environmental toxins were possible culprits. This encouraged a major shift in my lifestyle and habits. I switched to a plant-based diet and stopped relaxing my hair after researching the link between hair relaxers and fibroids.

Working in corporate America put me under a significant amount of stress over the years. Dealing with microagressions, sexism, and a host of other structural issues had negative effects on my health. This along with a great deal of family stress moved me to enlist the help of a therapist. I learned numerous ways to combat anxiety and manage my stress levels, and yet another piece of the puzzle clicked into place.

I have found diet, exercise and stress management to be a powerful combination in overcoming my health and wellness struggles. And this sparked a passion to become a coach and help others improve their health through dietary and lifestyle changes. The past couple of years amplified the need for this work as various communities were ravaged by COVID-19, among other diseases that were already prevalent in the population, and I want to do what I can to inspire and support those in need.
