These exercises helped me cultivate greater presence and fully engage in the coaching process, allowing me to show up authentically for myself. Nicole’s guidance and encouragement were pivotal in helping me achieve my goals, and I am deeply grateful for her support throughout our time together.

“Nicole’s calm, grounded presence created a safe space for honesty, clarity, and transformation.”
Working with Nicole was incredible. She gave me the space to process more deeply than I usually allow myself, and I always felt safe being fully honest in our sessions. Nicole listened with genuine presence and had a unique way of reflecting my words back to me—often helping me hear myself more clearly and shift my perspective in the process.
She has such a calm, grounded energy and a kind, welcoming presence that immediately put me at ease. I felt completely accepted, never judged, and really supported from the very beginning. Nicole is articulate, thoughtful, and clearly knows what she’s doing—she brings a level of professionalism and clarity that made each session feel intentional and impactful.
Her coaching style is supportive and open, and even when I didn’t follow through on every goal I had set, I always walked away with something valuable—clarity, insight, or a helpful reframe that stuck with me.
If you’re someone who needs to feel deeply heard—or who’s craving space to reflect and get unstuck—Nicole is the real deal. I’d recommend her to anyone ready to grow.

“Her calm and individualized approach empowered me to make meaningful progress toward my goals.”
Nicole is a great listener with the ability to determine where I was professionally, spiritually, physically, and emotionally and create a strategy to achieve my goals. She began each coaching session with a mindfulness exercise and guided the discussion with a flow that empowered me to be involved and provided the appropriate amount of guidance. She sent a comprehensive coaching reflections follow-up after each session to summarize key points and areas that I wanted to work on between sessions. The time spent together and communications between sessions were individualized to fit me and my goals.
Nicole has a calm, welcoming, graceful demeanor that put me at ease and made me feel comfortable to share and discuss difficult topics. She exceeded my expectations of how nurse coaching can assist, empower, and motivate me to understand my current status and the ability to progress and accomplish goals regarding my health and well-being. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone who is looking for a nurse coach who is caring, patient, and competent.

“Nicole encouraged me to take faith-filled steps toward healthy living and to honor God in the process.”
"Prior to beginning the coaching sessions, I had been wanting to make changes to my diet that were more consistently healthy. While I’d like to lose weight, I also want to honor God in the process. You gave me the encouragement to take this step of faith, pointing out that even baby steps, over time, will get me closer to that goal than if I continued to do nothing. You also helped me to hone in on my motivation to this: to show love for God and to truly honor and glorify him in the process.
You are so kind and uplifting. You are very personable, and you found ways to encourage me in every step of the journey, even in the times when there were setbacks. Your approach is very personalized, not a formula, and you gave of yourself, sharing some of your own vulnerabilities, challenges, and victories.
Prior to beginning this journey, I had a lot of thoughts on areas of my life that were not well. In those thoughts, I had considered making steps that could facilitate wellness but felt stuck or unmotivated to make them. As a result of our time together, now I feel more empowered to make steps toward healthy living, to celebrate and even embrace baby steps.
I would recommend your coaching to anyone who shares their challenges with me and are seeking to find a path toward resolution."

“Nicole helped me find clarity, compassion, and focus during a season of growth and transition.”
"Prior to working with Nicole, I was in a place of both growth and loss- facing a new career and also processing divorce. Yet the common thread of my soul within all these external experiences, was in need of a renewed way of care, kindness and focus. She had a deep understanding of my place and needs, I really felt seen and accepted in our sessions. In addition, I received great support, encouragement and fresh perspectives. I was able to have greater clarity in key areas of my life and identify realistic steps to meet important needs for myself and family. Also, I found some wonderful local resources and great tools through our work that’s adding such great value to my life.
I greatly appreciate Nicole’s personal touch and background with Nurse Coaching, she’s very attentive and has such a kind heart. I would highly recommend her services to care providers as well as to anyone looking for support in their personal journey for self-care and wellness."

“Nicole is definitely walking out her calling on her life, and I feel so grateful that God connected us.”
"Testimonial for Nicole Mueller, Nurse Coach Extraordinaire
The story of how Nicole and I connected is remarkable and how God connected us. We both were exploring the International Christian Coaches Institution (ICCI) and Nicole posted on the blog that she needed pro bono clients to complete her training in the Nurse Coach Collective . I had went through the same program and I wanted to help and also get coached.
We connected on several levels and she was warm , a great listener, and conversation was inviting and inspiring. Nicole proceeded to give her time to educate me, pray with me, and help me develop the early steps of setting up my own Nurse Coach practice /Non-Profit. I found a lot of support and encouragement as she cheered me on each week. Her follow- up was consistent and she shared many resources with me and knowledge as she was also developing /establishing her Nurse Coach business.
Nicole is definitely walking out her calling on her life and I feel so grateful that God connected us. She is a great Nurse Coach, colleague, and friend! Cant thank you enough Nicole for all of your coaching.

“Nicole’s compassionate coaching helped me regain focus, motivation, and confidence in my holistic wellness journey.”
"Before I started coaching with Nicole, I was feeling somewhat overwhelmed, sensing a lack of motivation. As a nurse, I was finding it more and more difficult to prioritize the important areas of my life for my own holistic well-being.
Nicole's compassionate and genuine approach along with her coaching method of creating time, space and freedom, allowed me to work through some of the challenges I was facing. Nicole assisted me in coming up with an individualized action plan, while providing the necessary encouragement I needed to gain insight into some of the barriers I had been facing, which brought life changing breakthrough in my personal life, health/wellness and business goals.
My experience in working with Nicole was authentic and invigorating! She encouraged me along in my faith, as we shared real stories and I was challenged in the key areas of faith, relationships, health and wellness and business goals. As a result of this coaching experience, I have regained my focus, clarity, motivation, and confidence I need to succeed in my journey to holistic health and wellness, once again.
I would highly recommend Nicole's coaching method for anyone feeling unsure, stuck, discouraged, unmotivated or overwhelmed on their journey to health and wellness. Invest in yourself, and you will never regret it!"

“Nicole helped me grow spiritually and return to a daily walk with God through prayer and mindfulness.”
"Before Nicole and I started working together, I was considering signing up for the Nurse Coaching program. At the same time I was dealing with some ongoing challenges in my daily life. Also, my eating habits and health routines were not as healthy as they should be.
What I valued most about working with Nicole, was her ability to incorporate Christian principles and prayer into her practice. She used scripture verses and prayer during deep breathing/mindfulness exercises, which I really appreciated, and which I intend to continue using. Nicole also used a level of deep listening combined with asking questions to help guide me into discovering my own insights/answers.
I can say that I experienced a new level of spiritual mindfulness, opening up a deeper level of communication with God, as Nicole encouraged me to return to daily Bible reading and meditation on God's Word. She also graciously shared inspirational messages and scripture with me upon my request, to help me overcome some obstacles I was dealing with. Also, with Nicole's encouragement, I began my own Nurse Coaching journey, and by the time of our last session together, I was actually beginning to practice with a peer coach that I was paired with through the Nurse Coach Collective.
After completing coaching sessions with Nicole, I now have a plan in place to continue drawing closer to God through daily meditation on His Word, and to continue working toward healthier eating and exercising on a more consistent basis. I have experienced the difference that small changes make over time, and I have learned to extend grace to myself, as much as I do to others.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Nicole's coaching to friends, family, colleagues, and anyone else who wants to improve their own self-care!"

“Through faith-based nurse coaching, I found healing, hope, and renewed joy after trauma and loss.”
"Hello my name is Fran and I just completed the nurse coaching with Nicole and it was incredible. Prior to this program, my life was in a state of chaos and trauma. I had gone through a surprise separation and divorce; infidelity was the catalyst for the ending of my marriage. If that was not hard enough, I had major health issues and almost died in the Spring. To say my mental state was not the best is an understatement. Nurse coaching was a God sent blessing into my life.
I was at a very low state of being and my self esteem was in the toilet, so to speak. Nicole and nurse coaching helped me so immensely. I was able to reflect on my past, present and take meaningful steps towards the future. I was provided with many tools and resources that guided me to dive into my life and self. My nurse coaching journey was faith based at my request and God remained the center in our discussions. Through God and the process of nurse coaching, I greatly improved my mindset and quality of life.
Nicole was the most understanding, caring, and informative nurse coach. We deeply explored issues that I felt I needed to be address in my life and I set goals each week around those areas. I was eager to learn and grow, so she provided me with homework and scripture to explore. The mindfulness exercises, daily prayer, scripture and devotions helped to bring my mind, heart, body and soul into harmony.
I would recommend this program to anyone. I would even repeat it if needed. I’m 100% better than when we began this road to wellness or wholeness. This has been one of the most memorable experiences I’ve ever had. My life is complete with love, joy, and happiness. My self-esteem has never been better and my relationship with God has increased. Everyone could benefit from nurse coaching. I highly recommend it."

“Through Nicole’s coaching, I found healing, forgiveness, and meaningful personal, spiritual, and physical growth.”
I can’t thank you enough, Nicole, for our coaching sessions and all that I’ve been able to accomplish through your guidance, motivation, and support. I have grown so much in such a small amount of time — not only personally but professionally as well.
Through your coaching, I’ve come to understand that forgiveness is not only an act of obedience to God but also a powerful step toward healing in many areas of my life. One of my biggest breakthroughs has been beginning to heal from the pain surrounding my sister’s words when our mother went into hospice: “Her death is nothing more than a business transaction to me.”
With your help, I was able to take that deep hurt and, through goal setting, break it down into smaller, more manageable steps. That process led me to write a letter that I’ll be mailing in just a few days — after her birthday, which I was even able to acknowledge with a simple text message. That alone is huge progress. I’ve also begun forgiving others who have hurt me in the past, including my ex-husband, and even shared my journey of forgiveness in my professional life.
In addition to the emotional and spiritual growth, I’ve also experienced physical transformation — losing 20 pounds along the way! Your encouragement to maintain a healthy work/life balance, focus on my protein intake, and stay consistent with my medication and health routines helped me set meaningful SMART goals that truly supported change.
You always came to our sessions 100% prepared and focused. Even when I felt like the conversation was going off the beaten path, you stayed fully present and flowed with the topic effortlessly. Your listening skills and motivational interviewing are right on point.
Thank you again for everything — for being that steady support, that gentle push, and that light helping me move forward. I can’t wait to see the incredible growth you achieve as a nurse coach and through your business.

“My coaching sessions with Nicole were beyond empowering — the reset I’d been hoping for, bringing real, sustainable results rooted in God’s word.”
On the cusp of a busy season, I had a need to stay anchored to pursue a healthy routine to minimize and manage inflammation, pain, stress and depression. I was in rut waiting for resolutions to address a chronic condition and was growing discouraged. I was in a fight for joy and was lacking encouragement specifically towards my health goals. My mindset had been so cynical and complacent. My coaching sessions with Nicole was beyond empowering and was the reset I'd been hoping for! I looked forward to each of our sessions and thrilled to share how all her suggestions paired with God's word, my goals had been satisfied in bringing real and sustainable results! What I valued most about our time together was how we began and concluded each with prayer/mindfulness meditations and the treasure of resources she shared, bringing thoughtful modifications to help me to succeed and overcome some defaults that didn't serve me. Nicole, met me and my goals with wisdom and enthusiasm which was infectious as family and friends took notice of these lifestyle changes and wanted to join in! I was able to implement new diet and exercise routine which allowed me to shed a few lbs., eliminate cravings, stay active, and stay in tune with my body all while enjoying and establishing a new rhythm in my day to day! If you are needing a reset with practical and sustainable guidance and are serious to cast off all that entangles real growth in your life, reach out to Nicole! Her passion will meet you exactly where you are and before long find yourself in a mindset transformed with peace and Godly-courage to face whatever challenges find you.
