I know firsthand how challenging and disorienting a career transition from a so-called “safe, high-paying” job can be. I’ve been there: the uncertainty, the endless “where to go next,” the “what’s right for me,” the second-guessing, “Should I really do this? Maybe I should just stay a bit longer?” I also know how brutal today’s AI-infused job market can feel. I’ve been there too: the rejections, the silence, the impersonality, the frustration, the doubts, “Will I ever land the right role?” “What’s wrong with my CV?” “Maybe I’m just not qualified enough?” But here’s the truth: the business world is tough and challenges will always be part of it. None of us are exempt. Sooner or later, everyone arrives at a crossroads where the old definitions of success no longer feel complete. For me, that moment came after years in the high-intensity world of Bain, advising top companies on innovation and organizational transformation. It was a career I valued and learned immensely from, yet I realized I wanted more than another promotion. I wanted a path that felt aligned with who I am and what I value. Redefining success wasn’t about walking away from business, it was about expanding it, reshaping my life and career on my own terms. Now, I help professionals at their own inflection points design careers rooted in purpose and passion. My approach goes beyond job titles or the “next right move.” It’s about working holistically: creating clarity and strategy for your next chapter, while also building the resilience, self-awareness, and presence to thrive in the face of uncertainty. Because real success isn’t just about getting the next or the right job, it’s about becoming the kind of person who can navigate challenges with confidence and continue to grow long after this. 🚀 How I Can Help You: ✔ Get crystal clear on what’s next: No more spinning in circles. We’ll map out your direction with purpose, whether that’s a bold career pivot or a smarter next step. ✔ Turn uncertainty into growth opportunities and action: Feel stuck or overwhelmed? I’ll help you break it down, reframe it, and move forward with clarity and momentum. ✔ Craft a narrative that opens doors: Together, we’ll refine your story so it resonates - on paper, in interviews, and in rooms that matter. ✔ Align your career with who you really are: Not just what looks good on LinkedIn. We’ll reconnect with your values, strengths, and purpose to build something truly fulfilling. ✔ Strengthen your leadership from the inside out: Learn to lead with presence, emotional intelligence, and resilience - even in high-stakes environments. ✔ Build balance into your ambition: You don’t have to choose between performance and peace. I’ll show you how to have both (incl. mindfulness techniques that work in business) ✔ Have a real, honest space to figure it out: No judgment. Just grounded, strategic, human guidance from someone who’s walked the path.

About Nick
I didn’t grow up with a map to the corporate world. No connections, no mentors, just grit. That path took me to top universities, then Bain & Company, where I became Manager in under four years. On paper, I had it all. In reality, I was asking: is this it? That question led me to leave the fast track, train as a coach at iPEC, earn my ICF certification (100+ hours, 75+ paid), and become a meditation teacher with Tergar.org. Coaching and mindfulness aren’t buzzwords for me; they are how I help people build clarity, resilience, and intentional action. I know what it feels like to doubt your path, question your choices, and wonder if there is more out there. I know how it feels to be stressed and overwhelmed, drowning in responsibilities, facing challenges that seem impossible to overcome. These are the realities of modern life and a brutal job market. But I also know how to turn those moments into growth: building confidence, balance, and a renewed sense of purpose. If you’ve checked all the boxes of success but still feel something is missing, I’ve been there. If you’re navigating a major professional challenge and don’t know what’s next, I’ve been there. If you want to find balance without losing your drive, I’ve been there too. And I’d be honored to walk with you as you figure out what comes next.
Why do I coach?
✔️ It Transformed Me Coaching has been the catalyst for my own transformation. Over three years of personal coaching has not only unlocked my potential but also showed me how powerful these tools are in creating lasting change. I know firsthand how coaching can guide someone to shift their mindset, overcome obstacles, find purpose and become truly resilient towards whatever life throws at us. That’s why I’m so passionate about it, because I’ve lived it. ✔️ It’s My Passion Coaching doesn’t feel like work to me, it’s where my heart and energy flow naturally. Helping others uncover their true potential, navigate life’s transitions, and align with their purpose, is what lights me up. It’s not just a career; it’s my calling. Seeing clients achieve breakthroughs and live more intentional lives is what keeps me motivated every day. ✔️ I’ve Been There I understand the struggle because I’ve lived it. I’ve followed the "success path", excelling in a prestigious career, but still feeling something was missing. I know the self-doubt, fear, and uncertainty that comes with making big decisions or stepping into the unknown. But I also know how to turn those feelings into a powerful catalyst for change. I’ve been where you are and I’ve come through stronger - and I’m here to help you do the same.
