We explored nervous system healing, cyclical embodiment, and what it meant to build in partnership with our capacity instead of against it.

We kept coming back to one another — on long Zoom calls, in messy voice notes, and in novel sized text threads. It was through these long, winding conversations — the kind that start with a question and end hours later in full-body resonance — that the roots of HELD began to take shape.

We weren’t just dreaming about a new way of doing business… We were living the questions in real time:
Can embodiment, leadership, devotion, and our own definition of wild success truly co-exist?
Can we hold space for others without abandoning ourselves?

The backbone of HELD was built from the exact practices we kept returning to, in moments of burnout, rupture, repair, and deep remembering.

This isn’t theory. It’s lived experience.
It’s what carried us through — and now it’s what we offer to you.

Somewhere in there, we hit record — and our podcast sub-series Musings & Magick was born.
We began to notice the magick of our connection — the way our energy fed off each other, how our different experiences, styles, and wisdom created something deeply alive and alchemical.

That essence is what makes HELD different.
We’re not offering a formula.
We’re offering a living, breathing space where you’re met in your fullness.
Where your body is honored.
Where your leadership is nourished.
Where the you behind your work is seen, supported, and celebrated.

Former nurse, forever birth nerd, lover of liminality and london fogs. Nicole is a late-identified neurodivergent mom, host of Rewild + Free and a business and life coach — but not in the conventional sense.
Nicole’s work lives below the surface. In the body. The breath. The unraveling, the remembering, the rewilding. The slow and sacred work of building a business that doesn’t extract from you but actually nourishes you. That honours your seasons. That centres joy, rest, community care, and real f*cking love.
Her work lives at the intersection of decolonized business, conscious creation, nervous system healing, and identity reclamation. Nicole brings a deeply intuitive and relational lens to business coaching — one that centres capacity, joy, and not just sustainable, but regenerative self-expression.

Mother, doula, matrescence educator, somatic practitioner and host of The Well-Nourished Mother podcast.
Lauren’s work lives where transformation meets tenderness — where the messy, magical becoming of motherhood meets the quiet rebellion of building a business that actually feels good to your nervous system.
With a background in caregiving, somatics, and trauma-informed facilitation, she guides both mothers and space holders to lead from embodiment, reconnect to their core values and intuition, and build meaningful work rooted in care — not performance.
She believes that how we hold ourselves is inseparable from how we hold others — and that reclaiming rest, rhythm, and relationship is a radical act.

We’re not here to teach you how to lead

We’re here to walk beside you while you lead in a way that’s deeply yours.
HELD isn’t about scaling at any cost.
It’s about rising rooted.
It’s about building something that feels like truth in your bones.
It’s about redefining success so it includes your wellbeing, your softness, your humanity.
Because you don’t need another certification...

You need to be held.
