The Heart Behind The Nest

Hi, I'm Sheila

I'm glad you're here.

If you've found your way to NEST, perhaps you're navigating one of life's many transitions.

Perhaps you're living with Type 2 Diabetes.

Or perhaps you're simply longing for a different conversation about your health, your wellbeing, and your life.

Whatever brings you here...

Welcome.

For more than 30 years, I've cared for people as a Registered Nurse. It has been a privilege to walk alongside individuals and families through some of life's most vulnerable moments.

Throughout those years, I witnessed incredible advances in medicine. Yet I also saw something medicine alone couldn't always provide—a space to pause, to be heard, and to explore what it truly means to live well.

Then life invited me into that conversation personally.

Like many of the women I now support, I found myself navigating life with Type 2 Diabetes while balancing the many responsibilities and transitions that come with midlife.

That journey didn't simply change my health.

It changed the way I related to my body.

It changed the questions I began asking.

And ultimately...

It changed the way I coach.

My Greatest Teachers

While being a Registered Nurse shaped my profession and coaching shaped my practice...

Motherhood shaped my heart.

My three children have been my greatest teachers.

Through them I've learned about unconditional love, courage, patience, letting go, trust, and the beautiful reality that growth happens through relationship.

They've reminded me that people don't need fixing.

They need to be seen.

To be heard.

To be believed in.

Every day, they continue to teach me what it means to listen deeply, love generously, and stay curious.

Those lessons live at the heart of every coaching conversation I have.

How I Coach....

NEST is a one-to-one coaching practice rooted in partnership.

Together, we'll explore what matters most to you as you reconnect with your body's intelligence, relate differently to yourself and the season of life you're in, and redesign a way of living that supports your health and wellbeing.

Our work is whole-person and body-oriented, integrating evidence-informed coaching with somatic practices. Depending on your goals and interests, we may also draw upon Human Design, breathwork, mindfulness, and other reflective approaches to deepen awareness and support meaningful change.

Every partnership is unique.

Because every woman is unique.

Some of the things that bring me joy

Learning something new
Enjoying a quiet cup of coffee

I'd love to meet you

If something in my story resonates with yours...

I'd love to begin a different conversation with you.

Whether you're navigating Type 2 Diabetes, the transitions of midlife, or simply longing for a new way of relating to yourself...

You're warmly invited to book a NEST Conversation.

It would be a privilege to meet you.

People don't need fixing. They need to be seen, heard, and supported as they rediscover the wisdom that's already within them."

Sheila, The NEST

The Foundation of My Practice

My work is grounded in more than three decades of experience in healthcare and a commitment to lifelong learning.

I bring together evidence-informed coaching, nursing, somatic practices, and whole-person wellbeing to support women navigating midlife while living with Type 2 Diabetes.

Credentials build competence. Relationships build transformation.

My qualifications provide the foundation for my work, but every coaching partnership is ultimately built on trust, curiosity, compassion, and presence.

My greatest qualification isn't found in a certificate.

It comes from walking this path myself-as a nurse, a woman living with Type2 Diabetes, a mother of three, and someone who continues to discover what it means to live in alignment with my own true nature.

Let's walk this path together

No woman should have to walk this path alone—let’s take the next step together
