Nicolette J. Nierras on The Coaching Corner with Dori DeCarlo

April 9, 2026·35 min·3 clips

Nicolette Nierras went from a successful chartered accountant at 28 to a holistic coach after a divorce and burnout reshaped her entire worldview.

The conversation begins with women being taken seriously. Dori presents Word of Mom as a place for mompreneurs and businesswomen who are doing the work, then brings Nicolette in through her move from accounting success into holistic healing. Nicolette does not make the shift sound tidy. She talks about divorce, corporate burnout, and a badly shaken sense of worth as the place she had to start from before she could help anyone else. That honesty carries the episode. Instead of selling transformation like a shiny promise, she explains why she first needed real conversations with other people and why she started a podcast named after a painful story she had carried. The title came from a wound. The phrase was part of a narrative she had repeated to herself for a long time, so the origin feels less like branding and more like getting through it. Then the layoff gives the story a push. Nicolette describes it as the strange turn that made her stop circling the work and step into it. Dori does not rush her. She follows the emotional thread into Rapid Transformational Therapy and asks what made it matter so much to Nicolette. The answer goes below the resume. Nicolette talks about subconscious reprogramming and looking for the root causes behind choices in love, work, and self-measurement. A career comment had landed hard. When someone said they would not show what she had done to CEOs, she took it as a verdict on herself, not only as a workplace judgment. That moment becomes the hinge. She starts seeing how much of her worth had been tied to outside approval, and why praise or rejection could feel so personal. RTT comes across as practical, not mystical. As part of her training, she spoke with other students through hypnosis and used real areas of struggle, including money beliefs shaped by childhood messages. Dori brings the conversation back to alignment. By the end, both women are sitting with the idea that the subconscious drives more than people notice, and that inner peace can change how the same life events feel. The tone stays gentle and lived in. It is a healing conversation, and also one about confidence, purpose, and doing the work after life has knocked the certainty out of you.
