Nicola’s Story…

My Background

In the final year of my undergraduate degree in accounting and finance, I had a single lecture on employee wellbeing…it was a powerful and unexpected turning point where I had a moment of clarity and realised this was what I wanted to pursue in my life.

I didn’t know what this might look like yet but I knew I wanted to learn everything I could about the topic so I went on to do a PhD in it (I sometimes joke that this ironically wasn’t great for my own wellbeing!).

Following my PhD, I worked in organisational culture consulting and in universities translating cutting edge research into something useful for organisations. I also trained as a workplace coach and loved working with leaders and managers using this skillset. work o

EFT Tapping

In my early 20s also discovered EFT Tapping and it quickly became my anchor - helping me stay clear-headed under pressure and navigate the challenges I was facing with confidence.

After years of regular personal practice, I decided to train and become an accredited practitioner so I could share this technique with others.

Setting Up My Business

In 2022, over a decade after first dedicating myself to the pursuit of workplace wellbeing, it finally felt like the right time to set up my business.

I called it Manera Coaching - ‘manera’ meaning ‘approach’ or ‘way’ in Spanish - because I’m bringing together various different strands to make a whole - my research background, coaching/consulting skills and of course, last but not least - the evidence-based approach of EFT Tapping.

Now, as an EFT Tapping Coach, I bring this tool to organisations and professionals, helping them enhance executive function, build resilience, and perform at their peak.
