"I booked a 1-to-1 coaching session with Nicola to discuss a sewing course I'm developing (I'm a one-woman small creative business). She's really professional, friendly and dead easy to talk to. The session was incredibly helpful, and we got right down to the specifics of pricing, publicity, and future plans as they apply to my own business. She's so good at..." Read more
