About Nicoll

Nicoll Mishel is a professional coach, learning designer and community connector, fueled by curiosity and a passion for connection. A traveler at heart, I find joy in the subtle, everyday nuances that make each corner of the world unique—whether it's the rhythm of a local market or the way a letter arrives in another country. As a coach and facilitator, my work centers on empowering people — especially women — to embrace their fullest selves, guiding them to discover new paths of growth and expression. From my childhood in California and Mexico, to my experiences as a young woman traveling solo across the globe and searching for my path, I know how difficult it can be to break through our blocks, scripts and social constraints. While growth and healing aren’t linear, I’ve learned that powerful and joyful shifts can spring from facing fear. Based in Colorado with my fluffy dog Margo, I am constantly seeking new experiences, always open to the unexpected lessons the world has to offer.

Vision

I dream that Breaking Gravity will push the limits of our world, to create bolder, braver, more badass women out of all of us! So many of us women face barriers in our lives that feel insurmountable: whether it’s being burnt out, overlooked or discriminated against in our workplaces, or shouldering an emotional labor, suffering trauma and pain from the past, or not feeling worthy. We also face so much social pressure to be perfect.... You know the feeling!

Why Work With Me?

What drives me is the belief that learning is the key to growth, both personally and professionally. As a lifelong learner, my own life experiences show that powerful and joyful shifts can spring from facing fear.
I love and thrive on change. Change can be very scary for a lot of people, I find I crave it. I want it. I imagine a world where we don’t let fear be the barrier to change, and invite change into our lives for the better.

What I Offer...

Empathy & Action
I combine empathy with a results-driven mindset to create experiences that inspire people to think differently and take action. My hands-on approach ensures that I’m not just planning with you—I’m in the trenches helping you bring your vision to life. I have witnessed countless people, especially women, feeling unhappy in their careers and personal lives, burnt out, stuck, and not doing the things they love. I want to empower you to break through.
Globally-Minded & Solution-Driven
I bring a global perspective and a knack for navigating fast-paced environments. My work in political campaigns, nonprofits, tech companies, and startups has honed my ability to meet challenges head-on while delivering tangible results.
Inclusive & Bilingual in Spanish
My identity as a Mexican and Jewish woman has shaped my inclusive approach to coaching and facilitation. I understand that everyone has their own unique way of learning and contributing, and I ensure that every voice is heard. With fluency in both English and Spanish, I offer bilingual coaching and facilitation services that broaden my reach and impact.

Letter From Nicoll

Dear Bold Sister,
I’ll tell you a little about me…..I am an adventurer, compassion seeker, and community connector. I really believe that when women come together and change their lives together it makes the world a better place.
My first time skydiving was in New Zealand over Fox Glacier in the South Island. I loved the experience so much I went again a few days later over Lake Taupo in the North Island.
When I came back I was curious why there weren’t very many women skydiving instructors, and after a bit of research and conversations, I realized women hold back and often put up with barriers in our lives. After long deliberation, I decided I wanted to create an experience that would spark life lasting change for other women.
I came back with the mindset that anything can happen, we can do anything, even if it isn’t in our comfort zone. We often live too much in our comfort zone, and we don’t grow. When we have experiential learning opportunities to help us grow and be better, we can change. We walk the line between our comfort zone and our panic zone. If we really step in, and lean in, we will make change.
It might sound corny… but Skydiving shifted something deep inside me, it caused me to be more open minded, face challenges with ease, and have this relaxed, present attitude towards life. It lifted something within me which was transformative.
The feeling of adrenaline the first time I jumped, was a feeling I look back at often. I close my eyes and feel rooted back to that mindset. Living in a city can be exhausting and can start to feel claustrophobic or stressful. But when I close my eyes and step back into visualizing that experience of flying in the air, I re-embody that feeling of stillness and calm that came afterwards. That life is about having fun, adventure and living your best life. Achieving the things you want.
I want to create an experience for all women to feel that stillness. Not all of my clients will go skydiving, but I want to work with you to create your “Breaking Gravity Moment.” Whatever that means to you, through empowerment coaching sessions together we can design an experiential program for you to break through your scripts and barriers and live your full life.
My philosophy is that taking the first next step will lead to the next step, some call it emergent theory, but I just think it’s simple. Let’s take one next step and let it see where it leads us. You are not alone, I will be here supporting your journey.
I can't wait to grow with you and break gravity together. xoNicoll
