Unveiled Stories | Nicole Hind
Unveiled Stories is a place for Struggling Couples, Over-Thinkers, and Anyone who wants freedom from stuck places.
I’m Nicole Hind, founder of Unveiled Stories. I’m an Australian life and relationship coach with a counselling background.
All my life I was told I was too much. Too loud, too opinionated, too bold. Things girls weren’t praised for. But I learned (the hard way) that shrinking didn’t bring me peace. It was in claiming myself and allowing myself to grow, struggle, change, take chances, do stuff outside-the-box, and BE, that I found direction and unexpected joy. That’s when the real opportunities in love, work, and life started to find me.
I work with folks who feel stuck — emotionally, creatively, in work, romantically or existentially. Maybe you’re a couple in a relationship that’s lost it’s spark. Maybe you’ve hit a wall in your career and can’t stop second-guessing your choices. Or maybe something just feels off. I’ve been there, believe me. A combo of work experience, training, and life experience has led me to help others find clarity, confidence and momentum on the other side of stuckness.
I say it like I see it with warmth, kindness, occasional swears, and a deep belief in your ability to be your most amazing self. I’ve been told by clients that I’m able to hone in on what’s what’s really going on, and what’s most important when they don’t even know themselves.
I’ve helped scientists, writers, activists, CEO’s, teachers, parents, musicians, engineers, IT specialists, entrepreneurs, physiotherapists, landscape gardeners, designers, therapists, and many other folks skyrocket in confidence, expand their sense of what’s possible, find love, get jobs they actually enjoy, chase their dreams, and feel excited about their relationships again.
It’s my passion to help people re-ignite their lives and relationships.
Above all, I believe in people. I believe in their strength, their capacity to grow, change, and fall in love with life again.
I believe in you.
I’ve been working with people my entire life
And with decades of experience, there’s so much I’ve learned (and had to unlearn) to be able to offer my services.
Receiving my Masters in Narrative Therapy at Melbourne University in 2014
I began my career at 19 as a volunteer counsellor for Lifeline, before doing a Bachelor of Social Science at Southern Cross University. I went on to earn a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling at La Trobe University, and then a Masters in Narrative Therapy at Melbourne University.
I’ve worked in-person as a counsellor, and community worker all across Australia—and the globe. Moving from regional towns such as Wagga Wagga, Bellingen and Coffs Harbour in NSW, to Darwin and in the Northern Territory, to cities like Australia’s capital Canberra, Melbourne in Victoria, as well as Bristol in the United Kingdom, Galway and Dublin in Ireland.
Since 2015 I’ve been based solely online as a digital nomad, online coach and counsellor, and appreciate the huge diversity of clients I now get to support from all over the world. I’m currently living in South East Asia, a wonderful, vibrant part of the world and a huge privilege.
My Style
I work with:
- Individuals who want to make positive, meaningful changes in their behaviour, choices and life direction
- Folks who are ready to stop people-pleasing, overthinking or staying small
- Couples (including LGBTIQ+, non-monogamous, cross-cultural, disabled, neurodiverse) who want more than communication tips. They want to truly understand one another, deepen connection, and build the groundwork for long-lasting change
- Anyone craving more clarity, confidence, better boundaries, deeper love, higher self-worth, easier connections, or more meaning in their life.
I offer sessions via video, talk without video, chat or email so you can show up in the way that feels most best. No need for small talk or awkward waiting rooms. You get to build a stronger sense of safety and comfort in the place you spend the the most time: your own home.
My approach is:
- Direct but compassionate (more than once I’ve been told this is what my clients like best about me)
- Values-led and grounded
- Sometimes challenging, but always respectful of where you’re at
- Informed by narrative therapy, which is a non-blaming, respectful approach to personal and relationship work. We believe that people are not problems — problems are problems. When you truly understand the problems invading your life as outside of yourself (rather than who you — or your partner — ‘are’), it’s so much easier to find a way past them. Narrative therapists work collaboratively with you to define problems and find solutions in your own words by asking REAL questions (that neither you nor I have immediate answers to). We believe your voice, your skills and your sense of agency is crucial so we can short-circuit problems and make sustainable changes.
Who is Nicole Hind?
Talking to a new coach or counsellor can be scary – so let me break the ice with some fun facts.
6 Mini-Stories About Me…
1. Gardening brings me joy. Even when i’m travelling I can’t help myself and always end up with some herbs on the counter or a fern on the porch.
2. I have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a hormonal and endocrine disorder that causes irregular and troublesome periods, hirsutism, weight and health struggles, exacerbates mental health issues, and is often misunderstood by the medical community.
3. To me, pets are family. I love dogs, and still miss my beautiful girl, Ella, who sadly
died some years ago. Now that I’m location independent, pets aren’t right for me at the moment, but I adore them—and I understand the grief of losing them.
4. I love live music, across many genres.
5. I’m bisexual, so I get some of the struggles of working through sexuality in a heteronormative world.
6. As a ‘digital nomad’ (NB: restless itinerant), I’ve lived and travelled all over the world – to 28 countries (and counting). Some of them numerous times. So I’m very familiar with change, and appreciate some of the challenges expat and immigrant life can bring.
