"I’d like to share about my experience at the Empower and Elevate Retreat. Sacred Grove is just the most magical place I know, and the retreat begins there in that amazing energy. Ellen and Nicole are super energetic, fun and creative. These intuitive, skilled coaches have put together a retreat where I immediately felt comfortable and at ease. There was just the right amount of meditation, exercises and downtime designed to create reflection, growth and new perspectives. The other women and I quickly connected on a deeply intimate level through sharing, preparing meals together and activities. I left the retreat feeling a real sense of peace. I was able to look at some things in my life and see new possibilities for my life. Life is ever changing, and I can’t always see things clearly on my own. I am looking forward to the next time I’m able to attend this retreat."⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nicole Mitchell Intuitive Tarot Card Reader and Life Coach

Meet your coaches

Nicole Mitchell

Nicole's journey from a quaint upbringing in Hamilton, Massachusetts, to becoming the owner of Rise With Me Tarot and Coaching is a tale of resilience, discovery, and spiritual awakening. Growing up in a small town, she carried the simplicity and roundness of her roots into her adult life. After completing her college education, Nicole remained in Massachusetts, embedding herself in the familiar until an opportunity beckoned her to the vibrant landscapes of North Carolina. Here, she seamlessly transitioned into the dentistry field, a profession she was well-versed in, yet felt an underlying quest for a deeper purpose.

 

Throughout her years in North Carolina, Nicole dabbled in various creative outlets—from crafting jewelry and refinishing furniture to vocalizing melodies with a band. Despite these endeavors, a sense of fulfillment eluded her until a profound spiritual awakening, stemming from personal frustration and anxiety, steered her onto a path of self-discovery. This pivotal moment unlocked her intuitive capabilities, guiding her to explore tarot reading initially for friends and family.

Nicole's serendipitous encounter with Ellen at Sacred Grove propelled her journey forward. Ellen introduced her to the transformative Gratitude training program, which instilled in Nicole the confidence and leadership skills essential for entrepreneurship. Thus, Rise With Me Tarot and Coaching was conceived—a platform that melds intuitive insights with empowering coaching techniques. Nicole's venture into this domain has since allowed her to touch the lives of hundreds, offering personalized readings and coaching through one-on-one sessions, group classes, and workshops.

 

Through her work, Nicole aspires to inspire and guide others on their path to self-discovery and fulfillment, embodying the essence of her spiritual and entrepreneurial journey.
