Exhausted From Pretending? Discover How to Unmask Safely — Without Burning Out
FREE 1 hour workshop
Stop trying to be everything for everyone. Discover the first steps to unmasking safely, without losing yourself in the process.
If you’ve ever thought:
-
“I’m more exhausted than I should be.”
-
“I don’t even know who the real me is anymore.”
-
“I want to unmask, but I’m scared of what might happen…”
…then this workshop is for you.
You're not doing too much - you're doing too much WHILE pretending to be someone else. Masking is one of the biggest drains on your energy, your confidence, and your health. But here’s the truth- you don’t have to drop the mask all at once. There’s a safer way - a three step process that lets you start small, at your own pace, and build trust with yourself along the way.

The Seek. Shift. Shine.™ Methodology
The Three Steps to Unmasking Safely

Understand why the mask exists.
- where it began, how it shows up, and what it’s costing you. So you can start making your own choices over when to wear it and when to lose it.

Release what no longer serves you.
Challenge outdated beliefs and rewrite the stories that were never yours that are keeping you stuck. So you can stop performing for others and start showing up in ways that 'just feel right'.

Step into unapologetic brilliance.
Take back a life that honours your needs, your energy, and your identity. Create space to feel comfortable in your own skin, stabilise in something that feels good and then start to dream again.
Who’s Holding Space for You?
I’m Nicci Lou - an ICF-trained, Certified Neurodiversity Specialist Confidence Coach, queer AuDHD mum of neurodivergent kids, and former Senior Paediatric Nurse (trained at Great Ormond Street Hospital).
I barely made it through my teens, risk took through my 20s, and spent my 30s in a pain so constant it felt like a second skin. Eventually, I stopped trying to fix myself - and started building a life that actually fit.
And wouldn’t you know… the chronic pain and poor mental health began to ease.
The first thing I did with that new-found health? As a solo parent I took my two primary-aged kids travelling through 18 countries over two years - life learning as we went.
In the last of those countries, Japan, I sat across from a woman whose child had just received a neurodivergent diagnosis. She was vomiting daily from overwhelm - terrified for her daughter’s future. And I thought - maybe it’s time we - the masked, the misfits, the quietly brilliant - let ourselves be seen…
I created this FREE workshop because for 40 years I lived a half life. I bought into the heteronormative script. I went through the pointless hospital admissions. The unnecessary operations. The years of collecting diagnoses and being told I was too much - or not enough.
This is the workshop I wish had existed for me. And now, with the Seek. Shift. Shine.™ methodology, it’s here for you too.

“How to unmask is a deep dive into how to unmask, where participants are gently guided with humour, real life stories and compassion to start/ continue the process of learning and healing in a safe space. ”

“I have had the opportunity to be coached by Nicci several times and through that work have been able to get unstuck and accomplish tasks that I had struggled to initiate for months if not years. Nicci asks great questions that really challenged my own through processes and supported me through getting unstuck.”

Frequently Asked Questions
These are some of the questions people most frequently ask about the workshop:
What am I selling?
Absolutely nothing. This is a free workshop no sales pitch whatsoever.
Do I need to be diagnosed with something to attend?
Definitely not. Whether coming from an unsafe home, growing up LGBTQIA+ in a heteronormative world or just feeling different in a neurotypical world. Lots of people make the unconscious decision to mask - it's time to make the decision consciously.
I've turned up as me before and it didn't go well - why will this be any different?
I am sorry you experienced that. It's not as simple as wearing a mask that you pull on and off. The act of masking has changed our foundations and to be safe there's a process that I will show you. Something you can be in charge of every step of the way.
Is there a replay?
Yes, you'll be sent the best replay but it may not be the call you signed up for.
