Meet Nicola,

Shamanic Dragon Priestess, Author, Founder of Soulful Wisdom Academy, Co-Host of the Dragon Thunder Summit

I’m Nicola. I guide women who are awakening to their deeper self—those who are ready to live more gently, more truthfully, and more in tune with their natural rhythm.

I’m the founder of Soulful Wisdom Academy and creator of the Shamanic Dragon Priestess Path, a 3-year Mystery School that weaves dragon medicine, feminine healing, and ancestral remembrance though the Sophianic Spiral of the Dragon Rose. I’m also the co-host of the Dragon Thunder Summit, creator of the Dragon Codes Wisdom Oracle Deck, and a two-time bestselling co-author of She Is… Unleashing Divine Feminine Power and Goddess.

But my path didn’t start with dragons. It started with devotion.

The Life I Built

I was a college lecturer teaching Early Years, Pilates and herb workshops, until I became a mother, then I was fully committed to my family and community. I anchored all the roles; mother first and foremost, housewife, and home educated our 3 boys on and off! I chaired the local pre-school, was a school governor, managed our family business accounts, baked for village events, tended to our animals and grew vegetables and herbs. I lost myself in an endless to do list whilst renovating our home, meanwhile hosting church groups in my home, welcomed the vicar in for tea, and led with care. These were roles I chose with love.

But over time, I realised I had been living so much for others, I’d forgotten how to simply be with myself.

When the vicar gave me a book, 'Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World', something shifted. I didn’t feel broken—but I did feel distant from myself. The book helped name something I hadn’t dared say:
I needed space. I needed stillness. I needed me.

The Awakening

It began quietly and suprisingly, not through the church. I was drawn to Reiki, Shamanism, to crystals, to moon cycles and herbs in a magical way.
On a holiday in Mexico, where I met a Shaman I'd seen in my dreams, my intuition opened fully - visions, memories, soul gifts I’d pushed aside. I wasn’t imagining it. I was remembering.

Then came the dragons.

They arrived like guardians in my dreams, fierce and loving. They guided me through fear and spiritual overwhelm, through releasing old beliefs and reclaiming my own power.
They still walk with me, and I now walk with them. 

What I Believe

• You don’t need fixing—you need space

• Spiritual awakening is often quiet, not dramatic

• Sometimes, we’re simply too busy to notice we’ve drifted

• Reconnection comes through grace, gentleness, and truth

• Nature teaches us to live in cycles and balance, not constant output

• You’re allowed to say no

• You’re allowed to live more simply, more peacefully, and more in tune with who you are
