Welcome!
Hello! I’m Abby Payne — Board Certified Nurse Coach, Mindfulness Guide, Recovering People Pleaser, Digital Addiction Recovery and Self-Care Coach.
As a bedside nurse, I’ve had a front row seat to the struggle of everyday people trying to keep up with the world.
Obtaining and maintaining health is complex.
We know what we need to do: cut out soda, go outside, drink water, eat more fruits and veggies, and prioritize sleep.
Most of us binge Netflix and order Take Out anyway.
True health requires a Holistic Approach.
“I was stuck in a place of fear before working with Abby.
She helped inspire me to jump-start my courage, hope, and determination back into into a positive place. I feel excited, greatful, and surprised I was able to do so much in such a short time. ”
My philosophy as a Coach is Wholeness.
You are whole, healed, and fully capable of having the life you want right now.
You have a deep well of internal wisdom waiting to be tapped.
You are not broken. You do not need “fixing”.
What you need is support, accountability and tools.
You are the expert of your life and health.
My role as your coach is not to give unsolicited advice or tell you what to do.
My role is to guide you towards reflection, discovery and the meaning behind your desires and limiting beliefs — to provide a safe space to explore your values, play with ideas and dreams, and give you the resources and tools needed to bring you into your wholeness.
“Man does not simply exist but always decides what his existence will be, what he will become the next moment. By the same token, every human being has the freedom to change at any instant.”

P.S.
Coaching is best understood through experience.
That’s why I offer a free coaching session for you to experience the Nurse Coach difference.
I love meeting new people and hearing their stories. You will be surprised how much clarity and direction you can gain from just 1 session.
So please, don’t hesitate to reach out for the support you need.
