I’VE BEEN IN YOUR SHOES…
Hi there, my name is David Nichols and this is how I came to be a coach.
On the outside, I appeared to be a successful real estate agent. But the reality was different. Just because I was making money didn’t mean I felt successful, either in my career or my personal life. I struggled constantly to find balance, worried about money despite my earnings, and felt disconnected in my communication with clients and colleagues. I was overwhelmed, stuck, and frustrated. My solutions back then? Pour another glass of wine, switch brokerages, attend endless workshops, or simply withdraw from it all. None of it worked.
Then, I found a different kind of solution—one that changed everything. It wasn’t about quick fixes or changing brokerages again; it was about a structured, honest, and straightforward approach with a one-on-one coach. This wasn’t just someone handing me a set of worksheets or exercises like those I’d picked up at countless conferences and workshops, only to leave them unfinished. It was someone who asked the right questions, dug into my real motivations, and helped me identify the real roadblocks I had built for myself. It was the most challenging and rewarding journey of my career. So much so that I trained rigorously in coaching myself to understand the tools that transformed my life and business.
I earned my Professional Coaching Certification (PCC) from Erickson Coaching International, one of the leading ICF-certified institutions, solidifying my expertise in coaching methods that deliver real impact.
The skills I learned weren’t abstract or theoretical; they were tools that led to immediate change. I stopped stressing over my real estate business and started connecting authentically with clients and colleagues—even the challenging ones. Transactions happened with ease, even in a downward market, and the ups and downs of commission-based income no longer caused me anxiety.
It was at this point that I truly became passionate about helping others experience the same breakthroughs. That’s why I created EQ Advantage, a coaching program focused on practical skills that drive results. Whether it’s leveling up your career, making more money, handling stress more effectively, or finding balance in a chaotic world, this program is designed to empower you to take tangible steps toward success.
I understand how it feels to be stuck, searching for a way out of a tough chapter, and I know how powerful it is to finally experience real, lasting change. This isn’t about buzzwords or therapy—it’s about solutions that work. My mission is to help you build the life you’ve always wanted, not just professionally but personally too.
If you’re ready for results, let’s start making them happen together.
