Nyla Kimberley

Self-Leadership Coach & Educator

"I built the space I went looking for and could not find."

A coach and educator for women who are done figuring it out alone. The full story is below. The short version is that I needed this once, and it did not exist, so I made it.

What Nyla Kimberley is

"A space dedicated to high-performing women who want to build a life they actually enjoy."

This is a coaching and education practice for two women. The one who is performing at a high level on the outside and is privately chaotic on the inside. And the woman who has already made the hard decision to leave what was no longer working and needs a sturdy foundation for what comes next.

Neither of them needs another pep talk. They need a structure, a room of women who get it, and someone who has done the work to walk them through it. That is what this is.

See how we work together

Less motivational speeches. More movement. Less talking about change. More building the systems that support it.

The thing most people will not say out loud

You cannot build a new life alone.

Whether you are holding it all together or standing in the cleared space after letting something go. You need the right environment around you.

"The community I am building is where you will find like minded women to help you thrive, not just survive."

The story

How this started.

I left what was no longer working. Which never feels brave in the moment. And slowly started to find my footing.

It is like holding your breath constantly at the beginning. Waiting for the next thing that you are sure will push you over the edge. I felt like I held my breath for about 3 years. Right then and there you are certain you cannot go on a moment longer. But you do. You find strength from somewhere. I know I did.

"The shame of where you are compared to where you were perceived to be keeps you crippled for a while. That is ok."

I was exhausted all the time. Mainly from overthinking. Scared of making the wrong decision. Second guessing every decision, and of course never having the right people around you to hold your hand. And I did find them. On Instagram. Women posting about who they had become and where they were going.

The problem was it felt so unreachable. So impersonal. I wanted what she had. I just had no idea how to get there.

Community over isolation

"My main community was the dance community. It is where I found my feet and started to see myself again. It is also where I made my mistakes, in the safety of a community that could catch me."

Tramaine Kimberley

That is why Nyla Kimberley was born. To guide and coach every woman who has stepped out, led herself and others through the chaos raging internally and externally, and still stands.

"Softer than you imagine but stronger than you anticipate."

And then

And then I built.

The hard part. I had to drop every expectation everyone else had of me. Every judgement. Every opinion. God told me to get real quiet so I could actually see where I was and hear where to go next.

Identity before strategy

"In the quiet, I had to ask myself who are you, without the noise. My coach asked me the same thing. Who are you if your titles are stripped, and it is just you, on your own."

Yes, I have a coach. It is necessary to go that far, that fast.

At first I was looking for someone to save me. Then I broke down and cried, because I realised no one was coming. I had to save myself.

"So I gave myself the permission I needed to get up and create the life I actually wanted."

So I moved. Not running away this time. On purpose. I chose bigger, more expensive, which was technically out of my reach. I chose it anyway. Then once I was in, I panicked. Like Tony Robbins had said, I had upped my standards real high. Now I had to build the ecosystem to make it sustainable. There was no going back.

I audited every penny going out and tracked where it went. I checked my account every single day so I was never unaware of what was in it. I built a spreadsheet. Then I made a list. Not a vision board. A post-it list of the things that actually needed doing. Booked the dentist. Built a cleaning schedule. Sorted my hair. Put my phone on DND. Focused on me. Unsexy. Necessary. Non negotiable.

I changed jobs too. I moved into a sales performance coach role, and within three months I was seconded into an L&D Lead position for a programme. That is where I am now. Things move when you do.

"All of this in six months. Not years. Six months."

And now I am in a great place. I continue to grow. And as I learn, I turn back and teach and coach every woman who wants it.

Systems over willpower

"None of it was motivation. It was systems. Motivation runs out. A well built system does not."

The Build Your New Life framework is everything I did in those six months. The audit. The money spreadsheet. The schedule. The structure. The community. I have packaged every tool I actually used so you do not have to figure it out alone.

"And if you think that is all my story, you are very mistaken. Get to know me and you will start to hear a lot more. My teachings are wrapped in experience. My coaching is full of deep listening."

Where to start

Three ways to do the work.

The same Build Your New Life framework runs through all three. Start where you are. Go as deep as you need to.

What my clients are saying

In her words
"What stood out to me most about her coaching style were the reflective questions and exercises she incorporates so naturally into conversations. Those moments helped me see things from a deeper perspective and uncover thoughts I had not fully processed on my own."
Winnie Muchiri, Private Coaching Client
In her words
"After a visit to the doctors I was told my kidney function had dipped. It was shocking news. I was encouraged to speak with Tramaine to support me towards a healthier lifestyle. She helped me start intermittent fasting, change my diet, and increase my fitness. This shifted my whole mindset about diet and nutrition. My next visit showed my kidney function had improved greatly."
