or a joyous journey.
My passion to give and share my knowledge, story, and resources has led me to create the Ivori Nicole Coaching Practice. I know what it takes to curate the life you desire. From experience, I can tell you that it usually goes two ways: a slippery slope...

1 in 8 couples have trouble getting pregnant or sustaining a pregnancy. My husband of over 20 years and I were one of those 8.
It wasn’t always this fabulous.
Not only was I frustrated at not being able to have a child in the way I imagined, but my life was turned upside down when I couldn’t get an answer from experts. At the age of 40, I was able to conceive a natural pregnancy, but suffered a loss.
I chose not to be defeated. I moved forward with nine In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) cycles over a two year period. I was relentless in my goal. At 43 and 19 years of marriage, I became pregnant by IVF and officially entered my parenting journey. While all of this internal storm was happening, I was still running a business and growing my career! You don’t have to look at me like that...I know it was a roller coaster. I lived it.
I received an unexplained infertility diagnosis at the age of 25.
My Slippery Slope
I am your sister, friend, and advocate in your journey through infertility, pregnancy + infant loss, motherhood, and mompreneurship. View a snapshot of my journey and collaboration with Johns Hopkins Medicine below.
Who is Ivori Nicole?
I’m proof that there’s joy to be found in every story.
In the midst of my pain, I’ve become a mommy to angels born into heaven, and a rainbow baby (a baby born after pregnancy loss). I have been married to my best friend for over 20 years, Kevin, and have two fur babies, Kole and Kloe. My support system has been my rock, and they are the reason I’ve been able to grow my success-story to new heights.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Master of Arts in Human Resources Management, and a doctoral candidate currently completing my degree in Educational Leadership. I’ve had the pleasure of having careers in both higher education and the federal government for over 20 years along with owning a coaching practice that I hold dear to my heart. In addition to managing my business, I am a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) Certified Practitioner, professor in the areas of psychology and business management, and have garnered features from Baltimore Business Journal, Washingtonian, and CBS and Fox affiliates.
