New Cohort Begins Wednesday, January 7, 2026
To ensure your questions are answered:
The Liminal Leader
A 7-Week Experiential Process Group for Founders & Leaders in Deep Transition
We Begin Thursday September 18th
You know something is shifting.
You just haven't had a room to say it out loud.
This isn't confusion. It's a threshold. And the woman reading this knows the difference.
The way you've been leading no longer feels true to who you are becoming — and the proof that it worked is the very thing making it hard to let go.
You feel the pull toward a different way of living, but the path isn't mapped. And that uncertainty is sitting in your body.
Anxiety, fear, or even a quiet depression may be showing up — not because something is wrong with you, but because you are carrying a real transition in the middle of a world that isn't slowing down.
Kids are launching. Relationships are shifting. The news is heavy. And underneath all of it, something in you is asking to be born.
You could muscle through this season alone. You've done it before. That's not the question.
"The question is why should
you have to?"
What a process group actually is
The Liminal Space is all three.
That's what makes it rare.
Most spaces offer one of these things. This room holds all of them — because women in real transition need to be witnessed, held in community, and moved forward. Separately, those things are valuable. Together, they become transformative.
Witnessed experience
You are seen. Fully.
What you carry — the complexity, the contradiction, the grief of outgrowing something that used to work — is named and held without reduction.
Held in community
You are not alone in it.
The women in this room understand your context in ways that most people in your life cannot. That recognition is its own kind of relief.
Collective movement
You are moved forward.
We don't just name the experience. The room moves you toward decision, embodiment, and the next livable step — together.
"This is not a space where women gather to name what's hard and go home. It's a clinically held container where the group itself becomes the instrument of change."

What becomes
possible here
01.
Clarity you can stand on
Not a rushed answer — grounded clarity about what your next chapter is asking of you, so decisions feel rooted and intentional rather than reactive.
02.
Trust in your own discernment
The confidence to follow your inner authority again, even when the path isn't fully mapped and certainty isn't guaranteed.
03.
A nervous system that can hold what's changing
Practical, somatic tools for working with fear, uncertainty, and risk — so your body stops fighting the future you're trying to step into.
04.
Movement without self-abandonment
A way of actualizing what's emerging without over-functioning, over-explaining, or disappearing parts of yourself to feel safe.
What's Shifting For You:
You're a leader or founder who senses that the old way of showing up doesn’t fit anymore.
You feel the mirror turned inward, asking tough questions about identity, influence, and purpose.
Confidence has dimmed. Community doesn’t feel like it used to. You’re wrestling with that liminal ache.
Yet inside that discomfort, you sense a quiet invitation—to be remade, but Rebelliously different
What's Possible In This Space...
Recalibrate your nervous system in ways that open your posture to presence, clarity, and grounded authority.
Move beyond old stories—about yourself, your business, your future—and begin to build new architectures of meaning.
Show up restored and resourced, shaping decisions from a nervous system that can actually hold your leadership.
Be mirrored by a small, curated group of other leaders doing the same internal work—honest, courageous, sacred.

I built this room because I couldn't find it. Over a decade of holding high-stakes spaces for those who hold and lead others — women navigating reinvention, grief, transition, and the quiet work of telling the truth to themselves.
But this container wasn’t born in a boardroom. The Liminal Space emerged during my own season of profound transition.
I found myself needing support, wanting to be held, and realizing how few spaces existed that were both emotionally safe and clinically grounded enough to hold me in my unraveling. Most options were either prohibitively expensive, overly performative, or lacked the depth required to work with complexity and nuance.
So I built the space I couldn’t find. A space that is grounded, culturally coherent, and intentionally accessible.
I hold this room not only as a therapist, but as a woman who has had to dismantle her own survival strategies to find her breath again. I know the terror of the pivot. I know the grief of an old identity ending. And I know that you cannot think your way out of a pattern you felt your way into.
This space exists so you don’t have to do that work alone.

This was an amazing experience. The conversations were fruitful. I always left each week feeling empowered and I also gained useful take aways to help me in my journey.
Please keep this going. The world needs to see this! I thought I'd feel overwhelmed; but you are a master at facilitating conversations.
Being in a room full of high achieving women, while discussing our vulnerabilities all while uplifting each other was awe inspiring and breath taking.
The Liminal Space is a place to come and just be—supported in truths that don't seem like they can be safely named elsewhere.
It allowed me to realize how much I've grown and helped me move more fully into my role as a community leader and spiritual guide. I was able to clearly see how my responses and perspectives have shifted. If you are willing to explore and move through what is present for you, this is the place to do it.
I get it if it feels vulnerable. But know this: Nichomi does a wonderful job of creating and holding space to guide your process. You don't have to perform or know anything—just be willing to explore the truth of what's present for you.
I've participated in other groups, but the space here is held differently—with a level of care and safety I haven't found elsewhere. Even joining from the East Coast, I looked forward to this connection. It became a place where I could consistently find ground, regulation, and clarity amidst the noise of life.
Yes, you come together originally as strangers, but by the end of week two, a healing bond develops. A connection is cultivated, and you start to look forward to being in the space, eager to connect
This room may not be the right fit if...
Clarity on this protects the container for everyone.
You are currently navigating an acute mental health crisis. This is a process group, not a crisis intervention.
You are looking for a business strategy session or masterclass. This work often leads to greater clarity in your professional life — but the woman holding the vision is the focus, not the business itself.
You are unwilling to honor the lived experiences, gender identities, or spiritual beliefs of others in the room.
You want someone to tell you what to do next. This space helps you hear yourself more clearly — not replace your own discernment.

Your Facilitator
Nichomi Higgins, LMFT | Best-Selling Author | Strategist
I’m Nichomi Higgins—a licensed psychotherapist, two-time author, strategist, and space holder for women in leadership who find themselves navigating the existential in-between.
On paper, I’ve lived many versions of success: a thriving therapy practice, bestselling books, corporate contracts, and keynote stages. Behind the scenes, I’ve also wrestled with what so many high-impact leaders quietly carry: the weight of responsibility, the fear of letting others down, the exhaustion of always being the one who holds—and the spiritual call to rebel against systems that stifle and oppress.
That tension led me into my own liminal season. What once grounded me no longer fit. What was ahead had yet to reveal itself. Disorienting, yes—but also the birthplace of integration.
Today, my work is rooted in equity, healing justice, and the belief that women of color deserve spaces where we don’t have to explain why our transitions carry unique weight. My work is about creating the spaces I once needed: places where founders, executives, therapists, and creatives can pause, breathe, and reconnect with themselves. Spaces that are structured yet human, trauma-informed yet creative, strategic yet soulful.
In this process group, I bring all of that with me. My clinical background, my narrative lens, and my lived experience come together to help you step into your next chapter with clarity, openness, and a sense of authority that embraces the whole of who you are.

Nichomi Higgins, LMFT
Hi there! I’m a licensed psychotherapist and author who has spent over a decade holding high-stakes rooms for women in leadership — women navigating reinvention, grief, transition, and the quiet work of telling the truth to themselves.
But this container wasn’t born in a boardroom.
The Liminal Space emerged during my own season of profound transition.
I found myself needing support, wanting to be held, and realizing how few spaces existed that were both emotionally safe and clinically grounded enough to hold a leader in her unraveling. Most options were either prohibitively expensive, overly performative, or lacked the depth required to work with complexity and nuance.
So I built the space I couldn’t find. A space that is grounded, culturally coherent, and intentionally accessible.
I hold this room not only as a therapist, but as a woman who has had to dismantle her own survival strategies to find her breath again. I know the terror of the pivot. I know the grief of an old identity ending. And I know that you cannot think your way out of a pattern you felt your way into.
This space exists so you don’t have to do that work alone.
Ready to find out if this room is for you?
I'm old school about this. Before you invest anything, I want to have a real conversation — 15 minutes to understand where you are, answer your questions, and create a space that allows you to honestly assess whether this container is what you need right now.
Or join the waitlist and I'll be in touch when enrollment opens.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if I can’t attend live?
Consistency matters. This group is experiential and confidential, which means sessions are not recorded and cannot be replayed. However session recaps are provided for members to further process specific themes discussed. To protect the integrity of the space, your presence each week is essential; but we understand that emergencies occur.
How do you handle confidentiality?
Participant confidentiality is key. All members will be asked to sign a confidentiality agreement before the group begins. What is shared in the group, stays in the group. Consultations are scheduled prior to enrollment to ensure alignment.
Why a process group instead of individual coaching?
Research shows that group work is one of the most effective formats for processing transition and building resilience. In fact, studies have found group participants experience equal — and often greater — levels of growth and sustained change compared to individual work, because they benefit from shared reflection, accountability, and perspective. Its also my favorite way to affect change.
Can I work with you 1:1 in addition to the group?
Yes. There will be opportunities to work with me individually for added support. We can talk more about this option during your consult.
When will sessions take place?
Sessions will be held on the same day and time each week, in Pacific Standard Time. Each session runs 110 minutes. This consistency helps the group establish safety, rhythm, and flow. In the event that demand allows, I may open a cohort, specifically for the east coast.
What if the group fills before I apply?
Each cohort is intentionally capped at 12 participants to maintain intimacy and depth. If this group fills, I may open an additional cohort running concurrently on Wednesdays to ensure no one gets lost in the process.
Do you accept insurance?
The Liminal Space is not covered by insurance. However, if you have a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA), you may be able to use those funds for participation. I'd encourage you to check with your plan administrator to confirm eligibility. Simply ask if funds can be used to cover therapeutic support groups.
