About me

Nicki Cawood – Wellness copywriter

Strategy for business. Substance for wellbeing.

A grounded approach to the way we communicate

For twenty years, my work has been rooted in the belief that communication should be clear, honest and unshakeable. Based in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, I have spent two decades helping small business owners, creative professionals and wellbeing practitioners find their voice in a world that is often too loud and too fast.

As the digital landscape has become more crowded, I have found that effective copy isn’t just about driving results. It is about reflecting the true substance of the person behind the work. 

Wellness copywriting: Strategy and stillness

My background is in strategic copywriting and content planning. I hold the certifications and the two decades of heavy lifting experience you would expect from a professional copywriter. However, my practice today is equally informed by a commitment to mindfulness and intentional living.

As a wellness copywriter I help wellness practitioners such as coaches, yoga teachers, mentors, reiki professionals and other holistic-based business to reach their target audience and explain their therapies in a reader-friendly way.

Whether I am working with a local trade business to build professional authority or helping a therapist articulate their practice, I bring a unique perspective shaped by:

Mindfulness and meditation: As a mindfulness diploma holder and active member of the Plum Village sangha, I believe that the best communication comes from a place of clarity and presence rather than frantic content creation.

Journal therapy and narrative: A professional interest in journal therapy and the power of storytelling helps me to guide you toward a narrative that feels like a natural extension of yourself. 

Strategic rigour: Twenty years in the industry ensure that your content remains structurally sound and commercially effective. I am a certified copywriter and hold HubSpot certifications in both Content Marketing and Email Marketing (plus many more).

This technical foundation ensures that while the approach is intentional, the results are SEO-focused and results-driven.

Community and connection

In 2017, I founded Thirsk Coworking. What started as a way to combat the isolation of solo working has grown into a thriving community for freelancers and small business owners. This project remains at the heart of what I do: fostering genuine connection and support within the North Yorkshire business community.

Beyond the screen

When I am not helping clients find their voice or hosting coworking sessions, you will find me on my mat. Yoga is a weekly non-negotiable for me, as is time with my Sangha (Practising in the tradition of Plum Village and Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh). I also spend time writing on Substack studying, and enjoying time with my lovely family, here in Thirsk

Whether you need a full strategic rewrite or a more intentional way to manage your content, I am here to help you build a voice with substance.
