Hi, I’m Alison Tindall. I’m a board-certified nurse coach, founder of Thriving Willow Coaching, a wife, and a mom of two boys. I’ve spent over 18 years in nursing, supporting people through some of the hardest seasons of their lives—but my work really deepened when my own life did.
I’ve walked through pregnancy loss, infertility, a major career loss, and my own health transformation where I’ve lost and maintained over 160 pounds. But more than the physical change, it was the emotional and identity shift that really changed me.
Now, I help women bridge the gap between knowing what to do and actually living it—so they can find balance, resilience, and feel like themselves again. I’m really passionate about reminding women that they don’t have to do this alone, and that healing doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
