My previous journey

I am Nicole Bartko, and I bring a unique blend of IT expertise and spiritual practice to my work. With 13 years of experience in IT projects, I have developed not only technical knowledge and leadership skills but also an understanding of the importance of communication and mindfulness in the professional context.

IT Projects and Professional Experience
As a project and product manager, I have successfully led numerous IT projects. I excel at handling deadlines, project tensions, and risk analyses—all crucial aspects. However, my true focus is on the people: the employees, the leadership, and how we create and collaborate together. I firmly believe that mutual cooperation, open and transparent communication, and a healthy culture around mistakes are the keys to success.

Mentoring and Women Circles
In addition to my technical career, I am dedicated to mentoring and supporting others on their journey to personal and professional growth. My women circles provide a space for women to connect, heal, and grow. These circles foster deeper understanding and stronger connections with oneself and others, supported by mindful practices and open conversations.

A Holistic Approach
My passion lies in bridging the worlds of technology and spirituality. Through my mindfulness practices, I bring a new perspective to IT teams and projects, helping to utilize resources more efficiently and create a balanced work environment. My experience shows that this holistic approach not only leads to successful project execution but also to a more fulfilling and sustainable work culture.

A piece of me

My Professional Path

You could say my career path has been anything but conventional. With over 13 years of experience in IT project management, I'm passionate about what I do—but getting here was far from a straight line. Originally, I studied Asian and African Studies and once wrote a paper on heavy metal music in Indonesia. Between the ages of 20 and 30, you were more likely to find me on the road than in an office, working in hospitality and enjoying the adventure of travel. It wasn’t until I was 28 that I decided to settle down, finish my studies, and somehow found myself in IT as a working student. Since then, I’ve furthered my knowledge through intensive self-study and successfully brought what I’ve learned into the IT world. For me, it’s not just about technical success—people and collaboration are at the heart of everything I do. Projects really come to life when we find creative solutions together, and I place great importance on openness, empathy, and, above all, a good dose of joy in working together.

​

On My Spiritual Journey

After returning to Berlin from my journey in South Africa, I felt that a part of me—the free, vibrant Nicole—had been left behind. My old life felt constricting, leading me to embark on a path of inner healing. Through a close friend, I discovered Human Design, ceremonial cacao, and Reiki.

My first Reiki session was profoundly moving; it lasted three hours instead of the planned 90 minutes, as deep-seated blockages began to release. My heart ached, tears flowed, and a heavy burden lifted, allowing me to breathe freely once again. This healing process continued with my wonderful Reiki master.

Ceremonial cacao has since become a sacred part of my daily life. Preparing this plant medicine often opens my heart, leading me to dance, sing, laugh, and experience pure joy. I’ve consciously chosen the path of the heart—a journey filled with loving energy, deep connection, and gentle healing. Mama Cacao is my medicine of connection, accompanied by special womb-healing sessions and powerful moments of soul embodiment.

Another vital part of my spiritual journey is astrology, particularly synchronizing with the moon cycles. The phases of the moon influence not just the energies of nature but also my inner processes. Working in harmony with the lunar cycle helps me dive deeper into my intuition, align my emotions, and honor the natural rhythm of life. This astrological connection brings an added layer of understanding and harmony, enriching my spiritual practice and supporting me on my path.

​

Where Technology Meets Spirituality

For me, the technical and the subtle are equally important parts of life. I love blending structure with mindfulness, creating work environments that are not only productive but also fulfilling. My heart is dedicated to uniting these two worlds – for greater ease, clarity, and success in projects.

My approach brings a unique calm and clarity to every project, which positively impacts everyone I work with. Every morning, I set a clear intention and infuse my work with conscious energy, which others can feel and find motivating. In one-on-one sessions, we can explore and address blocks and limiting beliefs as far as desired. I listen carefully, remain open to everything shared with me, and do not judge. I also incorporate this spirituality into workshops, using visualization and breathwork when requested, to support and strengthen the team.

Mentoring and Women’s Circles

My journey into mentoring and women’s circles began nearly four years ago with plant medicine. What started as a personal healing path evolved into a passion that blossomed in February 2024 into the creation of women’s circles. These spaces, which were never planned, allow us to connect, laugh, cry, and grow in a safe environment. My work is infused with mindfulness, love, and the deep joy of guiding others on their paths. Whether in 1:1 sessions or group settings, my energy is dedicated to helping others explore and release deeper blocks and limiting beliefs, always going as far as each person desires. I listen carefully, value every word, and never judge, creating a space where true healing and transformation can happen.

Leading With the Heart- Life on Mallorca

Since moving to Mallorca, I’ve learned to embrace life even more fully. Balancing my online projects with the offline world is essential to me. Surrounded by the breathtaking nature of the island, I find peace and inspiration. Whether I’m at the beach, hiking, cycling, or exploring new places, I cherish every offline moment. You won’t find me often on social media; I prefer to live life to the fullest, with all its adventures and quiet moments. For me, life is a dance between worlds, between structure and spontaneity, and I’m excited to experience this dance anew every day.

With love,

Nicole ✨
