About Us

Introducing Our Founder 

Welcome! I am Nicole Daniels, a custody coach, podcast host, and founder of Strategic Custody Consulting. I created this company after surviving a five-year high-conflict custody battle that tore my family apart and left me alienated from my son. At the beginning, I had no legal support, no money for an attorney, no guidance, and no idea where to turn. I entered family court completely alone, overwhelmed, and unprepared and the system swallowed me.

As a mother of five, losing custody and enduring years of parental alienation changed the trajectory of my life. My children lost years with their sibling, I missed priceless moments, and I battled the emotional and psychological toll of a system that was never designed to help parents like me. I know exactly what it feels like to be targeted, dismissed, afraid, and unsure of how to fight back.

But my story didn’t end there.
I fought my way out and I won my son back.

Through determination, strategy, and emotional resilience, I rebuilt my family and transformed my experience into a mission. Today, I help parents navigate the same system that almost broke me. I provide the tools, strategy, clarity, and emotional support I wish someone had given me when I needed it most.

Strategic Custody Consulting exists for one reason:
To make sure no parent walks into family court feeling as lost and unsupported as I once did.

If you’re overwhelmed, scared, confused, or exhausted by your custody battle, I want you to know this:
You are not alone and there IS a path forward.
You can stabilize your case, protect your child, stay emotionally strong, and create a better outcome than the one you fear.

My journey is proof.
If I could survive it and win, then with the right guidance, you can too.
