Life is about relationships and connections
Connections within our world have grown distant or disappeared all together.
Transform works to reconnect people to their own inner desires as well as to the communities they live and work in.
Transform is a global coaching and consulting firm that provides a vehicle to make those
connections and through them, serve the world.
“Begin challenging your own assumptions. Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won’t come in.”
Pamela Barit Nolan
Your passionate Transformational coach
I’m a global citizen that believes in every human’s right to live a life full of joy, laughter and fulfillment. My broad and varied life experiences allows me to approach my clients with a wide range of experience and skills. I thrive when challenged with complex issues.
I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in the areas of developing people, opening opportunities and assisting individuals and organisations as they journey through the different stages of being. As a manager, colleague, business developer and relationship manager, I have worked with people and organisations at all stages of their life cycles. I have created safe spaces for friends and colleagues and sometimes perfect strangers to open up and recognize their joy and desires.
I enjoy taking the smallest pieces of a puzzle and finding a way to co-create a beautiful picture from them. Whether working with individuals, couples, families, groups or organisations, the journey to arrive at the final picture is often full of adventure and discovery. The final creation is rewarding for all involved.
“Mindfulness and life coaching with Pam has been one of the most powerful experiences of my life. Pam’s flexible and adaptable approach has opened my eyes to the power of nature to achieve incredible results. Pam has equipped me with pragmatic tools to deal with the challenges life throws my way. Because of this, I’m now armed with simple but powerful coping strategies to manage my day-to-day anxiety due to my Asperger’s Syndrome (Autism). Undoubtedly, it’s because of Pam’s guidance and support that I feel, for the very first time, confident in exposing myself to social situations I’ve had to avoid in the past. I am now living a more fulfilling, meaningful and peaceful life that I love, and will continue to use what I have learned from my mindfulness and life coaching with Pam for years to come.”
– Dr. Spencer Brown, Business Owner, Bermuda

My story & background
My Story
Pamela began her career with the Bank of Bermuda in the corporate banking department. After graduate school, she continued her career in the banking industry working in both Chicago and New York. Pamela then joined Wellington Management in Boston where she was instrumental in forming the Firm’s Insurance Asset Management Group, growing assets from just under $100 million to over $20 billion.
In 2003, she made a life-changing decision, giving up her successful corporate career for travel, self-exploration. She then stepped into a 10-year career in the not-for-profit sector back in her island home of Bermuda.
As the Executive Director of The Centre on Philanthropy, she re-built the organisation, creating a vibrant and essential support mechanism for Bermuda’s charitable sector.
In 2013, feeling restless once again, and realising that she was being called to use her skills in a different way, she stepped out of the traditional work force and started Transform, a coaching and consulting firm, working to change the world one conversation at a time.
Since then she has had the privilege of working with individuals and organisations, partnering with them to solve challenges large and small. She continues her connection to the charitable sector by serving on the protector committee of the Cummings V. Zuill Leadership Award.
