Hickman, NE 68372

Holly Rocole is a Family Nurse Practitioner with 26 years of experience in nursing, beginning her career in pre-op and recovery where she cared for patients before and after surgery in hospital settings. For the past 18 years, she has practiced as a family nurse practitioner with clinical experience across general surgery, hospice, and family practice. Her early nursing path was deeply influenced by her mother, who also worked as a nurse in pre-op and recovery and served as a lasting inspiration throughout her career.

In 2020, Holly’s mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, and following her passing in 2021, Holly experienced a profound personal shift that reconnected her to her original purpose in healthcare. During this time, she returned to her passion for health, wellness, and prevention as a guiding force in both her personal and professional life. This experience ultimately shaped her expanded focus on helping others prevent and manage chronic disease through sustainable lifestyle change.

Since 2023, Holly has also served as a Master Health and Fitness Coach while continuing part-time clinical work as a nurse practitioner. In her coaching practice, she specializes in helping clients achieve metabolic stability through nutrition and lifestyle interventions aimed at improving blood sugar regulation, reducing inflammation, increasing energy, and enhancing overall well-being. Through one-on-one coaching and ongoing support, she works with clients nationwide to help them build long-term, sustainable health habits and improve quality of life.

It was a heartbreaking reality of what was to come and trying to cope with the fact my mother would forget me. No one ever prepares you for that. This disease is so life changing... But it stops with me! I follow the same principles that I will help coach you on. My husband's family history includes those with diabetes. We also have family and friends who struggle with being overweight. This doesn't have to be my husband's story either, or yours! My husband can take action so these diseases stop with him... and so can you! Simple changes are all it takes. I want you to see that chronic disease is beatable! Lets' face it, life is simply too short to live in the confines of a chronic disease. It's not impossible to achieve optimal health, and have your body run like the well oiled machine it was designed to be!

Q

What do you enjoy most about practicing medicine?

Just hearing people have so much joy over how much better they feel, and how quickly they notice that they are feeling better within the first one to two weeks of starting my health coaching program - they're already noticing results. Just to hear the joy in that, in the wins that they have, almost immediately after starting is so rewarding. I think it's so surprising to them how quickly lifestyle changes can really help them when we make them work for them, that it's just an honor to truly help people in this way.
