If you have used this motto, has it made a difference in the things you let bother you?
Next steps in your personal and professional growth can feel overwhelming. How do you get from FEAR to EMBODIED BELIEF, and internal KNOWING success is your only option? 👏The same way I’ve survived 10 years of entrepreneurship without a business degree or backup plan. Through deepening inner trust, regulating your nervous system, energetic connection, and surrounding yourself with likeminded individuals also on the path of growth! ❤️It’s one step at a time (more in stories on this), but I promise you can feel more secure on the journey ahead once you set goals and see the results start coming in. ➡️Words from a recent PWH program participant: “If you are looking for mind, body, and heart connection and going deeper into healing old patterns in your body so you can take purposeful and aligned action, then this is absolutely for you. Nicole is a great balance of holding space for you while also helping you stay accountable to what you are looking to accomplish.” 🧘New private offering about to drop to folks in the community first and you want to be in the know!!! If you’re ready to release stress, build confidence, and move forward with a somatic approach that aligns your body and mind- drop an emoji in comments! 🔎🔎🔎 #shesaboss #somaticpractice #breathworkfacilitator #activemeditation #consciousdance #transformationalretreats #wellnessspeaker #bestsellingauthor #certifiedcoach #holisticbusinesscoach #yogamentor #confidencecoach #nervoussystemregulation

I was honored to be invited to speak at the AAOE's (American Association of Orthopaedic Executives and American Alliance of Orthopaedic Executives) annual conference today in Chicago!

It was such a pleasure serving on behalf of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, incorporated! Rho Zeta Omega Chapter, as a speaker for our “Free Your Mind” Fire side chat community event, for Stress Awareness month. We had intimate conversations with women in our community. I loved the openness, vulnerability, and non judgmental space felt by those who attended. It’s my passion to create safe spaces and have conversations that need to be had for our communities. If we don’t provide them, who will? My great tag team speaker, Dr. Telisa Spikes was amazing and has a wealth of knowledge. In addition to, The amazing Maisha White Drayton as our MC. I call her “Oprah” because she always does an amazing job MCing. Thank you to everyone who came out. The event was at capacity before I could even post about it, sorry. #selfcarejourney #transformationcoach #StressManagement #blackgirlsrock #speakers #mentalhealthawareness #hearthealth #mentalhealthcounselor #therapistlife #therapist #counselor #wellnessspeaker

What thing are you great at doing?
If you don’t make time for your wellness, you will have to make time for your illness - Joyce Sunada This is my little art space. Over the years there have been a handful of quotes, or well meaning words that have stuck with me. Joyce Sunada and her words have really impacted me. I struggle with people pleasing, always saying yes, even when I am unable to cope, I spread myself like butter over toast that’s too big. Being “lazy” or taking time to sit down and rest is very hard for me, but words like Sunada’s hit me like a train. Burnout is my best friend and it’s a toxic friendship to say the least. This quote is tickling my brain every day, a very helpful tool to encourage rest in my actions. To know that spending time on my wellness is important, and should be. If your struggle is similar to mine, please give her a Google/Youtube. #joycesunada #wellnessspeaker #joyful #wellness #mentalhealthawareness #mentalwellness #wellnessoverillness #positive #positivity #happiness #anxiety #depression #dysmorphia #community #familyproblems #communication #burnout #itsokaynottobeokay #ruok #safespace #shareyourstories #onemoresunnyday
This month is stress awareness month I will be hosting a number of talks and events so I thought I’d share a few of my slides with you. 91% of UK adults experienced high or extreme levels of pressure or stress in the past year. One in five workers need to take time off work due to poor mental health caused by pressure or stress over the last year. Burnout is recognised by the world health organisation as an occupational phenomenon and defined as ; A syndrome conceptualised as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed. It is characterised by three dimensions: 1. Feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion 2. Increased mental distance from one’s job or feelings of negativism or cynicism related to one’s job 3. Reduced professional efficacy Did you know that how we perceive stress has the biggest influence on how we feel and how we manage stressful situations? There’s a great TED talk by Kelly McGonigal that’s well worth a view called “How to make stress your friend”. Well worth a watch. I’ll be making various posts through the month so I really hope you enjoy them and please do share with your friends and family, especially our youngsters who need to understand how to create their own kit to manage their thinking styles every day. I’d love to hear what works for you to get you through stressful times? I feel having a tool kit with things that we know instantly calms us is so helpful. But we also need things we know work for short term stresses and also long-term stressors so I will be going into more detail about those too. #Stress #WorkplaceBurnout #WorkplaceWellness #CorporateWellBeing #WellBeingAtWork #wellnessspeaker #explore #explorepage

THE BLISS IMPACT My thirty-year history also included developing and teaching mind-body programs, opening several yoga studios, working at health spas, facilitating global retreats and coaching thousands in personal growth and wellness of all kinds. As a sought-after speaker, mentor and coach, I moved from the shores of Lake Michigan to Seattle, Washington in 2016 and founded Live Blissful and BeWell Retreats, which creates transformational experiences, including “Sleep Retreats” to unplug from a stress-filled world. #sleepcoach #wellnessspeaker #sleepretreat #aliveandwell #wellnessretreats #meditationteacher
I cannot tell you how much this makes me cringe when I think about this. We’ve all been this person at one point in our lives and it’s hard to admit. Don’t EVER lose yourself to love someone. It can take years and lots of heartache for you to figure out who you were before and get back to that person. Not all change is bad but, completely forgetting who you are is never worth it. #relationtips #mentalhealth #wellnessspeaker #positiveenvironment #amavitherapy #healthyworkculture #mentalhealth #relationshiptranslator #wellness #relationshipadvice #positiverelationships
For everyone moving through a difficult phase I see you, I’ve been there and I just came out of one too. Keep showing up even when the going gets tough as this will pass.

What have you successfully faced and changed?
A phrase I’ve used for years stopped me in my tracks today. “Self care isn’t selfish.” We’ve all heard it. I’ve said it. I’ve written it in this community a million times. And I also believe it. In fact - in the early years of motherhood when I grappled with anything that meant I’d be putting myself first - I had to rely on that phrase to motivate me to make time for myself when I so deeply felt like it would take me away from being a good mom and wife. I needed to remind myself that taking some time to prioritize my own needs WAS part of putting my kids first and WAS part of what made me show up to my marriage, friendships, family relationships and work as my WHOLE self. But today — as someone who has worked so hard to build a deeper love and respect for myself as a whole person — I couldn’t shake this other thought I had about the phrase. Because … why? Why CAN’T self care be selfish sometimes? Why CAN’T practicing it be… selfishly for me? For me the human being. Me the one who wants to feel the benefits of mental, physical and emotional wellness … for me? Me the one who knows it will better my own life to take time to slow down and prioritize my own needs. And the fact that it ALSO positively impacts the way I show up for my family? Gosh isn’t that just the greatest, most beautiful bonus. If you are in the stage of life where it’s helpful to be reminded that self care ISN’T selfish — I’ll say it to you again — SELF CARE IS NOT SELFISH. But, friends - may we also give ourselves permission to carve out time for ourselves … just for that. For us.

Belief in your abilities will take you far and belief in your worthiness will take you to greater heights and beyond ⬆️. I dreamt of speaking on a TEDx stage many years ago. I studied TEDx videos and read books on giving TED talks, but I struggled with belief in my worthiness of that opportunity. I continued to work on myself to quiet my harmful self judge so I can foster a deeper sense of self-love and acceptance. Two years ago, I found the courage to share this dream out loud and add it to my vision board . This year my dream has become a reality simply because I believed that I’m worthy ❤️. There’s still time to get your tickets to support me and all of my fellow speakers at the upcoming @tedxroxbury event.

What a birthday! If this birthday week was indicative of what this 4th decade will be like? I’m so here for it! New levels of love, abundance, and success unlocked!!! All in all, my biggest takeaway from my 30’s is “BE YOURSELF UNAPOLOGETICALLY. Those that matter don’t mind, those that mind- well if you really matter to them, they’ll figure it out.” You can quote me. 1) Thank you to my husband @wjlevay for putting together a dream party event with loved ones! 2) Thank you to everyone who came out for the night, and/also wished me well on socials! If I haven’t gotten back to you, I saw it- love you thank you! 3) Thank you to my awesome clients for saying yes and bravely kicking off their Forward Momentum journey in the most vibrant community this week! 4) Thank you to @themonmouthmoms for giving me my first non-dance show mainstage speaking experience! (I have heard from the feedback that I did in fact “nail it”, gives me so much more confidence to continue to offer these talks on somatics and breathwork far and wide as my vision intends!) 5) Thank you to @ingoodcompanydance for making my “Mamas In Da Club” dreams come true! This decade will have more of these, like it or not world! ➡️ Thank you to all who support me, my family, this work, this company- it ripples outward and I can’t do it alone! Stay tuned on this platform in the coming weeks and months as we are back in creation mode and there are goodies for new friends and old friends coming back! *Shout out any requests/guesses in comments!!!* 😱 PS, ONE 1:1 personal somatic coaching and breathwork spot has opened at the end of the month.

What helped you turn around?
What happened when you did?
When someone is diagnosed with a mental health disorder, it can provide validation and a new level of understanding for the individual. However, it can also carry challenges. As rates of mental health concerns continue to increase, it is important to understand what diagnosis of a psychological disorder actually means. Disorders are labels that describe clusters of emotional, physical, and behavioural symptoms. Similar to when a physician looks for a specific combination of physical symptoms to diagnose pneumonia, for example, a mental health disorder diagnosis occurs in a similar way. A qualified clinician assesses the individual and determines if they are experiencing select symptoms at a pre-specified severity and frequency (these criteria are published in a clinical manual). If so, they may provide a diagnosis. It’s important to know that diagnostic cutoffs are arbitrary. ✏️ While some diagnoses are more stable than others, a person might meet the criteria for a disorder one week and not meet the same criteria the next week. ✏️ A person could experience significant distress or impairment from symptoms associated with one or more psychological disorders without meeting the full criteria for any mental health disorder. ✏️ A person could consistently meet the criteria for a mental health disorder but lack access to diagnosis. While the diagnosis of a mental health disorder can increase understanding about one's mental health, increase their access to accommodations, and make communication between clinicians more efficient, it can also bring about stigma and other consequences. Our expert speakers address these important issues and provide accessible talks and workshops on a range of mental health and wellness topics. Our expert mental health Speaker, Nicole, discusses what mental health is, the difference between mental health disorders versus concerns, and how we can all protect and promote our mental health in her WellIntel talk.

We are storytellers and most people love stories filled with drama, action and chaos. Tomorrow turn off the TV, connect with your heart and get intentional with your energy. What would you love to call forth and what timeline would you love to be on and live and experience? Asking yourself expansive questions is important. Otherwise just get dragged by life matching the energy we meet, feeling disconnected and vulnerable to external fears and stories. Go within, it’s where your life is truly created. Step into your own power and stop listening to the stories that have nothing to do with your life. #meditation #breathwork #breathewithme #activatelovingyourself #energyiscurrency #loveyourself #selfcare #presence #somaticwork #meditate #breathwork #thefull360 #relaxation #energymanagement #relaxtoattract #grounding #nature #thealycode #slowdowntospeedup #yourwordisyourwand #coachingtips #getbackup #loveyourself #mindfulness #awareness #keynotesepeaker #motivationalspeaker #wellnessspeaker
In a world where access mental health and wellness information is everywhere, it can be hard to know what wellness information, strategies, and tools are the real deal and supported by science, versus a fad 😕 At WellIntel, our Mission is to increase access to evidence-based, credible wellness information. One way we do this is through our monthly WellIntel Wellness blog. Each month, we bring a short, digestible, and practical blog post to help our readers improve their wellness through science-backed strategies.

🤔Have you ever considered your Wellness is interconnected? For example, there are many different compartments of Wellness: Mental health, emotional, spiritual, physical, occupational, social, & financial Wellness. 👉Often, when one aspect is affected, it gradually affects other areas of our health. 👍Today @lululemon Walking & Wellness Club we discussed what part of our individual Wellness is being challenged & how to get it realigned at its core. 🤗As always, thank you to @lululemon for helping me create space for these important conversations & for the gifts!! 👏Next class 4/17 at 9:15am @grandboulevard ⬇️What aspect of your Wellness do you need to address & how is it affecting other areas of your life?

Last week I had the honour of speaking at the Radiant Voices, Resilient Ventures held by @startnowincubator & @onsidenow, in collaboration with @macaw.events who so beautifully created an event space that was so intentional, warm and welcoming. The title of my presentation was “Igniting our Inner Light: Embracing Vulnerability to Finding Victory.” And let me tell you, I was so moved by the many women who spoke with me after my presentation, sharing their stories with me. It was never my intention to be an entrepreneur, but it was my experiences that brought me here once I chose to embrace my challenges and help shine a light on the path of others. This journey has been more impactful than I had ever imagined and has connected me to so many others who are also navigating their own path. Choosing courage creates unique opportunities for us all. We all have a unique journey that belongs to us. And it’s our vulnerability that facilitates meaningful change. Vulnerability is the key that unlocks the very things that keeps us bound — it releases our voices to be free and radiant and keeps our hearts beating toward creativity and innovation. Walk boldly on your path, and dare to dream courageous dreams. Be different — there is only one you who can deliver a dream like you do. 🤍 I’m thankful for this opportunity to speak. I’m thankful for all the beautiful souls who showed up for themselves ✨ #SpeakLife #RadiantVoices #ResilientVentures #LifeOutLoud #ProfessionalStoryteller #MartinaKelades
For so many years I found it hard to receive compliments, kindness and actually constantly deflected them. One of the reasons I do what I do is to help people empower themselves with incredible tools for transformation. When I received this email from Dani I just felt such deep gratitude for her and was deeply touched by her words. I have been blessed with mentors, coaches and teachers who showed me a different way of being and living. How could you not pass that on? We are starting DreamBuilding next week if you would like to be a part of it DM ME and we’ll set up a call.

This is the foundation upon which a great life is built. Everything is energy and we are all moving energy around all day every day. When we take time to become more mindful about how we spend our energy, who we spend it with and then take time to learn what fills us up, your life changes in the most miraculous way. Creating space each day to relax and come home to yourself is also a really important way to deposit into your bank account of energy. So how do you spend yours??? #meditation #breathwork #breathewithme #activatelovingyourself #energyiscurrency #loveyourself #selfcare #presence #somaticwork #meditate #breathwork #thefull360 #relaxation #energymanagement #relaxtoattract #grounding #nature #thealycode #slowdowntospeedup #yourwordisyourwand #coachingtips #getbackup #loveyourself #mindfulness #awareness #keynotesepeaker #motivationalspeaker #wellnessspeaker
