Nicole’s Healing Journey

Nicole started nutritional care in April 2019 for chronic fatigue, bloating, constipation, abdominal pain and nausea. Within a few weeks her digestive issues cleared and she suddenly had a new burst of positive energy! Nicole started working at the Well of Life Center in September 2020 as a Clinician in Training.

“I quickly saw the warmth and healing at the Well of Life and was invigorated to be joining a team in the mission to heal our friends, families and communities.”

Hear Nicole’s Heart

“I love to work with women with gut health issues! Though so many people are struggling with digestive issues, it can be uncomfortable to talk about, therefore we suffer in silence!! Just because many of us have the same issue, does not make it normal. I want to provide answers for the mysterious gut symptoms, bringing balance to our gut integrity and our daily lives!”

Fun Fact About Me: 

I am one of 10 children!

Favorite Quote:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

 

-Thoedore Roosevelt

Nicole’s Favorite Bible Verse:

“So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen.” 

-Corinthians 4:16-18
