“Absolutely thrilled to share my experience with Dr. Nicole. She recently spoke at our team offsite meeting. Her engaging presentation style kept everyone captivated, and she provided us with real, actionable tools we can immediately implement.

“Bert's Big Adventure, an Atlanta-based nonprofit that works with children with terminal and chronic illnesses, asked Dr. Nicole to lead a session/workshop to kick off our annual staff conference. Our goal was to work with our group of 20 volunteers to set a mindful tone for the remainder of the conference but also leading into our annual journey to Walt Disney World. Honestly, if you are considering it, run-don't-walk! We learned so much.”
— Molly D.; Bert’s Big Adenture
“I used Atlanta Wellness Collective for a "Wellness Wheel" workshop for my workplace. Dr. Nicole and Hannah were awesome to work with; super responsive, informative, and willing to tailor the workshop content to our exact company needs. The workshop content was very helpful and relevant, I would recommend to any corporate team!”
