Have a Good Life

Nicole Colter became an instant mom, when she married a single dad with three children aged 5, 6 and 7.

If that wasn’t enough, over the next 12 years she also built three different businesses without any prior knowledge of, or training in, those industries.

These combined experiences taught her the value of creativity and self-direction. Nicole is now on a mission to cultivate these skills so that all people can thrive in these changing times.

Her shift to education started with her role as a high school service-learning coordinator while completing her Master of Science in Creativity and Change Leadership. She now teaches management at a community college and facilitates workshops to reawaken inborn creativity.

Nicole is currently co-creating an online learning community workshop called Create Your Own School with a team of other educators and teens.
