Award Winning Influencer & Podcaster, International Speaker, and Women Empowerment Advocate Nicole Walker, is a determined leader on a mission to empower businesses and inspire Women of Color around the globe. As a former teen parent, Nicole had to face many hurdles, yet her relentless drive and ambition led her to not only finish high school but to also earn a Master's degree as well as certifications in business analysis, training, instructional development/design, and project management. Equipped with this array of valuable knowledge, Nicole’s main focus is helping others understand the importance of effective leadership and having a healthy mindset for optimal performance.

I like to think that I’m every woman. I’m a mom, a wife, a minister, an entrepreneur, an activist, a speaker, a consultant, a strategist…just to name a few hats I wear.

I like to take on new personal challenges and reach for greatness in everything I embark on.
