Behind the stories
Hello, I'm Noelle Nicole
I'm from Austin, Texas (and proud of it!) but have lived in Mexico, Spain, and now Colorado for the last five years. We have a small homestead in the rocky mountains, and have raised everything from rabbits and horses to goats and pigs. Currently, we have three horses, a flock of chickens, two dogs and four cats.
As the mother of a blended family with five kids in total who are all homeschooled, a real estate investor, an entreprenuer, and the boss lady on our small ranch, I've been busy. Slowing down sounds pretty good to me right now.
I started this blog as a way to help other women find their way to financial freedom and success, and to help them manifest the lives of their dreams. I want to show the muck and the glitter of my own jouney. If I can do it, so can you!
This is also a safe space to share how I have grown and healed through trauma to create a life that is abundant and magical.
If you are interested in paving your path to financial freedom, homeschooling or unschooling, travel with kids, positive parenting in traditional or blended families, or releasing trauma to manifest your dreams, then this is the place for you.
Let’s be friends!

Where this all began
My wonderful husband and I got together almost seven years ago and blended families just before our daughter was born two years later. Our kids are besties which makes things easy within our home, but the external forces have been difficult to deal with.
My childhood was not a gentle road, either. I grew up in an alcoholic home until my dad got sober when I was 11. The next decade was no easier than the first with my dad attempting to find himself without the booze, struggling with my own addictions and mental health, an eating disorder, and a physically abusive boyfriend who I left home to live with at 16. Somehow, I saw life with him as less painful than being at home. It took putting him in jail to get away from him, but for a long time I blamed myself for how I was treated. I no longer carry any of that blame.
I had my first miscarriage at 21 and my son was born a year later, two weeks after my graduation from college. Since then, I've learned so much about myself, about healing, about friendship and loss, about toxic relationships and setting boundaries, about parallel parenting with unhealthy people, about the complexities of navigating single motherhood, blended motherhood, and motherhood in general, and about pure unconditional love through my children.
I continuously work on myself. I have healed so much pain; I manifested a life I thought only existed in dreams. I have grown so much, and I am still growing.
I built myself up from being a single mom on welfare to attaining true financial freedom, funding all my own global travel. I prioritize self-care and family time.
One of my greatest joys comes from teaching and helping others. This is true for my children, but it is also why I am dedicated to helping other women in many different ways: as a healer, coach, and instructor.
These are the stories of how I got to where I am and how it's going. The good and the bad. The ups and the downs.
