“Nikol’s talk stood out as something special. It was bold, authentic, completely exposed. The experience was one I will long remember, not least of which for the passion Nikol put into her work. Watching & listening to Nikol’s story delivered hope. Nikol’s is a universal story & it’s what she did, the action to get out of the hole she found yourself in that, for me, was the “Ah, ha!”.

“Listening to Nikol speak is nothing short of captivating. She has an energy that is not only contagious, but powerful. She has the ability to make an entire room come alive.”

“We’ve had Nikol speak three times. She is a gifted speaker, bringing an inherent empathy and passion that enables her to connect with her audience in a genuine way. Her talks both uplifted the group and resulted in a vigorous discussion of the subject matter each time, a very important achievement in a Healing Circle format. She also modeled, what is possible when one is open to the power and truth of connecting to one’s heart.”

The one thing that stood out to me personally was your question “What are you trying to do with your art”. As a full time artist I’m always working on the hustle to get the next job. It was refreshing to take a step back and stop thinking about the branding and refocus on what I’m trying to accomplish as an artist. As you said in your segment about target audience, If I’m not finding that deeply passionate point of interest in my work then my consumers aren’t going to be passionate.

Thank you for that reminder and recenter. This was the perfect thing for me to remember as I head out to London next week to meet up with some big producers. Thanks for reminding me that at the core of what I do is art and that everything needs to serve my artistic voice.

I got to experience Nikol’s workshop, and it was filled with amazing insights and inspirational wisdom. She does a great job of helping to create a positive mindset that instills confidence in you and your art. I learned how to build the right relationships and silence my self critic. I left the workshop feeling motivated and strong. I can’t wait to put all of Nikol’s advice into action with my podcast!

Your workshop was certainly a welcomed boost of energy at the end of a long work day! Hearing about your story and how you were able to completely transform your life and career through shifting your mindset and getting clear about what you wanted was very inspiring. When we did the exercise about facing our inner critic, the message I received was about being brave enough to take the leap. Often times, I think of the leap as some big jump, but as you reminded me, it’s more of a slow, focused effort to make a truly lasting change. My biggest takeaway from the workshop was to start focusing on those smaller steps that I can take on a daily basis.

Nikol’s Workshop came to me at a time when I was very much at a crossroads in my professional career. I have been a dancer my entire life and along the way I discovered other passions within the healing arts such as Yoga and Reiki. I was always told to be a successful artist you had to sacrifice financial success. After attending Nikol’s workshop I feel as though the years of stigma surrounded by being an artist have been lifted off my shoulders. I now know I can move into this next chapter of my life fulfilled creatively, spiritually, and financially. Nikol is a breath of fresh air to the artist, creator, and visionary within us all.

“Nikol has taught me so much about how to be more verbally and emotionally expressive in the workplace. I am a family law attorney so I know that for a spouse going through divorce it can be one of the deepest and darkest times in their life and they will be more likely to work with someone who is passionate about their cause and invested in the process. Nikol helps me to realize that this is important not only because it allows me to be more open and genuine with the people who I cross paths with, but it helps me connect with my audience who may be captivated and engaged by what I have to say. I believe what sets Nikol apart from so many of her colleagues and fellow speakers is that she has the rare ability to inspire and see the potential in people that they sometimes fail to see in themselves. It is a true gift and I continue to learn more and more each week from her teachings!”

Nikól Rogers is that rare speaker who can captivate a large audience and make the experience feel deeply personal to each individual. Even rarer is the fact that she speaks as a creative who knows the secrets to fully enjoying your own creativity. I’ve never heard anyone articulate with such wit and wisdom how, within the rollercoaster that is the existence of a fully expressed artist, one can create the greatest work of all: a life centered on inner peace, compassion, and uplifting others. You somehow come away from a talk by Nikól understanding yourself more and ready to be bolder and more authentic.
