Why I Write
Hi, I’m Nicole.
For years, I poured my energy into serving others: my country, my family, my community. But somewhere along the way, I stopped hearing my own voice. Like many women, I wore strength like armor while quietly losing touch with who I truly was.
Writing became the way back.
It started as a whisper, a healing process… and grew into a powerful calling.
I write for the woman who’s forgotten her worth.
I write for the woman who’s been strong for too long.
I write for the woman who needs permission to rise.
These books aren’t just messages. They’re mirrors — calling out the queen within every reader.
If you’re ready to reclaim your identity, your purpose, and your crown — these pages are for you.
With love and truth,
Nicole B. Gebhardt

The Queen’s Companion Book
Through a fateful and almost fatal fall down the stairs, Nicole began a journey of self-exploration that led her to overcome grief, addiction, and unworthiness. Not wanting to accept negative titles, she shook off the victim persona, met struggles head on, and ultimately rose to claim her virtual crown as a “Bad-Ass Queen.”
