how do you heal?
I answer -
I write how I feel
I am a poet, artist, survivor, and mom of five who uses bold stories arranged as simple words and curated images to expose the raw pain in loss and betrayal, and the sovereignty to rise up in love.
my debut poetry collection, me to our rescue, is a compilation of poems created to reach those hurting, to love them through healing, and bring them home to their power. the pages have been intentionally designed to read and keep as a book to treasure, or easily remove from the rest to display your favorite poem as art.

"as lonely as a beggar
as misunderstood as a witch..." With such bold simplicity, Nicole Rae's poems and reflections pierce the veil of every woman who has experienced the tension between the longing for salvation and the immediate call for self-empowerment. Whether you read her book or hear Nicole speaking words over women who are in the process of resurrection, you'll experience recognition - and atonement for the soul.

I believe no woman needs to shrink herself to be safe in life. I want my poems to help reignite self-love and a passion for life. I continue to write and speak words of atonement and am available to book for any type of event that empowers women.
