Nichole Suvar
Nichole J. Suvar is a writer, speaker, and intentional living coach on a mission to help overwhelmed women embrace God’s design for mental wellness. She partners with several non-profit organizations locally and nationwide to support mental wellness and their faith through meaningful conversations. She and her husband, Paul, live in Indiana with their three teens. You can find Nichole trying in vain to keep the cupboards stocked for her always-hungry teens, hiking a new trail and soaking in the quiet with her husband, or savoring cheddar cheese with pickles like a gourmet meal.
