The Gathering
How the pressure builds — chronic pain, the roles we over-give to, the warnings we talk ourselves out of hearing.

Nicole's Story
She didn't set out to heal anyone. She set out to survive.
Living with chronic pain, Nicole was told what her life would look like — smaller, slower, medicated. Then a season of upheaval hit like weather she couldn't out-plan, and the life she'd been holding together came apart.
On the mat at the Southwest Institute of Healing Arts in Tempe, she found something the prescriptions never gave her: a way into stillness deep enough that the pain quieted and she could finally breathe. That single discovery became a calling.
In 2017 she founded Nicole Anne Yoga & Holistic Wellness™ on a simple promise — bring the zen to you. Today it's an award-winning practice of 100+ practitioners serving hospitals, schools, companies, and homes across Arizona. It Took a Typhoon is the story underneath all of it.
