We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Nicole Holmes. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Nicole below.

Nicole, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. We’d love to hear about a project that you’ve worked on that’s meant a lot to you.

I’ll talk about the Black Joy Parade

Participating in the Black Joy Parade was a deeply meaningful project for my Tribe (community). Not only did it serve as a celebration of Black culture and resilience, but it also provided a platform to raise awareness about the importance of sisterhood within the Black community. Through our involvement, we highlighted the strength and unity found in uplifting and supporting one another. By showcasing diverse expressions of joy, creativity, and solidarity, we fostered a sense of belonging and empowerment among attendees. Our participation in the parade not only celebrated Black joy but also underscored the significance of sisterhood in navigating and overcoming challenges, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and supportive community.

Nicole, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I entered the industry seeking understanding and camaraderie, yearning for a fellow woman who comprehended the challenges I faced. Yet, I also craved enjoyment in my pursuits. As I delved deeper, I realized the pivotal role of having a support system of like-minded women. This realization fueled my passion to create a space where women could gather, share experiences, learn, grow, and uplift each other, all while having fun.

What sets me apart is my commitment to providing a sanctuary where women feel safe to express themselves authentically, free from judgment or societal constraints. I facilitate an environment where laughter and empowerment coexist, where women can let their hair down and forge meaningful connections. My focus isn’t just on professional development but also on personal growth and fostering genuine friendships.

What fills me with pride is the community I’ve nurtured, the bonds that have been forged, and the countless women who have found solace and strength within it. Witnessing the transformation and the blossoming of self-assurance among members is the greatest testament to the impact of our shared journey. Together, we’ve cultivated a culture of love, support, and empowerment, which remains my most cherished achievement.

How did you build your audience on social media?

Certainly! My journey in building an audience on social media began with the creation of a private Facebook group for my Pure Romance business. Initially established to connect with customers and promote my products, the group evolved into a thriving community. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit and I made the difficult decision to close my business, I recognized the continued need for a supportive space where women could come together.

Rather than disbanding the group, I decided to maintain it, pivoting its focus to provide a platform for empowerment, education, and connection. By fostering meaningful discussions, offering valuable insights, and encouraging genuine interaction, the group gradually attracted more members and garnered significant engagement.

My advice for those embarking on the journey of building a social media presence is to prioritize authenticity, consistency, and community-building. Be genuine in your interactions, share content that resonates with your audience, and remain committed to nurturing relationships. Engage with your followers, respond to their comments and messages, and create opportunities for meaningful dialogue. Additionally, stay adaptable and willing to evolve with the changing needs and dynamics of your audience. Building a strong social media presence takes time and effort, but by staying true to your values and focusing on fostering genuine connections, you can cultivate a loyal and engaged audience.

What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?

Absolutely, the driving force behind my creative journey is rooted in the transformative experiences of the women who attend my events. Witnessing testimonials from women who arrive alone but leave feeling supported and connected embodies the essence of my mission. Building a sense of community where individuals can forge genuine friendships, share resources, and uplift each other is at the core of what I do. I am passionate about creating spaces where women feel seen, heard, and empowered to prioritize their health, well-being, and self-care. Seeing the positive impact of these gatherings reaffirms my commitment to fostering a supportive and inclusive environment where women can thrive and grow together.
