Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Nicole Powell understands the importance of developing resilience and emotional strength in our young people, and brings what she has learned to her writing for children and parents. After many years of working with children, Nicole became concerned at the lack of emotional education received by our youth. Many seemed ill-equipped to skillfully negotiate everyday schoolyard conflicts, which resulted in them grappling with painful emotions such as sadness, fear, frustration and anger, with a very limited skill set and often alone. It became evident that children can carry this limited skill set into their adult years leaving them poorly equipped to deal with life’s inevitable challenges. As a result, Nicole created The Bounce Back Series and Ever Felt Different? These books are designed to empower children and provide them with the strategies they need to overcome adversity and be resilient when facing life’s challenges. They encourage children to cultivate a sense of kindness and forgiveness towards themselves and others, and to view mistakes simply as opportunities for learning. In order to achieve these goals, children need self-respect and respect for others. They also need to understand the emotions that drive their lives. They can then learn to work with these powerful forces rather than hide from them, pretend they don’t exist, or be their passive recipients. By encouraging children to understand their emotions and take responsibility for themselves and their choices, they will eventually become the drivers of their own destinies and enjoy an increased sense of confidence, freedom, and empowerment. This gives them the most valuable reward of all: the opportunity to create a life they can love. Nicole has undergraduate qualifications in education and health sciences and has completed her post-graduate qualifications in psychology and family counseling. She is currently employed as a paramedic and a children's meditation teacher. She is also a wife and mother, foster carer, author and wildlife rescuer among other things. In her spare time she loves hiking and spending time in nature.
