About Me

Nicole La Ha Zwiercan

Nicole is passionate about her mission to inspire people to celebrate their triumphs, but also grow stronger from their trials. Together with her family, she hopes to not only be a voice, but a light for other families navigating through the storms of a child's diagnosis...and show that it's OK to have a Different Kind of Perfect. After her daughter received a Cerebral Palsy diagnosis, her mission has never been more important to her. As a Professional Speaker, Certified Life Coach, Writer, and Retired Beauty Queen, Nicole uses her writing to show that we can acknowledge the storms we will undoubtedly will encounter in life, but more importantly, we can choose to celebrate the rainbows. Nicole is a wife and a mother of two. When she's not busy being a soccer team mom, or mommy PT, she works as a reporter for Comcast show Community Connection.
