On your day of public revealing will you be ready? Sometimes our public revealing happens before we have time enough to prepare for it.

In my life, there were many Goliaths in my life that I had to be “David” to in order to overcome my circumstances. I had to develop a S.O.S. mindset, a mindset that confirms my Success outweighs Statistics! The recognition that GOD gave me dominion and power to conquer being shackled to my circumstances, I was the perfect storm plagued by crisis… Divorcee, Single Mother, Living Paycheck to Paycheck, No Support System, Unfamiliar Territory, underserved and lost without a plan!

I made a choice! I am not a statistic! I found my purpose, my gift, my walk in life and set out to build a legacy that would leave my mark on this world. Poised for greatness, I defeated the odds by understanding that I CHOOSE… Success over Statistics! ,

Success outweighs Statistics is pays tribute to the plan and path I set out to regain my footing as a Woman of Possibilities, Purpose & Power!

HOPE * LEARN * LIVE * This is my legacy in the making!

Nicole and her PWG waged a war against infant mortality in Memphis, TN through a themed project titled M:i MEMPHIS which incorporated the idea of the movie Mission Impossible.

Nicole and her Professional Women’s Group project has reached more than 2500 Memphis moms, dads and families.

Nicole has since the completion of the community action project, formed the Infant Mortality Force Memphis, a grassroots organization devoted to the continuation of educating the Memphis community on the preventative measures to this disparity. “I will continue in the fight against Infant Mortality because I realize that I have to be the change that I want to see and change has no season,” said Nicole.

The rate infant mortality rate in Memphis is the highest in the United States. African American babies in Memphis die at a rate three times higher than the national average. Memphis’ infant mortality rate is higher than the nations of Iran Indonesia, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Syria and Vietnam.

Nicole is the Founder of the Infant Mortality Force Memphis, now led by Marcy Vaughn & Yolanda Gates. Nicole now serves as the Shelby County Office of Early Childhood & Youth Infant Mortality Campaign Coordinator, helping to lead Shelby County in educating the communities most in need.
