During high pressure situations, it can be difficult to try to maintain composed and think through ways to maintain safety and de-escalate/disengage. My favorite take-away from the session was the simplified approach to disengaging safely. Unfortunately, Real-Life dangers don’t give us the time to pause and evaluate/think through what to do, so having a quick strategy to use can be so important. As an APIDA ERG Leader, I can say we are so proud to have been part of making this session happen and look forward to our future collaborations!

Nicole was amazing – she listened to everything we wanted to cover and did a fantastic job. We could not be more pleased with her presentation. In fact, she mentioned if we got a group of women together we could arrange sessions at a nearby location. I actually have a High School daughter and would love to do something like this with her friends. Thank you for all your help assisting.

“Nicole is an incredible professional who is able to captivate an audience, communicate a message and inspire women to take control of their own body and mind and use them both to stay safe.  She leads with passion and integrity and is able to motivate and convince women that they don't have to feel afraid while giving them practical tips to react if required. I highly recommend her work to anyone who wants to feel empowered and learn how to stay safe.”

Loved how easy it was to learn the self defense moves and loved her real life experience samples. Everything was great.

 I just wanted to say a huge thank you for setting all of this up. Everyone who was able to attend learned SO much and cannot stop talking about how great Nicole was. In fact, the head of our company will be reaching out to set up a session for her daughter and friends! Just wanted to let you know how well it went and how grateful we all are, especially me!

The UNIDOS team was excited to attend the Safety, Assertiveness, Violence Prevention and Empowerment (S.A.V.E.) by Nicole Snell! The presentation provided valuable information and tips to increase safety and awareness in potentially life threatening situations. It was very insightful to learn the many ways an individual can increase safety without having to resort to physical action and how increased awareness and body language play a large role in increasing your safety. The presentation was very interactive and a fun way to learn important tips that can help not just you but your family and community. Our favorite parts included the reminder that setting boundaries does not make you mean or rude and is often a necessity and the continuous engagement on the call. The chat was booming with discourse which made the session fun and entertaining!

Nicole was very relatable and knowledgeable. I know this training isn't strictly for women but I always love seeing women empowering and helping each other.

I personally struggle a little with the term "girl" for myself or when it is used refer to women in a patronizing way, and was wondering if the session would be somewhat gendered due to the Girls Fight Back branding. However, this concern was unfounded and I'm really glad I attended this workshop. I hugely appreciated the gender inclusive language throughout (e.g. referring to attackers/body parts in a neutral way, mentioning someone in the chat as "they" and not assuming pronouns). Thank you, Nicole!

The program went great and Nicole was terrific. I was very satisfied with her. I loved the question-and-answer portion of the event, as you could really see how interested people were and how important this sort of education is to so many.  Nicole was nice enough to stay on the call after our allotted time as there were many who still wanted to ask more questions of her. I would definitely recommend this session to others in my industry, and hope to use her again myself. I got a lot of positive feedback from people who attended the call, and one person said it was “the best session she’s been on” at our company regarding these voluntary events.

The program was awesome! I am very satisfied with Nicole’s presentation – she was super engaging and hit on so many different topics related to self-defense and awareness. I liked how she would ask questions and do little activities to encourage active participation. I don’t think anything seemed out of place. There was enough time for Q&A and she was willing to stay longer until all questions were asked, which was appreciated. I would 1000% recommend her to colleagues!

“Amazing!” “Fantastic!” “Incredibly helpful!…I feel more aware, safer and confident already.” These are just a few examples of the feedback we received from Nicole Snell’s virtual workshop about her S.A.V.E program. Nicole is able to bring in and keep her audience captive throughout the entire presentation (even virtually!) with her approach to educate us on ways to practice Safety, Assertiveness, Violence prevention and Empowerment. We had non-stop opportunities to interact with each other through conversation and chat and to physically practice her techniques; she was stellar at helping us realize we were in a safe space. I’m stunned by the amount of activity we had in our chat tool and people speaking up to share their experiences and ask questions. Thank you Nicole!

I loved Nicole’s presentation and really appreciated her energy and positive messaging.  I came home repeating “NO! Stay Back! I don't want any trouble!” and my family looked at me like I was nuts... But they thought it was cool once I explained. :-) Thank you again!

I can’t thank you enough for the wonderful training you provided us yesterday!
 
We had the second part of our conference this morning, and we began with reflections on yesterday’s training, and the feedback that we got from our staff was so positive. Everyone found the training super timely, informative, useful, engaging, entertaining, safe, inclusive, and more.
 
Thank you so much for also taking the time to have our staff share their own stories and experiences, and just making it a positive and empowering experience.

I really enjoyed how interactive Nicole’s presentation, “Safety, Assertiveness, Violence Prevention and Empowerment” was. She was energetic, passionate & captivated the audience effectively, while conveying the trauma-informed & evidence-based strategies in a way that were easily understood. I could tell Nicole was an expert on the materials presented & she was very “real” with us, sharing her own personal experiences.  Never did I think I would feel so empowered on a Teams call, just holding my hands in front of my face & repeating after Nicole, short, assertive, to the point, sentences; a verbal de-escalation technique for managing real world situations, such as when a stranger may be approaching & my intuition is saying “I don’t feel safe”.  I left the event with tools to manage my safety, set boundaries unapologetically & recognize manipulators. I am looking forward to using “No” as a complete sentence, without explanation or apology.   Nicole educated & reminded us, it is a complete sentence, it’s setting a personal boundary & does not require an apology.
