Nicole Mccauley

Nicole is a multidimensional spaceholder, ceremony keeper, and intuitive guide who crafts sacred containers where the fullness of being is welcomed, witnessed, and set free. With three decades of experience spanning event production, sacred medicine work, and plant-based formulation, she brings grounded presence and passion to every retreat she co-creates. As founder of La Cle’ Wellness, Nicole formulates CBD- and terpene-based healing tools while weaving in her lived wisdom of breath, nature, and ancestral remembering.

These are the energetics she carries into her one-on-one hands on Frequency Alignment Sessions, where homeostasis is gently restored through customized aromatherapy and the application of pure, medicinal-grade essential oils. This nourishing ritual soothes the nervous system, supporting the body’s natural balance and opens the self to remember that you are the medicine—inviting release, renewal, and a deep return to inner harmony.

And as you step into workshop or ceremony space together, she deepens this journey, guiding you to move, touch, intend, visualize, sound, and breath as sacred tools—unlocking blocks, revealing hidden doorways connecting personal intuition to co-creation with the deepest spaces of the subconscious. Shaped by a life lived across continents, Nicole carries a cross-cultural fluency that reaches far beyond any single tradition—tapping into the shared pulse of human experience and the universal longing to heal, connect, and awaken.
