Nicole Schneider (Senior Trainer)

Trainer's Statement

Nicole Schneider is wonder woman, and nothing could destruct me….so I thought.

Global NLP Training was started somewhere on the floor between my bathroom and my bed one night in back in 2004. I collapsed, and couldn’t get up. It was positively the best day of my life.

What I did not mention, that on that night on the floor, I had a deep and profound sense thatI was going to be OK! I had no clue how though, just that I had to follow that special voice inside my head. Unfortunately, the universe doesn’t drop a carefully laid out master plan in your lap ready for flawless execution. Things initially just got harder. One of my most amazing friends whom unfortunately is no longer with us, once said: “Some days you are the statue, other days you are the pigeon.” I was the statue a lot.

I lived one day at a time. What can I do today to make myself feel a little better? Some days I did good, some days I got feedback as to how to do different. And then I did. Initially one painful step at the time. Later one magnificent leap, after the other.

Now, I am here, in some ways for the first time even though I am nearly 40 years old. Today. Free of Chronic Fatigue. Free of obesity. Just free! I passed my 100 pound weight loss goal in November 2010. And I am currently in training to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, do 3 times a week cardio, and 3 times a week resistance training. A schedule that I have maintained foryears now, even during NLP Training by getting up each day at 6 AM or even earlier. NLP not only saved my life, it helped me evolve to a point beyond where I’d ever been before.

The way I learned the tools since I was 14 years old did not fix me in 8 minutes, not NLP, nor psychology, coaching and personal development training. And yet, I know it can. I eventually figured that out on my own, through much trial and error when I was on my recovery path. NLP can achieve the most amazing of results provided it is taught in the right way, by the right trainers, with focus on personal evolution and change! With that in mind I created the Global NLP Training program, to move people from a place where they are stuck, to a place where they have choice and can propel themselves forward. Where my students feel that if they commit to me as their trainer, I will commit to them. That means I give all of myself when I improve the program with each class, educate, when I do live demonstrations of intense interventions, and also when it is time to celebrate. It is important, that I hug each of my students at the end of their amazing experience, so I can personally thank them for allowing me to be part of their evolution. For them to make the world a better place because they leaped to learn tools to change themselves and change others. There will never be a need in Global NLP Training for a name tag, even though we have been selling out each training for a long time now.

Sometimes students expect me to come to work in a suit, or be older (ok, ok, they used to expect me to be older), be my male co-trainers assistant, a serious stuffy therapist, or to be very “teachery.” I believe too many of us, had teachers like that. They taught us how to pass tests (or feel bad when we didn’t), not to apply and retain useful information. I believe the brain can only learn when it is having fun, when the body is comfortable, and when the mind feels energized to learn more. I want my students to wake up each morning, looking forward to coming and participating in class each day! And one of the ways to achieve that is to make sure I come to class excited about the day that is about to come. A Global NLP Trainer needs to be on top of their NLP game from a technical and application point of view. It also has to be their life purpose to stand there, they have to love their job, and be passionate about change! And I want our students to feel that, and luckily they do! I am part of an amazing team.

Not only am I passionate about the learning and evolution of my students. I am passionate about running a values based company, where the amazing people whom are part of Team Global love to go to work. Where people have your back, instead of stabbing it. I want them to go to work each day, feeling loved, supported, excited about who they spend their day with and know that they are there to fulfill their purpose. Also their families and their personal well being are extremely important to me. I also know what I want, and I want the best. I want super skilled people with integrity whom get results! (Also, they need to know how to have fun.)

Through Global NLP Training, I have met such amazing wonder beings, some I call students, some fellow Team Global members, some friends, some are part of my very intimate small circle of people I love deeply. I am living my purpose, and love what I do. And of course where I do it, after all when I built Global NLP Training I thought I may as well do it in places where I love to spend time. I have been shown so much love, and stood on sacred ground baring witness to amazing transformations and learning of my students. And learned and transformed myself because of it.
