Ester Nicholson, author of Soul Recovery - 12 Keys to Healing Dependence is a speaker, recovery coach, recording artist, and recovering addict who brings her incredible journey of transformation to a practical curriculum—addressing the root causes of dependence as they occur in contemporary living.

Her Soul Recovery programs expand the traditional concept of 12 Step Recovery into spiritual practices that have served thousands.

A gifted vocal artist, Nicholson’s musical career includes worldwide tours with Rod Stewart and Bette Midler with appearances on such television shows as Oprah, The Tonight Show, The View, Good Morning America and The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Ester has inspired thousands with her keynotes at conference events including:
