SPEAKER | COACH | AUTHOR
Hi, I’m Nicole Smithee
I speak at digital and in-person events helping others experience Jesus, grow in their faith and discover their purpose.
I co-founded Seek First Resources to help you spend more time with God, dive deeper into reading your Bible and prayer, and help you discover the beauty and benefits of daily journaling.
Through personalized coaching, I help others lead bravely and boldly without sacrificing their health and wellbeing. I also help communicators find their voice and connect authentically with their audiences.
About Seek First Resources
Seek First Resources is here to help you spend more time with God, dive deeper into reading the Bible, and discover the beauty and benefits of daily journaling.
Seek First Resources offers free devotionals, scripture reading and prayer, and resources to help you, your friends, and family grow in your consistency and get the most out of your time reading scripture, praying and journaling. We’ve also just released the 3-month Seek First Journal to help you stay consistent in your daily Bible reading and prayer time, keep track of how the Lord is speaking to you, and also better organize your sermon and/or Bible study notes.
Speaking Engagements
For the last 20 years, have been speaking at digital and in-person events, conferences, and weekend church services– such as Lakewood Church, Follow Conference, Grace City Church, Oasis Church, Liberty Church, Never the Same, She Rises Conference, She is Free Conference — with audiences including church congregations, pastors and ministry leaders, Christian women, youth and young adults, as well as entrepreneurs. Most recently, I have been featured as a regular Bible teacher for the YouVersion Guided Scripture of the Day.

ABOUT ME
I have spent over 20 years building the local church and speaking at conferences, churches, and events around the world. I first served in executive leadership at Oasis Church in Los Angeles, California, and continue to serve in executive leadership at Liberty Church Global in NYC. In 2018, I co-founded Iridescent Women, to equip and empower women to flourish, and served as its CEO for five years. I am the co-author of Brilliance Awakened: 21 Devotions to Embrace Your God-Given Potential.
I most recently co-founded Seek First Resources with my husband Ben to help followers of Jesus develop spiritual rhythms to seek the Lord and His Kingdom first each and every day.
I am passionate about helping leaders thrive in their calling, and provide personal and practical coaching and community for Christian leaders. I also provide communication coaching for pastors, ministers, and public speakers.
I live in Dallas, Texas, with my husband and our daughter Quinn. They remain my greatest joy and first priority. In my spare time, I enjoy quality time with friends and family, getting lost in a good book, being active, and exploring new places.
