About – Esquino

Hi there and welcome to our family’s little corner of the internet. We’re so happy to have you here. My name is Nicole and I’m a Mom, a Realtor with eXp Realty, a self published Children’s Book Author, and a Yoga Teacher. Whew, many hats – like most mama’s! 😉 Over here you’ll find real-talk and all sorts of fun adventures.

Fun Facts

I’ve been with my husband since 2005. Vic and I have 2 kids – Caleb and Fiona + 2 fur kiddos – Shiner and Rolo.

Reading: I love all genres! Come nerd out with me on Goodreads. This is where I keep track of all the books I’m diving into.

Nutrition: I’m obsessed, for real! I enjoy anything yummy and healthy. And I’m a total recipe collecting junkie, so if ya need a healthy recipe I’m your gal.

Writing: My creative soul and sense of humor is very much that of an 8 year old. So writing down the children’s short stories in my head is a fantastic creative outlet for me. Check out the collection of stories I have written. Listen to Stories.

Vegetables: I seriously haven’t met one yet that I don’t love! I proudly wear my vegetable lover pin.

Simplifying: I’m a major fan of simplifying life to leave more space for happiness and fun. Anything from decluttering to organizing to meal planning is totally my jam!

Former Lives

Former Teacher: I taught elementary and middle school for over 7 years. This completely explains my sense of humor.

Yoga Studio Manager: I was the boss lady at my home away from home, YogaSport Dallas, for 3 years. This is where I met my soul sister Angela Wagner. Come hang out with us on the Spark Inspire Your Life Podcast.

Yoga Teacher: Spreading love and sunshine through yoga is my favorite way to contribute to the world.

Why Real Estate?

Home is my happy place. I strongly feel that home is where all the happy begins. My interest and love for real estate is based in this foundation of helping others find their happy in their new home. I am so looking forward to helping you find your happy and find your home.

Why Writing Books?

I love words. Writing down the stories that live in my head and sharing them with others has been on my bucket list since I was 8 years old. I find peace and joy in the books I read and I hope that I am able to offer that same kind of safe and enjoyable space to others through my words.

Why Yoga?

I’ve always been fascinated by the abilities of the human body. Growing up playing every sport and be very active in gymnastics has led me to a healthy and active lifestyle. Yoga became a huge part of my fitness regiment after I sustained an injury from CrossFitting. I went to yoga to physically heal and while I was there I found a piece of my soul, my tribe. Shortly thereafter I found myself in teacher training at YogaSport and then I was teaching classes. Teaching yoga is my way of connecting and sharing joy with the flow of the world.

Why Podcast?

I love telling stories and chatting, but I never dreamed of doing something like podcasting. As I’ve gotten older I’ve learned that the universe works in interesting ways and when an opportunity appears sometimes you just have to leap into it. No questions asked, just leap and figure it out as you go. And that is exactly how I landed on the Spark: Inspire Your Life podcast. My why for podcasting is very similar to my why for yogaing, except podcasting allows me to spread the joy and sunshine on an even bigger level.

Well thanks for stopping by! And we hope that you will stick around for a while! Cheers, Nicole
