Nichole is the PERFECT person to be the first face people see when they come into the Administration Building here at Odyssey House! She goes above and beyond and greets EVERYONE who enters our building with a warm, genuine smile and friendly, positive attitude, even on the days I know she is struggling with things outside of work or not feeling well. She is always ready to lend Khymm (or anyone for that matter!) a helping hand. Whenever she is out, this place just isn't the same! Her compassion and friendliness is genuine and never, ever fake; that is what I love most about her. She is hilarious and always keeps the mood here upbeat and positive.
Something that meant a lot to me recently, was when I was out for a couple weeks due to some ongoing, chronic health issues I had been struggling with. When I was finally feeling well enough to come back to the office, I was greeted by Nichole in the best way possible; she welcomed me back and actually noticed I had been gone. She showed genuine concern and asked how I was feeling, while listening and lending a compassionate ear. And I have noticed she is like this with everyone here! She notices and genuinely cares about all of her coworkers here at Admin. and staff all over Odyssey House! No matter how busy she is, she takes the time to really talk to everyone and in my opinion, that builds a feeling of belonging and family here at Odyssey House. As long as OH keeps hiring people like Nichole who genuinely care about people and genuinely promote what being in this industry is all about, we will always be the safe place people can come to, to learn how to love themselves and build a healthy, strong, sober life worth living. In life and especially in recovery, feeling that someone genuinely cares can go a long way.
