Nicole Sauce
In 2016, Nicole Sauce founded the
Living Free in Tennessee podcast, which blossomed into a strong community of independent individuals who provide mutual support. Often, the community joins forces to jumpstart labor-intensive projects for one another. These shared experiences have served as a foundation for trust and goodwill that permeates the community’s culture. The community of doers spans 50 states and 10 countries, working together to “lift all boats.”
Living Free in Tennessee releases new episodes 3 times per week, and regularly collaborates with the likes of Jack Spirko, John Willis, and more!
Nicole has always been keenly involved in food independence efforts. She founded a
coffee roasting company,
Holler Roast, starting with a cast-iron
skillet and growing to a commercial operation. She also helps people learn hands-on skills such as animal processing, cheese-making, canning, and
gardening.
Nicole founded the
Self Reliance Festival, an event in Camden Tennessee, dedicated to helping people connect, learn important skills, and support each other.
The 2022 Self Reliance Festival is happening on October 1st and 2nd. Get tickets, or register as a vendor here.
Nicole released
Cook With What You Have years ago, and this ebook is still helping people get crafty with cooking to this day! This valuable guide to the science and
art of home cooking starts with one woman’s kitchen
experience and simply removes the mystery from practical cooking.
In previous lives, Nicole has worked as a corporate facilitator, a free-market policy diva, and a marketing and training administrator for a translation and language company. She provides marketing advising.
Nicole lives on a homestead in Tennessee, where she and other community members raise pigs and poultry and provide fellowship, healing, and learning opportunities to like-minded souls seeking to build their lives on their own terms.
