Dr. Nicole Smith PharmD

I am an intuitive health design coach and licensed pharmacist with a passion for helping people understand their health on a deeper, more personal level. I earned my Doctor of Pharmacy degree from NOVA Southeastern University which gave me a strong foundation in evidence-based medicine and clinical science. My work bridges the best of traditional healthcare with emerging, individualized approaches to wellness. I specialize in combining conventional genetic testing with Human Design to uncover how each person’s unique biology, energy, and decision-making patterns influence their health. Rather than one-size-fits-all recommendations, I focus on creating personalized health strategies that align with both your genetics and your natural design. By integrating scientific insight with intuitive awareness, I support clients in developing sustainable habits, greater self-trust, and a clearer understanding of how their bodies function best. My approach is thoughtful, empowering, and rooted in the belief that true health comes from honoring both data and intuition.
