Meet the author
Nicole Burch is a writer, coach, advocate, wife, mother of eight, homeschooler, and unapologetic believer in telling the truth about real life—even when the truth is complicated.
Her writing lives at the intersection of family, faith, marriage, resilience, advocacy, wellness, and the ordinary systems that help people keep going when life refuses to fit neatly into a plan.
Drawing from more than two decades of marriage and parenting, years of caregiving, coaching, homeschooling, marriage recovery, and navigating the criminal justice system alongside her children, Nicole writes from lived experience rather than polished theory. Her work makes room for the good, the hard, the absurd, the deeply painful, and the reality that several of those things can exist at exactly the same time.
She is the author of books and resources including the If Wedding Rings Could… series, Uncooperative as a Mother, Rooted in Justice, Sync, Not By Bread Alone, and Family First Essentials. Across very different subjects, her work shares a common thread: helping people understand where they are, identify what matters, and build practical ways forward without requiring perfection first.
Nicole is also the creator of Fuel Flow and the voice behind Life in the Treehouse, where she writes about food, family systems, parenting, marriage, advocacy, faith, and learning to live well within the life you actually have.
She believes children deserve adults who can hear hard truths, families deserve tools that work in real homes, boundaries can be loving, returning matters more than restarting, and sometimes the most useful thing one person can offer another is an honest account of what they learned the hard way.
She lives in Montana with her husband, their large family, and enough ongoing projects to ensure she is rarely in danger of becoming bored.

If Wedding Rings Could… Series
The If Wedding Rings Could… series explores marriage beyond the vows—the breaking, rebuilding, protecting, reflecting, and redeeming that can happen over a lifetime together. Through honest storytelling, hard-earned lessons, faith, boundaries, and hope, Nicole Burch writes about what it means to keep choosing a marriage without losing yourself inside it.

Family advocacy…Flock first. Fierce always.
My family advocacy books are rooted in a simple conviction: the people we love deserve to be treated like people.
I write about protecting children, supporting a spouse, caregiving, preserving dignity, honoring boundaries, navigating systems, and speaking up when someone you love needs an advocate beside them.
Children deserve adults willing to protect them. Disabled and vulnerable adults deserve dignity rather than being spoken over. Families deserve information, choices, boundaries, and advocates who remember the human being behind the paperwork.
I am an unapologetic advocate for my children, my husband, and my family.
Nobody messes with my people if I can help it.
Sometimes love looks tender.
Sometimes love looks like caregiving.
And sometimes love plants its feet, protects the flock, and gets very comfortable being called uncooperative.

holistic lifestyle
My holistic lifestyle books are about learning to understand and support the body you actually live in. From herbs and essential oils to the hormonal rhythms of a woman’s lifespan, these resources combine practical education, everyday application, and curiosity—helping you build a personal toolkit without turning holistic living into another pursuit of perfection.

Gluten-Free Food & Food Boundaries
My food and cooking books are about making food boundaries feel abundant instead of restrictive. From gluten-free cooking to navigating individual dietary needs, these resources focus on flexible recipes, practical substitutions, nourishing ingredients, and discovering what is possible—because having boundaries around food shouldn’t mean losing flavor, enjoyment, or a seat at the table.

Children’s Books
My children’s books help kids make sense of big experiences through a child-sized lens. These stories give children language for complicated realities while helping them feel seen, informed, and less alone in experiences they didn’t choose.
