Author Nicole Adler: With Love As Her Compass

Join Nicole Adler — author, advocate, and host of The No No Show — for an inspiring afternoon of storytelling, conversation, and connection at Redwood City Public Library.

Although Nicole travels from coast to coast sharing her message of inclusion and love, she proudly calls Redwood City home. As the first Grand Marshal with Down syndrome at San Francisco Pride and a two-time governor-appointed member of the California State Council on Developmental Disabilities, Nicole has spent more than a decade using her voice to uplift others and create change.

Her new book, With Love as Her Compass, chronicles her journey as a leader and advocate, offering a message of courage, compassion, and the power of love to guide us forward.

During this special author presentation, Nicole will share stories from her life, read an excerpt from her book, and invite the audience to reflect on how sharing our own stories can inspire understanding and advocacy. A Q&A and book signing will follow. Books can be purchased at the book signing. 

Come be inspired to find your voice, tell your story, and lead with love.

Light refreshments will be served.  In the Fireplace Room. 

Nicole Adler is a dynamic professional speaker, human rights advocate and host of The No No Show on YouTube. She has spent more than a decade inspiring audiences and advancing the human rights of ALL people, with a special focus on the intersection of disability and LGBTQ+ identities. In 2024, Nicole made history as the first Grand Marshal with Down syndrome at San Francisco Pride and on October 1, 2025 she released her deeply authentic biography, With Love As Her Compass, that chronicles Nicole’s life as a bold self-advocate, a queer woman with a disability, and a national human rights champion. From her earliest days as a two-time Governor-appointed member of the California State Council on Disabilities to traveling America with her message of inclusion, Nicole’s story is both a celebration and a call to action.
