Friendships are built on chuckles, some are built on shared interests and then there exist those rare unshakeable bonds that feel more like fate. These friendships work their way into people’s lives as destiny’s strings intertwine themselves into the mundane of daily life. That is the kind of bond that Gabrielle Union-Wade and Nicole Lyn share, a friendship so deep that blurs the line between kin and chosen family.

Nicole and Gabrielle have been close for years, not just as industry peers, but as ‘soul sisters’ who have traversed life’s highs and lows together. The two celebrate each other’s wins, stand as a beacon of support in their moments of need, and imperatively, just exist side by side. When you look into their bond, it is clear that this is a friendship built on something real—love, loyalty, and an understanding that goes beyond words.

24th February was Nicole Lyn’s birthday. Gabrielle Union-Wade took to Instagram to wish her friend a happy birthday. “Happy birthday@mrs_nix. Till the wheels or my wig falls off!” she wrote. But don’t think this clever caption for a birthday wish is all Gabrielle has written for her ‘soul sister’. When you share a bond as deep as these two’s you partake in a lot of each other’s endeavors.

In that vein, when Nicole wrote her book, Agent You: Show Up, Do Work, and Succeed on Your Own Terms, guess who wrote the foreword? Yup, it was Gabrielle who penned the foreword. She did more than hype up her friend — she honored her journey through life. Gabrielle’s words were a glowing endorsement, yes, but they went beyond that. Her words were a love letter to Nicole’s strength, resilience, and the sheer brilliance she brings to anything she does! Let us know the book better.

Gabrielle Union-Wade And Agent You: A Book That Speaks Volumes

Nicole Lyn wrote the book as a medium to help individuals. She intended the book as a powerful guide to take control of their own narrative and to create the life they want. Nicole shares her insights on personal branding, building confidence, and creating the mindset that is required in order to thrive in any environment perceivable. Nicole’s words encourage the readers to embrace their authenticity, do work, and step into the power they possess. It is a reflection of the principles she has lived by— ones that have fueled her success in both her life and career.

The individual she chose to write the foreword for her book was none other than her close friend Gabrielle Union Wade. She did justice to the bond they shared and shone a light on the wisdom she possesses. She veins the foreword by stating, “In this book, Nicole reveals her incredible journey and how she got where she is today.” This beautifully penned foreword sets the tone for the narrative that delves into Nicole’s path beginning from her challenging upbringing to her achievements as a top sports agent.

Gabrielle and Nicole’s friendship is a testament to the power of sisterhood—the kind that is true. The kind that stands true to the saying Joy shared is joy doubled, shared sorrow is sorrow halved. In a world that can often feel fleeting, their bond is proof that some connections are built to last.
