I'm Demet Nicole, the travel advisor behind Pure Essence Getaways, a wellness and lifestyle creator, and a woman learning how to show up for herself in every season.
I share travel, fitness, and the real life in between as I work on getting stronger in the gym, growing my business, seeing more of the world, and enjoying the life I am creating along the way. If you can relate to any of this, you are in the right place.

If you have been thinking about taking a trip but don't have the time, capacity, or desire to plan every detail, I can help.
Through Pure Essence Getaways, I create personalized travel experiences that fit your style, your season of life, and the way you want your trip to feel.
For brand partnerships, work with me
I create UGC and creator partnerships for travel, fitness, wellness, and lifestyle brands that want polished content to still feel natural and relatable. You can expect clear communication, thoughtful ideas, and content that fits naturally into real life.
There is always something going on over here. Between corporate life, running a travel business, getting in the gym, spending time with my people, and trying to enjoy life along the way, I share the things that are part of my everyday world.
I am the travel advisor behind Pure Essence Getaways, and I love helping people turn "we need a trip" into a getaway that actually feels good from start to finish.
Whether it is a couples trip, girls' getaway, family vacation, solo escape, or group trip, I share travel tips, destination inspiration, and the little details that can make a big difference in how your trip feels.
My fitness journey started with a hard conversation with my doctor in 2025. Since then, I've lost more than 40 pounds, gotten stronger, and learned that showing up for myself looks different from day to day.
I'm learning that progress is not only about the number on the scale. It's also about taking better care of myself and being proud of what my body can do.
I have spent more than 20 years building my career, and I am still building. But I am also learning that I do not have to wait for the next promotion, the next relationship, or the next big milestone to enjoy my life.
From Las Vegas life and solo dates to friends, family, entrepreneurship, shopping, and the real-life experiences in between, this is where I share what life looks like beyond the travel plans and gym sessions.
Pure Essence Getaways delivered a seamless luxury trip to the Dominican Republic with excellent communication and thoughtful planning. Demet’s travel knowledge made all the difference. I’m already planning my next trip with her.

Our Hawaii vacation was a dream thanks to Demet. She planned every detail perfectly including personalized welcome notes, in-room birthday decorations for my granddaughter's sweet 16, and wheelchair assistance during an emergency. I highly recommend her thoughtful and expert service.
