There’s a big question that many people ask themselves: Do I need help healing? Do I need therapy, a coach, a massage therapist, meds, or a support group? These are difficult questions to answer because of the word "need."

In this episode, we break down the impossibility of trauma dumping on a professional therapist and how to take care of your sweet self with compassion if you recognize that past trauma and struggle seems to flood out at inopportune times. You are worth deep self compassion and emotional self acceptance as you walk your healing journey.

Understanding the value and potential available in a mindful, present, honoring goodbye. Encouragement for counselors and healers to be more forthright in what this work is and how to inspire clients to show up for themselves in healing work.

Humans as spiritual beings vs animals, realities of predators in the population, and how to own our personal power through self defense; Protecting ourselves by stepping into the personal power of our bodies without apology.

Nikki shares a story about meeting Lisa Tahir, Life Coach and Intuitive Therapist in New Orleans and Los Angeles and the moment their work began in perfect awkward anxiety, personal responsibility, & kind patience.

Welcome to the show! My tribe can be described as Emotional Badasses on the path of healing and growth work. I have high hopes that this show grows and spreads emotional education, simple meditation, and grounded psycho-social-spiritual empowerment education through the world. HSPs (Highly Sensitive People), Empaths, Seekers, and Trauma Survivors, and those in addiction and codependency recovery will resonate!
