176: Reflecting and Goal Setting - End-of-Year Check-In podcast
As another year draws to a close, it's a perfect moment to pause, reflect, and conduct an end-of-year check-in and goal setting for the new year. This powerful practice allows you to assess your personal growth, celebrate accomplishments, and gain clarity on areas that need improvement.
Self-reflection is a powerful tool for personal growth. It allows you to gain a deeper understanding of your thoughts, actions, and emotions, enabling you to make informed decisions for your personal development. By taking the time to look back on your journey, you can celebrate your successes, learn from your challenges, and gain clarity on the direction you want to take moving forward.

161: The Role of a Health Coach: Empowering Wellness and Holistic Transformation
In today's fast-paced world, where health and wellness have taken center stage, people are increasingly seeking support to improve their lifestyle and overall well-being. One essential figure that has gained prominence in recent years is the health coach.
In this episode Nikki talks about how health coaches are professionals dedicated to guiding individuals on their journey towards better health and wellness and the core responsibilities of a Health Coach.
** A health coach is not a medical practitioner but rather an expert in the field of wellness and behavior change. They work with individuals on a one-on-one or group basis, providing personalized support to help clients identify and achieve their health goals. A health coach takes a holistic approach, considering all aspects of a person's life, including nutrition, physical activity, stress management, sleep, and emotional well-being.

157: Is Wellness Culture Making Us Sick
** Trigger Warning for this episode! Disordered eating and orthorexia are talked about.
Orthorexia is a moral or righteous fixation on consuming “pure” and “clean” foods.
Everywhere now a days and especially online with celebrities and social media influencers seem to be talking about a detox or cleanse they are doing. But what actually are they detoxing from and why do they actually need to do a cleanse? This episode sheds light on a new way to look how "clean" eating and living "toxin free" can actually be hurting some people.
There is a rise in disordered eating among females aged 35+ and women well into their 40's, 50's, and 60's that never had any issues before.
Also in this episode Nikki talks about her own personal experience with following the Medical Medium protocols and jumping on the celery juice bandwagon.
Nikki encourages everyone to listen to their own bodies and remember everyone is different.
