Bio from Nicki: 

Nicki’s journey is one of growth and loss, loss and growth to the point sometimes it feels like she is stuck on repeat.  Life has knocked her down more than once these last few years but these challenges, these struggles, led to her finding her way to the person she is today.  Nicki’s journey has opened her up to sharing her story in the hopes of helping others facing similar challenges. What are these challenges she has faced?  Everything from fertility treatment, divorce, sexual assault, the loss of her mom in 2019 then her brother at the end of 2020.  Her story is about how she survived each of these and is now living her life the best way she knows how, which is one day at a time.  She learned it’s about understanding that grief and trauma don’t end, but that she can still make choices everyday to live her best life. She learned it’s about doing what makes her feel alive, even if other people don’t understand that. She learned it’s okay to live life on her terms and ultimately, that it is okay to be happy, even during difficult times.
