Reinvention Room with Allison Hare

Dying for Sex with Executive Producer Nikki Boyer


Listen Later

What would you do if you were told you were dying?

When Nikki Boyer’s best friend, Molly, got a stage 4 cancer diagnosis, she didn’t shut down—she blew her life wide open. And Nikki, an Emmy-winning producer and host, recorded all of it.

In this episode, we talk about Dying for Sex—the wildly popular Wondery podcast and now Hulu series starring Michelle Williams and Jenny Slate. But this is way more than a story about death and sex. It’s about reclaiming your voice, healing old wounds, and choosing to fully live—even when the clock is ticking.

We cover everything from kinky adventures to the kind of grief that cracks you open in the best way. Nikki’s perspective on loss, friendship, intuition, and making space for joy will stay with you long after the episode ends.

If you’re craving deeper conversations, better friendships, or just a little more life in your life—this one’s for you.
