Welcome to my very first episode and an introduction to what my podcast is about.  Life as . . . with Nicki Pike is about my story and the labels I have picked up along the way.  In this first episode I answer two main questions, starting with why am I doing a podcast?  And second, why I named my podcast what I did.

I am starting a podcast because life has kind of knocked me down a few times the last few years and sometimes I didn’t want to get back up.  I want to share my story because the more I have shared it  with the people in my life, the more I have realized how similar we all are.  We are connected through the good and the bad, but for some reason, we only share the good.  My goal is to share my hard so I can help other people through their hard. 

I give you a glimpse into who I am and what made me record this episode and put it out into the world.  I share a few labels I have had the honor of owning and how my hope is, that through my story and through my guests stories, I help each of each of you identify your labels.  My goal is for you to strip away your labels and come face to face with who you are underneath, that beautiful, perfectly imperfect being that deserves to live free.  

I want us to start hitting back against labels together, one story at a time. 

If you want to share your labels and story, I would love to connect and learn more!
