Everything Changes: Navigating Life and Business Seasons


Listen Later

In this episode of The Aligned for Success podcast, Nikki explores the natural rhythms of life and business through the lens of seasons and shares insights about becoming a student of your calendar.

As her practice approaches its 10-year anniversary in September, Nikki reflects on how different seasons of life have shaped her business growth. With her daughter Hazel now 6.5 years old and increasingly independent, Nikki finds herself transitioning from the intensive child-rearing season into a new phase where she can focus more deeply on business expansion. She shares how the exponential growth over the past six years happened while simultaneously raising a young child, proving that we often have more capacity than we realize.

Throughout this thoughtful conversation, Nikki discusses her long-term vision of spending entire summer months with Hazel, recognizing that these seasons of connection are precious and finite. She emphasizes how understanding and accepting your current season—whether it's a push season or a pause-and-reflect season—can make life exponentially easier.

Nikki then introduces David Meltzer's concept of being a "student of your calendar," sharing her observations about how many business owners lack basic awareness of their daily commitments. With refreshing honesty, she admits to scheduling "You need to shower" blocks in her calendar to protect personal time, illustrating the importance of intentional time management.

Drawing from her mirror principle teachings, Nikki challenges listeners to examine whether their own calendar habits might be attracting similar behaviors from patients and colleagues. This episode delivers practical wisdom about embracing life's natural rhythms while taking full ownership of your time and commitments.
