In this episode, Nikou shares her show with The Cosmic Love Antenna podcast, hosted by Harrison Maegher. Their conversation about love and energy reflects the mission statements of both podcasts, hence the simulcast.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• A big part of The Cosmic Love Antenna podcast is about love in everything that we do. This is where we first connected, in seeing love in everything.
• You reflect the idea of building a powerful community.
• From the age of 0 to 7 is where the subconscious mind is being programmed. Every experience and every relationship informs your future character.
• Children watch everything, my son mimics the words I use. If I speak lovingly, he speaks lovingly, if I yell, he yells. They soak us up like a sponge, we establish a lot of their belief systems. It's our job as adults to be very aware of the energy that we bring when we talk to a child. Don't be angry when they do something wrong.
• I had incredible opportunities given to me because my parents wanted me to have a better life than they did. But through some things I witnessed and experienced I became an emancipated minor in my early teens and lived on my own and supported myself while I was at school.
• At that time I was eating poor foods and poor foods wreaked havoc on your internal system – the energetic, emotional and mental being. Damaging the gut affects every other aspect of your system because the gut is connected to everything. It affects your mood, thoughts, ability to make clear decisions, and confidence.
• I was literally full of poop, I was not eliminating. I got pent up and wasn't releasing. I felt anxious and like I had no control and that caused depression. 
• Each chakra has a masculine and a feminine side. Getting shit done and not letting go or receiving is a masculine energy. Look at the balance in your life from a gut perspective, where can you release and rest?
• I became fearful of eating because it was making me bloated and I was modelling so that wouldn't go down well. I became fearful of food. The bloating then became acne, which became cystic acne, which became depression because I didn't like the way I looked, that led me to anxiety as I did more to become accepted. The bad bacteria built up in my gut and I got SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth) and even when I was eating healthy food I was bloating until I looked like I was 5 months pregnant.
• It took doctors 18 years to diagnose my CIBO. You can either take three weeks of antibiotics or do what I did, which was create a protocol that includes nutrition, exercise and mindfulness. Within 5 weeks I healed myself of CIBO.
• The attracting of negative vibrations makes us feel like the victim. But you're attracting it so you can see it within you and come to a state of health. Once we can see where we're at, we can start to move forward.
• I'm always asked what are the keys to success and selling a successful business. It's three things: attitude, mentality and work ethic. You don't have to work really hard all day, you just need to be willing to do the things others won't. But you won't get there if you don't have the work ethic to form new habits.
• The best coach, practitioner that we have is inside of us and when it speaks we should listen. Not every ‘diet' works for every human being. It's about your context and what your body needs at the moment. It's all changeable, you shouldn't make it your lifestyle.
• Get out in nature and into the sun in as little clothes as possible, the vitamin D will give you a sense of security, safety, support, self-care and self-love that you need as a foundation upon which the rest of your body thrives. There's a direct correlation between being able to get out in the sun and your mood.
• We have no control over the past, obsessing over the past leads to depression… though the future leads to anxiety!
• What we don't heal in ourselves, we pass on to others. This is why we get depressed when we spend time around depressive people. But you need to look at what you're feeling and why and where you're feeling it. It's likely this is triggering something in you that you also need to heal. These are hallmarks of something that's passed down generationally.

BEST MOMENTS

‘One of the places in the body where the ego is formed is in the gut – the solar plexus.'

‘If you've shifted out of an unpleasant childhood, standing in this power brings a lot of new elements and opportunities. But everything needs balance, not enough power or too much requires balance.'

‘Years of surviving and living in flight or fight meant that I wasn't resting from the age of 15-27. I wasn't sleeping or digesting.'

‘Shame and guilt vibrate at the lowest frequency, the universe gives back the same vibrations to you.'
