Nicole Marden is contemporary country singer/songwriter born and raised in a small town in Northern California. Her love for catchy pop melodies and evoking emotion through story telling has lead her down a path she never imagined. Unlike many musicians, Nicole started her musical journey as an adult which made the journey a bit more challenging. She dove head first into mastering the art of songwriting through all avenues she could run down after a huge life change. The following years were spent with endless hours of voice, guitar, theory and absorbing all the knowledge and experience she could get. She truly feels music is a therapy, whether making it or consuming it and hopes her music can be a soundtrack to others stories. She wants to inspire women, no matter what age to love themselves more than ever and chase their passions regardless of the pressure of social norms. In addition to writing and performing, Nicole is a huge animal lover at heart. She can't imagine life without a dog by her side.

On today’s episode, I talk with Anel Aguirre, who is the host of The brave in Her Podcast. She was born with kidney disease and felt alone most of her life. The Brave in Her Podcast was inspired by her kidney disease journey and was created to help other women through their struggles. I loved getting to hear her story as it was so inspiring and a reminder of my "why" behind this podcast.  Her why behind her podcast is the same as mine... encouraging women to share their stories.

Today on my podcast, I chatted with my 11-year-old daughter Aubrey, about graduating from Elementary School and doing Showmanship with her 4H Club. My daughter is very shy and has been her whole life, but putting her in 4H is helping her overcome her fear of speaking in front of people. She also talks about her experience going back to school after a pandemic and some of her fears of going into Middle School next year. It doesn't matter what age you are, we all go through hard things. Each one of our stories can help motivate and empower each other!
