  • Where have I been?!

    Nicole, where have you been?! It's been 6 mos. and this episode wasn't planned at all. The suns out, the vibe is right so I decided to step to the mic. I get into what's been happening since I've been gone. Overcoming PTSD, update on friend group therapy, starting therapy, music I've been listening to etc... I really let you guys into my world b/c what is life if not vulnerability?1 Lol. I'm so happy to be back and look forward to the next episode! Thank you for your patience, and for sticking with me! I love y'all.

    Xo,
    Nicole <3
