On this episode of Responding to Life, I am joined by Nikki Sapp Spoelstra. Nikki is an entrepreneur, a philanthropist, a mother of two boys, a wife, a dog-mom, and a former Teacher of the Year. Nikki has lived with anxiety and depression and after hitting a personal rock bottom, she sought out the freedom and peace that comes from working a 12-step program. She has dedicated her life to service and is now living as a sober woman and mother.   Tune in to hear us discuss:

• Expectations of motherhood
• Battling anxiety, depression, and alcohol addiction
• The importance of forgiveness, self-love and compassion in one's journey towards healing
