When we see a relationship end, especially one that we thought was great, it’s natural to wonder why? Who or what was to blame?

In this chat I’m sharing my experience being in relationships where I carried too much of the mental load and it slowly eroded the relationship.

Friend, I’ve been working through this one for awhile so I have a lot to share! Hit play so we can chat about how to identify if someone is weaponizing their incompetence and what I do to let some things go (and not be so controlling.)

It’s a work in progress and I am - by no means - perfect but I’m here to share with you what I’ve learned so we can grow together.

I’m answering all your spicy questions in this Q&A chat!

We’re covering everything from what is it like introducing your grown children to a new boyfriend, how do I overcome the dread of the upcoming political changes, do I still interact with my ex, and whatever happened to Eddie, who was my old house manager that you guys saw on the TV show.

I got tons of questions from y’all on Instagram and I’m not going to avoid the spicy ones so hit play and let’s chat!

Y’all know I'm an open book and I hope that whatever I share helps give you some direction and light to live the better life that you deserve because you do.

Friend, having a huge team is NOT the flex that you think it is.

For those of you who are setting business goals for 2025, this chat is for you! With nearly two decades of experience helping clients grow their businesses, on top of scaling my own, I know the difference between running a business efficiently versus letting your ego make the decisions.

And friend, I am seeing A LOT of that on the internet. The math is not mathing so in this chat, we’re sorting it out.

When it comes to scaling your business, you don’t need a huge team, you need a great consultant.

Can we all agree that if you’ve given birth, you can’t be told NOTHING. Is it possible, though, to love the journey of having a baby but also admit that pregnancy is not for you?

I’m here to say yes, friend, it’s possible and okay! Now in my third trimester, I’m okay saying that pregnancy is not for me. In this chat I share why that is and how I can comfortably admit that.

I know I’m not alone in this thanks to all your messages! Let’s keep this chat going over on IG at https://instagram.com/nicolewalters

Alex is here to help me answer the question of, “What is it like being in an interracial relationship when the topic of race is so divisive?”

We’re sharing when and how race gets brought up in our home, if our interracial relationship affects our work, and how we’ve come together in parenting our current and future babies. And friend, this is just our take! We don’t speak for every white man, black woman, or interracial couple.

Y’all know how important exfoliation is to me but it doesn’t end with my skin. As you reflect on this year, I want to encourage you to look at the people in your life and ask, “Am I being too nice?!”

In this chat I’m bringing you into what I’ve learned about being too nice and therefore overcompensating for the people in my life. Whether that’s family, friends, or employees, their trauma is not their fault but their healing journey is their responsibility, not mine and not yours.

The reality is not everyone is coming into the next season with us. Our responsibility is not to heal others but to allow them to step into their healing journey. So friend, are you too nice?

This is one of the tougher chats we’ve had but because I want our time here to be impactful AND move in integrity, I’m glad to have this chat with you.

Whether this is the first chat you’ve listened to or you’ve been around since season 1, thanks for being here friend! Binge the show to hear our other chats and find my New York Times Bestselling memoir, Nothing Is Missing, on Amazon or your favorite bookstore!

At the end of the day, I hope that we're able to show love, compassion, grace, and respect towards each other because we're so much more than a single political issue and so much more than our politics.

In previous chats, we’ve talked about the expectation and pressure that exists to support our parents (especially for those of us who are first generation!) We were raised to stand in the gap of everyone else’s mess, even before building something of our own.

The impulse to help everyone else before we help ourselves can burn us out QUICK and when you burn yourself out, you can’t help anyone.

Friend, there is no return on investment when you are training people to use YOU as the resource.

Don’t miss this chat! Hit play so I can share a little bit of hard-earned wisdom with you.

I wish I could say that this is one of those chats where I have the answers, but the reality is it just isn’t. I’m struggling with this and if you have any answers or can relate, DM me. I receive it, friend!

I’m heading to Atlanta for a business dinner soon and it’s bringing up feelings of grief and reminders of my former life. It’s like when the babies head to college and you go into their room and wish they were still there even though you know it’s right that they aren’t.

If there is anything I’m learning it’s that the future doesn’t look like what you think it’s going to look like. The future is always better but maybe in a way that is different than you expected.

Wherever you’re at right now, this isn’t the end. The journey is still continuing and God has incredible plans for you.

Thanks so much for being here, friend. DM me over on IG at https://instagram.com/nicolewalters
