As I think back to over thirty years ago, I couldn't have imagined being where I am today. How I wish this one would have been grasped early, and I am still learning daily to understand it. This letter is a personal and transparent insight into Nikkia and journey through life as a 15-year-old girl Although I now look back with gratitude for the experiences that brought me to this path of helping others, I wrote a letter to my younger self with the wisdom and experience of a 44-year-old woman who has overcome so much and made it out the other side.
How do you forgive someone of a deep hurt - when an apology is never actually given? Do we even have to forgive the person? And if we do forgive, do we have to reconcile?

Feeling overwhelmed by the constant stream of texts, emails and nonstop push notifications? It might be time to cut back on your phone time with a digital detox. No matter your reasoning—stress, sadness or simply because you want to challenge yourself—a digital detox will prove beneficial for your brain and body. Getting some “me” time doesn't come easy, as you can be interrupted even when you've already put up a “do not disturb” sign on your door. Nikkia will discuss giving yourself permission to be yourself is a process. It starts with small permissions such as giving yourself permission to rest when you are tired or sick or giving yourself permission to ask for help when you need it. When you practice these smaller permissions on a regular basis, it becomes easier to give yourself permission to be your true self.

Finding closure implies a complete acceptance of what has happened and an honoring of the transition away from what's finished to something new.

This episode Nikkia will discuss essential ways to find closure from the past.SHOW NOTES : Instacart - Groceries delivered in as little as 1 hourFree delivery on your first order over $35https://instacart.oloiyb.net/c/2741272/1020808/7412Save yourself that trip to the market — Instacart delivers groceries in as fast as 1 hour!
