Tell me a bit about yourself, Nikki. What do you do?
I host retreats and events for women to work on themselves and their businesses. To take a break from our busy lives, connect with like minded souls and fill up our cups so we are feeling lit up AF.
I'm also a singer and working on some projects to perform in 2021.
What caused your soul searching to find your dream career?
10 years ago I worked in a fast paced, high stress job in construction as a Project Manager. At the time I was also studying law and was intent on climbing the corporate career ladder.
That is until the rug was pulled from under me and I lost my Dad.
The journey of grief led me to reassess what was important to me in life and in the process of healing I tapped back into all the things that used to light me up when I was younger, creativity, singing, art and writing.
I have done a few things since then, including running a successful memorial business which led me to the retreat business (because I needed a damn break!)
My marriage breakdown earlier this year has also been a big motivator to start living the life of my dreams on my terms.
Our biggest challenges often lead to our biggest breakthroughs, that has certainly been true for me.
What do you like most about your work?
I love the beautiful connections I get working with women, the laughter and soul chats!
And when it comes to singing and performing there is nothing else like that feeling and buzz when you step on stage and sing your heart out to a crowd, its the best!
I love that my work lights me up!
Can you share one tip to help others figure out their dream career?
Find what lights you up the most, and do that. If you don't know what that is, explore, play, have fun, try new things and start over and over until you find it, having a great time while you do!
Also, if there is any self doubt or fear around what you want to do, my advice is 'feel the fear and do it anyway'. I used to think I wasn't good enough to sing, if I didn't push past the fear I would never have made my dream come true singing on stage to packed crowds who cheer me on!
If you could tell your past self one thing in regard to your career change, what would it be?
The grass IS greener, do it!
