My name is Nikki, I am 32 years young and proudly 316 days completely sober.
I have always had a passion for health, fitness, mindset and empowering others in a holistic and authentic way. I grew up playing sports at a competitive level in netball, swimming and dancing. At age 17 I was selected in the NSW representative team for indoor netball and the Illawarra Academy of Sport for outdoor netball, after 1 year I decided to take what I thought would be the easier route and gave it up to party.
That single decision changed the course of my life, I threw myself into drinking, drugs and partying which lead me down a much harder path for 12 years.
In 2022 the addictions, depression and avoidance of my feelings finally caught up to me and I collapsed. I stopped brushing my teeth, brushing my hair, showering, leaving the house, cooking, cleaning and looking after myself. I no longer had the energy to pretend I was OK; the only thing I had the energy for was to walk to the bottle shop to buy my $5 wine.
After years of trying to get sober, I finally had a tough conversation with myself and accepted that I was exactly who I didn't want to be - I was an alcoholic, an addict, I was overweight, I was tired, I was depressed, I was lonely and I was miserable.
Something had to change, and that something was me.
In November of 2022 I made the decision to get sober for good and to start changing my life. I moved to a house on a mountain and spent the next 2 months building good habits for myself; I promised myself I only had to do 2 things and that was to 1. stay sober and 2. turn up to the gym 4 days a week. I didn't have to workout, I just had to show up at 5am no matter what.
I did that and then had my first call with a woman who changed my life, Asha Coulthard. We committed to 6 months of grinding to lose 40kg and compete in the July 2023 WBFF transformation division where I told my story of change and overcoming in the hopes of inspiring and connecting with other people struggling - depression and addiction are sadly common.
I am proof there is better on the other side.
This comp prep reignited my passion for all things health, fitness & wellbeing which lead me to the next step and fulfilling a dream I always had - helping others. I am now a practicing holistic health, empowerment and mindset coach. I am the coach that leads from the front, with integrity because if I don't I go back to square one.
I pride myself on creating and holding a judgement free, safe space that is filled with fun, thoughtfulness, encouragement and friendship. Even once we've finished, I'll still be in your corner - my clients can't get rid of me that easily, I want you to succeed and I want you to feel supported the whole way through.
There is so much power in holistic health and your mindset, it's the power you hold within you
