"You have to take action for it to work..." Nicola on fighting darkness, finding strength and inspiring change.
TRIGGER WARNING: This episode covers suicide and mental health struggles. If that's something you'd rather not to listen to right now, please feel free to skip and come back when you're ready. I've known Nicola for many years now, and knew when I wanted to launch my own podcast, I'd be asking her to come on as a guest. Luckily she said yes, and we sat in my garden on possibly the hottest day of summer.Nicola is a big character, with a big heart. And although her social feeds consist of inspiring and motivational posts, it goes without saying that she's had her own struggles. Even then, she continued to show up for others, before realising change had to happen. You can find her using @iam_nbfitness to follow along her journey. Here is Nicola's story so far, I hope you enjoy it.Nicola's Book RecommendationsLet Them: Mel RobbinsNever Split the Difference: Chris VossGood Vibes, Good Life: Vex KingAtomic Habits: James ClearRelentless: Tim S GroverSupport the showWant to keep up to date with who's to come on future episodes?
