Today, Nikki is an author, CEO, speaker and self-love lifestyle coach & advocate. But that wasn’t always the case. Just a few years ago she wouldn't have believed she could be any of those things.

By the time she turned 41, Nikki had been diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes, become legally blind, contracted meningitis, lost both her parents, and had a kidney and pancreas transplant. When she became diabetic Nikki felt different. But when she became legally blind she felt incapable and lived her life believing that.

When she was 43, her husband asked her for a separation.
He said she was miserable.
He said he was miserable, and that he couldn’t keep living like that anymore.

Something had to change, And that was how Nikki felt about herself, her self-worth and her approach and perceptions of life and it's challenges.

In this brutally honest and transformative memoir, Nikki exposes herself in a vulnerably engaging style. You will experience the good, the bad, the ugly and the divertingly hilarious. This life’s account engages you to the fullest through raw, unapologetic emotion. Nikki's depiction of her experiences will leave you believing you took the journey yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hopefulness saturated by gratitude!

When I began the book, my mother was having dialysis for the first time. With Mom being a juvenile onset diabetic, having undergone the surgery for Diabetic Retinopathy and becoming legally blind, it was easy for me to connect with the book and the author. But the book certainly transcends those specific struggles... I began reading as an observer of others but as I closed in on the last few pages a remarkable transition to an inward reflection had taken place. A hopefulness saturated by gratitude. Thank you Nikki for "baring all" so I could reflect on inward struggles, cast in the light of hope rather than hidden in the lap of discouragement!

I decided to read this book because I met the woman who wrote it. She is amazing looking, by the way. Her story is unbelievable and true, one of those unimaginable stories. Having an organ transplant is one thing, but a more than one organ transplant is another thing. Can't imagine going through what she has in her life and landing so well on her feet. And writing a book. Don't want to give away too much. Read it! You'll love it. And you'll love Nicole.

I just finished reading this. I have known Nikki and Steve for more than 15 years. Many of what she has written is known to me because of our involvement with WWP. Much of what I read brought back mostly fond memories. I am happy for her. This is a MUST READ. Nikki is a very entertaining and descriptive writer. I will sum up my thoughts with three words — TRIUMPH OVER TRAGEDY. But it, read it and think about it!

Nikki wrote with an open heart, the good and not so good of her life’s journey. A very brave life story and telling of it in a smart, honest, and humorous way. One of the best writing I have come across in a while. It was as if she was sitting chatting over a glass of good wine with a friend!
