What do you do when grief, gratitude, sadness, and strength all show up at once? In this solo episode of It’s Both, host Nikki P offers honest storytelling about a year of losses—nonprofit funding cuts, a close friend’s move—and the emotional complexity of carrying it all.
Through authentic conversations with herself, Nikki practices both/and thinking: you can feel wrecked and resilient, depleted and grateful. She shares simple ways to feel your feelings without bypassing them, build emotional resiliencewith small rituals, and choose self-compassion when the to-do list won’t quit.
If you’re in the messy middle, processing grief and loss, or learning to hold multiple truths, this episode offers language, validation, and companionship for navigating life’s gray areas—without toxic positivity. It’s a gentle reminder that healing isn’t linear, and you don’t have to be okay to keep moving with care.
Because life isn’t either/or—it’s both.
