“Nikki, this podcast is always like my therapy- but wow this latest podcast on burnout and balance was truly incredible! So many nuggets of wisdom I was nodding along and saying “wow” out loud. So validating and will help me deal with so many student situations and with my own self care and growth. Thank you for your amazing work.”
