Have you ever asked yourself, “Why can’t I just stick to this?” or felt like you must be broken because every diet, challenge, or meal plan eventually backfires? You’re not alone—and you’re not the problem.

In this episode of Dig Deep, Reach High, Nicole unpacks the painful truth about why 95% of diets fail (even the ones designed by professionals), why the shame you’re carrying doesn’t belong to you, and what it actually takes to step into lasting health and food freedom.

If you’re tired of starting over, beating yourself up, and living in the exhausting cycle of yo-yo dieting, this conversation will help you release the shame, reframe your relationship with food, and finally see what real transformation looks like.

✨ Tune in to learn why your body isn’t broken—and how to stop fighting it and start trusting it again.

Have you ever had a moment of depression that was so deep you didn’t think you could get out by yourself? What if I told you that there was hope? That no matter how deep your hole of depression, pain, angst or worry you were in there is still something you can do to find peace? Pulling from a real-life story of a woman named Hannah we are going to walk through the greatest moment of depression in her life and how we too can get release, relief, and find the way to stand up and start a new day shining.

In a powerful experience of connection to herself and Adonai she was not only set free in the moment of the pain and anguish but was given a gift of freedom for the rest of her life as Adonai remembered her. Today, we are going to talk not only through this moment of release from her pain and depression but we are digging deep to learn from Hannah on how to be remembered and heard by Adonai in our prayers. Stick around and let’s learn some real truths from this woman’s experience that touches us all.

Did you know that we have 2 ears and 1 mouth so we should listen twice as much as we speak? Well, at least that’s what my grandma used to say. No offense to Grandma but I think being heard is just as important as hearing someone else. Truly hearing someone and being heard is a powerful skill that impacts our connections to others, our mental health, even our physical pleasure and when it comes to relationships there is nothing greater than a moment with the one you love sharing your heart and connecting to them in deeper and more powerful ways.

Today we are going to unpack the skills we should all be practicing to deepen our romantic connections, better the experiences around the hard talks of life, and even allow for inner healing to take place in us and others. Stick with me as I lay out the scientific truth in raising your mental health and healing your soul through hearing others and being heard through the art of conversing.

What is your greatest asset when it comes to overcoming your fears? If you caught yesterday’s Instagram Trivia Question, you might recall your answer…did you guess? I’ll give you a hint: it all starts with your mindset—and there are two potential correct answers to it. Perhaps you guessed self-awareness or bravery? Both are right on target! Being brutally honest about your vulnerabilities while daring enough to work on them is exactly how you knock fear out of your life.

Fear is a force that can show up in many forms: from everyday worries to deep-rooted anxieties and even trauma. Today, I’m diving into the science and the real-life tactics behind giving your fears a knockout punch. I’m drawing on my own journey in overcoming fears—from the world of self-defense training and understanding neuroplasticity—to show you that with intention, self-compassion, and a bit of technique, you too can dominate your fears and reclaim the power over your life. Stick with me as we explore how to turn fear into fuel for transformation.

This pause is for you—acknowledge your body and mind, and prepare to embrace a fresh perspective on weight loss. Stick around as this episode is one you will not want to miss.

Have you ever noticed how little kids seem to shrug off worries as quickly as they appear? Why are kids so free! They’re free from the stress, anxieties, and endless “what ifs” that adults often cling to. It’s easy to think that the ‘simple pleasures’ of life are a thing of the past when our world can be so inundated with the common stresses and anxieties of adult life of full lives, families, or careers….but even when life gets heavy—we can reclaim a sense of freedom and joy to break that stress that holds us back on a regular bases.

In this episode, we’ll explore real-life lessons from our littlest teachers. We’ll unpack what it means to infuse our days with energizing activities that bolster our physical and mental strength, challenge our habitual anxieties, and ultimately empower us to reclaim the freedom only a 4 year old would understand. Stick with me as we fill our “party bag” with special goodies and ideas designed to give hope to the life we are so desperately trying to hold all together. Learn to turn off the stress triggers and give yourself an experience of freedom and joy to push you closer to the best version of yourself.

However, even in the midst of this troubled world…We have a chance to make an impact for a better world. Today, we are going to explore how our day to day choices have the power to shape our world for the better. And there is no greater history to reflect on during these times than the life of Noah—yes, Noah—His unwavering righteous and heartfelt choices changed not only his destiny but also the future of humanity.

So, stick around, and be impacted, feel closer to your own intentional choices, and never again be able to look at a Rainbow in the same way again. Stay tuned and let’s take back the power to be the good in the world again.
