Robyn Chance is a visionary artist whose work bridges the tangible and the unseen, offering collectors more than just visual beauty—her paintings are portals to self-discovery, personal empowerment, and transformation.

In this soul-stirring episode, Zoe sits down with Nikki—a true OG in the world of life coaching and medicine woman wisdom. With over 21 years of experience, Nikki shares her powerful healing journey of being diagnosed with celiac disease, losing her period, and reclaiming her health, womb, and wild feminine power.

This conversation travels through lots of juicy & sacred territory: from understanding the body as a divine messenger, to mapping pain as a signal from the universe, to unlocking the orgasmic codes of birth and menstruation. Nikki breaks down the 3 levels our bodies speak to us and reminds us that the deeper we go to the root, the freer we can be.

We also dive into the magic of soulmate union, including Nikki’s jaw-dropping story of marrying her husband just two hours after meeting him—and how their 16-year relationship has become a portal for devotion and purpose. If you’re calling in your beloved, stay tuned for a sweet soulmate practice at the end to activate your love magnetism.

Nikki speaks to the womb as a gateway, not just for healing ourselves, but for birthing the New Earth through our children. Her work is grounded in a powerful “why”: to create a more loving, conscious future for the generations to come.

This episode is medicine for the women walking the path of embodiment, devotion, and creating a life worthy of their soul’s deepest YES.
