Tell Me More with Nicole Walters

Opinions are easy, understanding takes work. What if everything you think you know about “those people”… is wrong? Welcome to Tell Me More with Nicole Walters - the unfiltered, judgment-free zone where curiosity leads and honest conversations follow. In a world shaped by echo chambers and algorithms, it’s easy to form opinions about people we’ve never actually met. The sugar baby. The trans woman. The undocumented immigrant. The reality TV star. We’ve heard about them but have we ever heard from them? That’s what this show is all about. Born out of Nicole’s 2020 Tough Talk Series, Tell Me More is a space where we refuse to make the world smaller and scarier. There’s no room for hate, racism, or bigotry here—but there’s plenty of room for bold, uncomfortable, and deeply human conversations. Each week, Nicole sits down with the people you’re most curious about and asks the questions you’ve been too afraid (or too filtered) to ask. It’s raw. It’s candid. It’s not about changing your mind - it’s about giving you the real story so you can make up your own. You’ll also hear updates on Nicole’s life, business, and family but at its core, this show is a place to listen well, grow together, and build confidence in your own character. So if you’re ready to break out of your bubble, challenge your assumptions, and hear directly from the source… This is the podcast you’ve been waiting for. Tell Me More with Nicole Walters—available wherever you get your podcasts.

    About... Somatic Therapy for High Achievers (with Dr. Danielle Griffin)

    If your nervous system has not seen peace since 2019, this one is for you! Dr. Danielle Griffin is here to talk about what it really means to carry stress in your body and why so many of us have been living in survival mode for years. As a thought leader in Somatic Exercise Therapy and a TEDx speaker dedicated to the science of the mind-body connection, Dr. Griffin helps high performers understand how chronic stress, pressure, and responsibility don’t just live in the mind… they show up physically as tension, burnout, insomnia, and even chronic illness. We chat through the difference between somatic therapy and traditional talk therapy, why so many people struggle to even identify what they’re feeling, and how simple practices like breathwork, movement, and awareness can begin to release what your body has been holding onto. This conversation explores what it looks like to slow down, tune in, and create space for healing… without losing your edge, ambition, or drive. We’re chatting about: The difference between somatic therapy and talk therapyHow stress and trauma get stored in the bodyWhy high achievers often live in chronic tension and burnoutThe connection between physical symptoms and emotional overwhelmHow breathwork, movement, and meditation help regulate the nervous systemSimple ways to start releasing stress in your body today If you constantly feel on edge, stuck in survival mode, or like your body can't relax… this chat will help you understand why and show you what to do next.

    About... Using Art for Activism (with Malynda Hale)

    "We say, 'Listen to Black Women,' but are you really ready to do that? Because I feel like we could fix a lot of problems if people actually took the time to listen to us." Singer, songwriter, activist, and founder, Malynda Hale is here to chat about what it means to use your voice for something bigger than performance. After the killing of Philando Castile in 2016, Malynda began shifting her work from traditional music performance toward purpose-driven storytelling and activism, using her platform to amplify Black voices and advocate for equity.

  6. About Being... the 92% in America

    About Being... the 92% in America

    92 percent. That’s how many Black women voted for Kamala Harris. And somehow… we’re still being asked to carry the country. To welcome in Black History Month, we're unpacking what that 92 percent statistic really means and why Black women voters remain the most ignored constituency in the room. This isn’t just about politics though. It’s about grace. It’s about systemic racism in America. It’s about faith being weaponized in Christianity and politics. And it’s about immigration, dehumanization, and who gets protected. We're chatting about: The meaning behind the 92 percent of Black women who voted for Kamala Harris (and why that number matters!)The “grace gap” and the emotional labor placed on Black women in politics and cultureThe misuse of Christianity in politics and what faith actually calls us to doWhy Black History Month should question endurance, not just celebrate it Race should not be a privilege and humanity should not be conditional. If this makes you uncomfortable, good. Discomfort is the beginning of change. Thank you for being here today to listen.

    About... How to ACTUALLY Help Immigrants (Part 2)

    "Policy is outpacing compassion and enforcement is starting to replace discernment." Immigration isn’t just a political issue, it's a moral one. Last week we sat in the moment of what is happening with immigration enforcement in our nation. In this chat, we're taking it a step further by answering the question of, "What can we do about it?" We're not talking about policy or even politics but we can each do to restore humanity and take action without burning out. We're chatting about: How fear-based messaging is shaping immigration debatesWhy dehumanizing language is dangerous for our kids and our cultureWhat every American should understand about due process rightsHow local communities can create change when national politics feel impossibleHow we as parents can teach empathy, courage, and civic responsibility right now If you’ve felt powerless watching the news… If you’ve wondered how to help without becoming exhausted or overwhelmed… If you want to raise kids who care about justice and humanity… This episode will give you clarity, hope, and practical next steps. Because change doesn’t come from outrage alone... it comes from people who choose compassion and act consistently.   Come chat with me over on Threads where you always get spicy Nicole at https://threads.net/nicolewalters and WATCH the show on YT at http://nicolewalters.com/youtube Produced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
