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.

    What to Do When You Don’t Know What to Do Next (with Heather Thompson Day)

    What do you do when you’re asking God for clarity… and the answer still isn’t clear? My dear friend, Heather Thompson Day, is here, and this is one of those chats that feels less like an interview and more like sitting in the room with two friends talking about life, faith, uncertainty, and what it really looks like to trust God when you don’t know what comes next. Heather and I are both in a season of asking big questions about what’s next. We’re talking about learning to hear God’s voice, trusting your intuition, and why sometimes the clarity we’re desperately searching for only comes when we finally get still enough to listen. Heather shares how she’s learned to recognize those quiet nudges from God, why she no longer believes every good opportunity is her opportunity, and how she moves forward even when she doesn’t have certainty about the outcome. ✨ We Chat About: How to trust God when you don’t know what comes nextLearning to hear God’s voice without letting fear and outside noise take overTrusting your intuition and the Holy Spirit when making big decisionsTaking the next step even when you don’t know how everything will work outThe importance of friendship and community when you’re rebuildingBelieving that your best years and your purpose are not behind you If you’re in a season of transition, rebuilding, or simply wondering, God, what am I supposed to do next? this chat is for you. You may not have the entire plan yet. You may not even know where you’re going. But sometimes the first step isn’t figuring everything out. Sometimes it’s getting still enough to hear what comes next. ✨ Tell Me More: Connect with Heather: https://www.heatherthompsonday.com/linksConnect with Nicole on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicolewaltersConnect with Nicole on Substack: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.com/ Episode Sponsors: Try M4 Skincare from Alloy and see results in as little as 8 weeks.

    How to Recognize Spiritual Abuse and Trust God Again (with Anita Albert-Watson)

    How do you know when God is asking you to hold on… and when He’s asking you to let go? Pastor and coach Anita Albert-Watson is here to chat about faith, spiritual abuse, discernment, and what it looks like to trust God when something just doesn’t feel right. After watching Death of a Pastor’s Wife, Anita and I unpack what we saw through her perspective as both an ordained pastor and a pastor’s wife. From the red flags of unhealthy church leadership to what happens when scripture and spiritual authority are used to manipulate instead of guide, Anita has a lot to share. But this chat goes far beyond one documentary...   We’re talking about the moments when you know something needs to change but you’re afraid that letting go means you’re giving up. Anita shares her own experience of stepping away from ministry, finding a new assignment, and learning that leaving one season behind doesn’t necessarily mean leaving your calling behind.  We’re chatting about: How to recognize spiritual abuse and unhealthy church leadershipWhy spiritual authority should always come with accountabilityThe difference between trusting a pastor and knowing scripture for yourselfHow to strengthen your discernment when something feels wrongKnowing when God may be releasing you from one assignment and leading you toward anotherHow to hear God when you’re in a season of transition and don’t know what comes next If you’ve experienced church hurt, questioned whether you can trust your own discernment, or found yourself wondering whether God is asking you to stay, leave, or simply take the next step, this chat is for you.    Tell Me More: Connect with Anita on Substack: https://substack.com/@anitaalbertwatsonConnect with Nicole on Substack: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.comFind The Bible Project at https://www.youtube.com/@bibleproject Episode Sponsors: Go to http://bioptimizers.com/nicole and use code NICOLE for 15% off your entire order, plus a free travel size bottle of Masszymes - BiOptimizers' best-selling digestive enzyme — added to your order automatically.

    How to Get More Clients Without Posting More Content

    "The message that you will only see proper and consistent success if you have a crazy number of eyes on you is one of the biggest lies you've ever been told." If you’re building a business right now and wondering why the strategies that used to work suddenly aren’t working anymore, you’re not imagining it. The game has changed but that doesn’t mean it’s over. In this chat, I’m breaking down one of the biggest lies entrepreneurs have been sold: that you need more followers, more views, more content, and more visibility to make more money. You don’t. Social media can absolutely help grow your business, but it should be a way, not the way. Instead of chasing algorithms and constantly trying to get in front of more people, I’m sharing why your focus needs to shift back to the fundamentals that build sustainable businesses. Yes, we're talking sales, relationships, repeat customers, and knowing exactly how much money you actually need to make.  Don't Miss This Chat On: Why more followers don't automatically mean more moneyHow to grow a business without relying on social mediaWhy sales skills matter more than learning the latest algorithmThe 1,000 True Fans strategy and what it means for your businessHow to calculate your true income goal and reverse engineer your salesWhy going deep with the audience you already have can beat constantly chasing more visibilityHow real relationships create a more sustainable business You do not need to go viral to build a business that works. You need the right people, a product you believe in, and the willingness to actually ask for the sale. It’s not over yet. If you understand the game, you can stay in it.

    The Girlboss Era Is Dead and Hustle Culture Is Next

    The girlboss era is officially dead. But did we swing too far in the other direction? For years, we were told to hustle harder, optimize ourselves, build the business, chase the dream, and wear burnout like a badge of honor. Then came the backlash... the soft life, quiet ambition, anti-work, and the idea that maybe we should just give it all up and move to Bali. But y’all… where is the middle? Today, I’m talking about what girlboss culture got right, what we were sold that was completely wrong, and why I don’t think the answer to hustle culture is giving up on ambition altogether.  We Chat About: Why girlboss culture and hustle culture ultimately led so many women to burnoutHow the soft life and performative rest became the backlash to constant hustlingThe difference between optimizing yourself and building better systems around your goalsWhy social media gives us such an unrealistic picture of both success and restWhat entrepreneurship actually looks like behind the scenes right nowHow to define ambition, success, work, and rest on your own terms If you’re tired of feeling like you have to choose between being the girlboss who works herself into the ground or giving it all up for the soft life… if business feels harder right now and you’re wondering if you’re doing something wrong… if you’re trying to figure out what ambition looks like in this next chapter… this chat is for you.

    Why Every Content Creator Needs an Exit Strategy

    Being a content creator looks like the dream job right now. Share your life. Build an audience. Make money online. Maybe even turn your platform into an entire career. But after being on social media since the VERY early days of Facebook, I have some thoughts about what this career actually looks like… and what I wish more people understood before jumping in... We Chat About: How social media has changed since the early days of FacebookWhy becoming a content creator isn't as glamorous as it looksThe criticism, judgment, and expectations creators face onlineWhy you need an intention AND an exit strategy before building your career on social mediaWhat Miss Rachel gets right about building a platform around a bigger missionWhy more followers and visibility don't necessarily equal more impactHow to build something meaningful without becoming beholden to an algorithm If you're building a business online, dreaming about becoming a creator, or wondering why social media just doesn't feel the way it used to, this chat is for you. Because if there's one thing I've learned after all these years online, it's this: the algorithm will change, the attention will change, the money will change, and eventually, this chapter will too.   Connect with Nicole: On Substack: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.com/On Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersOn YouTube: http://nicolewalters.com/youtube Episode Sponsors: Use code NICOLE at checkout for 15% off your entire order at www.vionicshoes.com when you log into your account. 1 time use only.

    The Internet is Wild! Hot Takes with Alex Csillag

    There are two kinds of people in this world... people who think it's totally normal to let a toddler roam a public park while "the village" watches them AND people like me  This week, Alex joins me for one of my favorite kinds of episodes as we unpack the wildest conversations happening over on Threads.

    About... The Free Cheat Code to Winning as a Business Owner (with Arthur Csillag)

    If you're an entrepreneur you've probably heard that you need the perfect marketing strategy, a bigger audience, and the latest social media hack to build a successful business. But what if the real marketing secret is... your reputation? This week, I'm sitting down with someone who's had a front row seat to that truth for more than 40 years... my father-in-law, Arthur Csillag. He's spent decades building a thriving law practice without chasing followers, algorithms, or personal branding. Instead, he built something even more valuable: trust. And honestly? This chat reminded me that some of the best business advice doesn't come from the internet. It comes from people who've quietly been doing the work for decades.  We Chat About: Why your reputation is still your greatest marketing strategyHow Arthur built a successful business one client at a timeThe surprising role anger played in pushing him to become an entrepreneurHow to know which clients to say yes to (and which ones to walk away from)Why passion has to come before the paycheck if you want to build something that lasts We also talk about the role his wife, Margaret, played at home AND at work and why the work you do when nobody's watching is often what determines your long-term success. If you've been questioning whether all the hustle, algorithms, and constant pressure to market yourself are really the only way to build a business... this chat may be the reminder you needed!

    About... Why More Americans Are Rejecting Both Political Parties (with Dr. Lauren Pinkston)

    There's a quiet frustration a lot of us are carrying right now. Somehow politics has become more about picking a team than solving problems and many of us are looking for a way OUT. Maybe you're tired of the culture wars. Maybe you're exhausted by the constant outrage. Maybe you're looking around wondering why nobody seems to be talking about the things that actually impact your daily life… like childcare, the cost of living, and whether your family can afford the future you want for your kids. If that's you, this chat is going to hit home. I sit down with Tennessee gubernatorial candidate, Dr. Lauren Pinkston, for a chat about independent politics, the childcare crisis, and why so many Americans feel politically homeless right now. Because whether you're deeply involved in politics or you've completely checked out, this chat is really about something much bigger: what happens when ordinary people start looking for practical solutions instead of partisan talking points.  We Chat About: Why more Americans are identifying as independent votersThe childcare crisis and its impact on working familiesWhy women belong in positions of political leadershipHow political polarization is leaving many voters feeling unheardWhy focusing on issues instead of culture wars could change the future of governmentWhat it actually means to run as an independent candidate Because no matter where you land politically, I think all of us are looking for the same thing… a little more hope and a lot more honesty.
