Nikki & Raina Show Nikki & Raina

"The best way to get results out of people is to scare the fuck out of them."

But being in business in holistic care is different - we don't want to scare our clients. Empowerment instead. Your bathroom represents your integrity. Nikki and Raina dig deeper into walking the path in improving wellness, and our 'coming out' with the newer ways we are helping clients in our practices. Filling in the gaps in beauty and nutrition, and we touch on conventional and holistic options, fashion, aging and millennials/boomers, liberated. Coming at "sales" from a place of love rather than a place of fear. Introducing our immersive purge program coming to the Okanagan where you discover your purchasing habits, how to minimalize (and use what you already have) and learn how to assess your personal purchasing patterns. Stop the search for the next quick fix and empower yourself.

"The trigger doesn't go away, it's how you manage it when it comes up."

Nikki and Raina dig into deeper levels of our consumerist society and how we've been sold to. The triggers are going to happen (targeting our self worth to sell us more stuff) but its how we deal with it and observe our process in our head when it happens. 

Sorry this happened to you. Here's what we know now about exploitation in the beauty industry.  We all intuitively know that consumerism is undeniably rampant, but Nikki and Raina believe it's all about how we choose to see it. So how do we change that?

We question it, we question everything for ourselves.

"You can roast anything."

Nikki and Raina with guest Chef Scott dig into the reality of eating well over the winter when we don't' have all the fresh healthy fruits and vegetables that are easily available in the summer. Bowls always, the grain that Scott is 'a sucker for,' why we don't like salad in the winter and re-thinking your lettuce before it goes bad. How to winterize smoothies? If you need some inspiration for turning anything into a delicious dippable fry, listen in on crankin' up your oven and getting warm and cozy vegetables in your belly. Hunt for cozy this winter.

"If you're gonna roast it, why not turn it into a french fry?"

"It's for YOU"

Nikki and Raina dig into tailored programs that are unique to YOU and why they should not be shared with your loved ones. We also get into supplements, Dr. Google, re-assessing protocols as your body changes and how holistic health isn't cookie cutter. The sarcasm comes through the podcast waves about our society's view on aging.

"If you leave it for medicine sake, you can fall on it when you need it, it doesn't need to be part of your everyday protocol, but your natural medicine cabinet."

"When You're Living Your passion, but you're hating it."

An honest discussion about dealing with burn out when your work and personal life are so combined. A self-awareness practice of holding space for others in their chaos. Distraction vs. turtling. Pacing in the hallways. Self-care porn. Works in progress. When you're amongst entrepreneurship drama and someone needs your help, which rude is ruder? Leaving chaos in your wake and talking about people venting on you as an entrepreneur when you're busy and stressed. The human-ness of loving the great, hot mess we created.

"Picking organic, where its' sourced from is similar from my personal life to my career...It's an obsession for knowledge."

How Heather of Huna started studying herbalism to heal her own autoimmune issues. She touches the ingredients herself instead of out sourcing. They hand weed and hand harvest the plants to take them to the University of Manitoba for formulating with efficacy with science. Energy of your skin, energy in the ingredients and how your skin encompasses your bodies' entire health.
