I’m Nikki—a 50-year-old entrepreneur, Holistic Wellness Educator and Strategist, natural nurturer and founder of Healthy Living With Nikki. Health, movement and caring for others have been part of my life for many years. By age 18, I was already a businesswoman and the owner of a full-service salon. I later taught group fitness and Zumba, worked as a personal trainer and exercised at least five days a week. These experiences taught me how deeply confidence, self-care and overall well-being are connected.
Trauma, prolonged stress and difficult life experiences affected me mentally, emotionally and physically. Despite my knowledge of health and fitness, my well-being began to decline. I experienced obesity, chronic fatigue, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, prediabetes, arthritis and other health challenges.
My journey has included surviving an abusive marriage and intimate-partner violence, including being shot by a former boyfriend. I have also experienced profound loss, prolonged stress and difficult relationships and circumstances that affected my mental, emotional and physical well-being.
These experiences taught me that trauma does not remain confined to one event or only affect the mind. It can influence the body, our energy, our habits, our health and the way we care for ourselves.
Working through these experiences has required me to return to myself, rebuild my health and make intentional changes in how I live. I have taken a holistic approach to restoring my well-being through fasting, cold-pressed juice, whole foods, movement and consistent lifestyle changes. Along the way, I lost more than 100 pounds and began reclaiming my energy, confidence and quality of life.
My journey has also given me a deeper understanding of what it means to begin again. It is why I approach every person with patience, compassion and respect for the experiences that may have shaped their health.



I was born with a rare eye condition and lived with significant vision loss from an early age. However, I did not fully understand that I was legally blind until adulthood.
For much of my life, I simply learned to adapt. I became independent, built businesses, worked with clients, taught fitness and continued moving forward without allowing my limited vision to determine what I could accomplish.
Living with legal blindness has shaped the way I experience the world. It has taught me to pay attention to what is not always visible—the emotional weight people carry, the strength it takes to begin again and the importance of meeting each person with patience and understanding.
Caring for others has always been part of who I am. As an aunt to 37 nieces and nephews, I have played a meaningful role in the lives of most of them—offering care, encouragement, guidance and a steady presence through different stages of their lives.
That nurturing nature extends into the way I serve my clients. I do not see people as appointments, numbers or conditions to correct. I see the whole person—their experiences, responsibilities, challenges, potential and the life they are working to create.

Healthy Living With Nikki grew from both my professional experience and my personal journey toward healing. I created it to help others understand that wellness is not about perfection or a number on the scale. It is about learning what your body needs, making intentional choices and caring for your physical, mental and emotional well-being.
My approach is personal, compassionate and whole-person centered. I meet people where they are, help them recognize what may be affecting their wellness and support them in building realistic habits that fit their lives. My goal is to create a welcoming space where people feel heard, encouraged and empowered to move forward.
As a Holistic Wellness Educator and Strategist, I help people understand the different factors influencing their well-being and develop practical strategies for moving forward. My education as a Holistic Nutrition Specialist supports my work in whole-person wellness, fasting, nutrition, cold-pressed juicing and using thoughtfully selected fruits and vegetables to support specific health concerns and wellness goals.
My professional background also includes previous fitness certifications and experience as a personal trainer, group-fitness instructor and Zumba instructor. This foundation helps me provide practical movement and exercise recommendations that consider a client’s goals, fitness level and overall wellness plan.
I am also trained and certified in multiple non-invasive body-contouring and wellness treatments designed to support body shaping, skin tightening, muscle toning, circulation and lymphatic movement.
My education continues to grow as I study the relationship between food, minerals, movement, stress, lifestyle habits and the body’s natural ability to restore balance. I combine that knowledge with practical experience and an individualized approach to help clients make informed wellness decisions.

I believe wellness should be personal. Two people may share the same goal while having very different bodies, lifestyles, responsibilities and reasons for wanting change.
I begin by listening. Through conversation, wellness assessments and available body-scan information, I help identify the habits, concerns and areas of life that may be influencing your well-being.
Depending on your needs, your next steps may include:
• Nutrition and healthy-living education
• Fasting and lifestyle guidance
• Cold-pressed juice and whole-food support
• Practical movement and exercise recommendations
• Body-composition and wellness scans
• Non-invasive body-contouring treatments
• Personalized wellness strategies and accountability
• Referrals to qualified healthcare professionals when a need falls outside my scope
My role is not to diagnose or promise a quick fix. It is to educate, help you understand your options and create a realistic strategy that supports your wellness goals and the life you want to live.
