1. Episode #29: Being in the wrong place keeps you from being happy. Deborah Brown-Volkman 20:43

As a teenager, Nicole realized singing was her passion and it led to a career as an opera singer that spanned over two decades. Although performing made her happy, the lifestyle of a singer involving so-called “survival jobs” led her to be unhappy. There were many sacrifices to that life. Craft came first, Self-Care second. Ultimately, this led Nicole to ask the question: “Are my needs being met?” The answer was NO.

After a journey of self-discovery and being around people who believed in and supported her, Nicole made her leap. She became a True Self Love coach. She teaches her clients the importance of being true to themselves and that includes self-forgiveness and self-compassion for past choices and mistakes.

She told me that realizing her worth led to her career pivot. “I deserve more.” Her advice for you: If something is not working, be decisive. Look within, listen to your gut, and make a decision as soon as you can to change your current situation for the better.
