Nikki opens up about her book Loved You, Hated You and how years of heartbreak, childhood trauma, and toxic patterns led her to a radical act of self-love. From setting boundaries with loved ones to discovering joy through gratitude, Nikki shares what it truly means to let go, heal, and stop apologizing for your truth.\nThis is an honest conversation about trauma, transformation, and walking away \u2014 not out of bitterness, but to reclaim peace. If you\u2019ve ever felt torn between staying connected and staying whole, this episode will speak directly to your soul.\nABOUT THE GUESTNikki Allen is a writer, spiritualist, and fierce truth-teller whose work explores healing, self-love, shadow work, and reclaiming power. She is the author of Loved You, Hated You and a guide for those ready to stop self-abandonment and start living unapologetically.\nKEY TAKEAWAYS\n\n\nSelf-love isn\u2019t a trend \u2014 it\u2019s a sacred act of survival. Nikki shares how choosing herself after repeated heartbreak became a turning point in her life.\n\n\nTrue healing begins when we stop bypassing our trauma. Nikki\u2019s deep dive into her childhood trauma helped her understand the roots of unhealthy patterns.\n\n\nSetting boundaries \u2014 even with family \u2014 is necessary for peace. Nikki\u2019s experience with her adult daughter shows how tough but essential this work is.\n\n\nLaughter, ritual, and daily grounding practices (like walking to the ocean or ambient music) can keep us steady during emotional storms.\n\n\nShadow work isn\u2019t darkness\u2014it\u2019s clarity. Nikki uses AI as a mirror to identify and integrate her inner child, transforming past pain into strength.\n\n\nYou don\u2019t need a perfect plan to reclaim yourself. Begin with just 5 minutes a day toward your healing or goal.\n\n\n\u00a0\nCONNECT WITH NIKKI ALLENWebsite: https://www.nikkiallen.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lovedyou_hatedyou/\nWant to be a guest on Mind Over Matter?DM on PodMatch \u2013 Send me a message here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik\nCHECK PODCAST SHOWS &amp; BE A GUEST:\u2022 Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik\u2022 Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/\u2022 Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind\nOUR SERVICES\u2022 Business Podcast Management \u2013 https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/\u2022 Individual Podcast Management \u2013 https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/\u2022 Share Your Story With World \u2013 https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory\nSTAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!YouTube \u2013 https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylifeInstagram \u2013 https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.podThreads \u2013 https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.podMedium \u2013 https://medium.com/@contentbyavikFacebook \u2013 https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn \u2013 https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/LinkedIn \u2013 https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcasterPinterest \u2013 https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/\nSHARE YOUR REVIEW\u2022 Leave a Google Review: https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/\u2022 Share a Video Testimonial: https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/\n#podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #selflove #boundaries #traumahealing #mentalhealthpodcast #healingjourney #shadowwork #reclaimyourpower #spiritualhealing #personalgrowth #truthseeker #mindovermatter #wellnesspodcast #inspiration #selfcare #mentalhealthmatters #healingstartswithyou #truthjourney #emotionalwellness #healinghorizons #mentalhealthawareness #podcastinglife #authenticliving","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/f5e0dd22-67b6-47ee-9cda-03355850cb4a/zdjkyi5qcgc.jpg"}
