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 youIf 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 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 nextIf 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/@bibleprojectEpisode 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.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.Visit forhers.com/nicole to get personalized, affordable care that gets you.Produced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

"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 businessYou 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.

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 termsIf 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.Connect with Nicole:On Substack: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.com/On Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersOn YouTube: http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeEpisode 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.Explore viral bestsellers and products for healthier hair of ALL types at baskandlatherco.com.Go to http://bioptimizers.com/nicole and use code NICOLE to get 15% off your entire order and a free travel size bottle of Masszymes - BiOptimizers' best-selling digestive enzyme — added to your order.

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. From parenting debates and relationship hot takes to why checking your partner's phone is absolutely not the flex some people think it is, we're saying exactly what we think.We also get into the great garlic powder crisis, Mercury retrograde, and why "Threads Nicole" might just be be Alex's favorite version of me.If you've ever read something online and thought, "Wait... am I the crazy one?" this chat is for you.Come laugh with us, disagree with us, and maybe send me a Thread afterward.

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 lastsWe 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!Connect with Nicole:Read Context is Everything: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.com/Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersYouTube: http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeEpisode Sponsor:Visit Luxetribes.com and use code NICOLE at checkout for $100 off eligible group trips. Produced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

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 candidateBecause 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.Connect with Lauren:Learn More About Her Campaign: https://pinkstonfortn.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pinkstonfortnConnect with Nicole:Work with Nicole: https://nicolewalters.com/work-with-me/Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersYouTube: http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeProduced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Why is it that in so many cases, the moment a woman starts thriving, her partner becomes uncomfortable with her success?I know we can agree that neither partner in a relationship should have to make themselves smaller to keep the relationship working.Today, Alex is back on the podcast and we're chatting through what so many women are quietly experiencing but rarely talk about openly: what happens when a woman starts stepping into her full potential and the people around her struggle to keep up.We're talking about ambition, marriage, success, insecurity, and why so many high-achieving women are told to dim their light in order to make other people comfortable. We Chat About:Why some men feel threatened by a woman's successThe difference between a supportive partner and a competitive oneHow insecurity can quietly sabotage relationships and marriagesThe truth about being a high-achieving woman in today's dating and marriage landscapeAlex shares his take on navigating marriage, building your individual dreams while growing together, and what it actually looks like to support your partner without losing yourself in the process.And whew… there were a few moments in this chat that had both of us saying, "Why aren't we talking about this more?"If you've ever questioned whether your ambition makes you "too much"… if you've ever been told to play small, dim your light, or lower your standards… if you're trying to build relationships that can grow alongside your success instead of being threatened by it… this episode is for you.Connect with Alex:Website: https://alexcsillag.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alex_csillag Connect with Nicole:Work with Nicole: https://nicolewalters.com/work-with-me/Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersWATCH the Tell Me More podcast: http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeProduced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Y’all… this chat right here? This is the one for the women who keep saying, “I’m fine,” while secretly wondering if they’ll ever feel fully seen, safe, or loved again.Today I’m sitting down with relationship coach and “Love Cheerleader” LaNise Thrasher for a chat about love after divorce, emotional healing, dating again, and the very real ways high-achieving women can accidentally use success, busy-ness, and independence to avoid vulnerability.Because let’s be honest… a lot of us have built beautiful lives while quietly carrying heartbreak.We talk about the versions of ourselves that emerge after divorce or major heartbreak.

" You could have a birth plan go completely to plan... but still leave feeling negative about it."Friend, this is one of those chats I wish every woman had before she ever steps into a delivery room.Today we get to chat with my friend Jen Hamilton — labor and delivery nurse, educator, and one of the most trusted voices online when it comes to pregnancy, labor, and postpartum care.And we’re talking about what actually shapes your childbirth experience.

This chat is about changing that.We’re diving into birth plans vs reality, how to advocate for yourself during labor, and what it really looks like to feel supported, informed, and in control... even when things don’t go as expected. We Chat About:Why your birth plan doesn’t guarantee a good birth experienceHow communication can reduce birth trauma (more than anything else)How to advocate for yourself without feeling difficult or confrontationalWhy feeling supported matters more than everything going “to plan”How to trust your instincts in the moment (even if you’re a planner)Why flexibility, not control, leads to a better birth experienceWhether you’re pregnant, planning to be, supporting someone who is, or just want to understand how to approach birth with more confidence and less fear… this chat is for you.Because you deserve more than just a healthy outcome.Connect with Jen Hamilton:Grab a copy of Birth Vibes at https://www.jenhamilton.co/birthvibesFollow Jen on IG at https://www.instagram.com/_jen_hamilton_/ Connect with Nicole:On her *new* Substack: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.com/On Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersWATCH the Tell Me More podcast: http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeEpisode Sponsor:Try Gusto today at gusto.com/nicole, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Produced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I’m opening up about something I’ve honestly avoided talking about for a long time... parenting.A lot of people know me as a mom, but I’ve always been careful about giving parenting advice because let’s be real, everybody has opinions. And when you’re raising kids in the real world, through real circumstances, there is no perfect formula.We’re talking about what it means to parent with intention instead of performance, how to trust yourself when the internet has something to say about everything, and why sometimes the best parenting advice is knowing your family better than anyone else does.We Chat About:Why I’ve been hesitant to talk publicly about parenting until nowParenting with boundaries, discipline, and deep loveNavigating hard family seasons including divorce, health struggles, and recoveryWhat I’ve learned raising kids in different ages and life stagesIf you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing enough, doing it right, or just trying to survive the season you’re in, this chat is for you. Because the truth is, we’re all figuring it out. And sometimes the greatest gift we can give each other is honesty. Connect with Nicole:On her *new* Substack: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.com/On Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersWATCH Tell Me More: http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeEpisode Sponsor:Ready to reach your goals?

"You don't get MORE time, you just get much better about your time. And that is non-negotiable."Alex is back to chat through what is working as we chase big goals, stay connected in marriage, and raise kids while building creative careers.

Your body was never the barrier.... but the way you’ve been taught to think about it might be.In this chat I’m sharing something I’ve intentionally stayed quiet about for a long time… my body, my weight, and why I don’t share the details of “how” I’ve lost it.Not because I’m hiding something but because I’ve seen how harmful that conversation can be.We live in a world that feels entitled to comment on women’s bodies. To analyze them. To assign meaning to them. To decide what they say about your discipline, your success, your worth.And I’m just not open to that.This chat is a deeper, more honest look at what it actually means to navigate body changes in a very visible life… and the mindset that’s allowed me to show up in every version of myself without waiting to “arrive” first.We’re talking about weight loss, yes… but more importantly, we’re talking about self-trust, autonomy, and what it looks like to like your body in every season. We chat about:The truth about weight loss and why almost everything “works”Why body image struggles often have nothing to do with your actual bodyThe pressure women face to look a certain way before they’re taken seriouslyHow body commentary online can quickly cross the lineHow to approach your own health journey in a way that actually supports youThe mindset shift that changed how I show up in every version of my bodyIf you’ve been stuck in the cycle of “I’ll feel confident when…” or “I’ll show up when…,” I hope this chat gives you permission to do it now.Connect with Nicole:On her *new* Substack: https://nicolewaltersofficial.substack.com/On Threads: https://threads.net/nicolewaltersWATCH Tell Me More: http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeEpisode Sponsor:Try Gusto today at gusto.com/NICOLE, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Produced by Dear Media See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Let me start with a question that hasn’t left my mind all week… Why do billionaires exist at all?Friend, I need you to hear this one so pull up a chair... I’m breaking down the reality of wealth inequality in a way that’s hard to ignore. Because this isn’t just about money - it’s about power, policy, and a system that’s quietly shaping all of our lives.What happens when one person holds billions of dollars while others struggle to afford basic needs?

We talked about the quiet heartbreak of friendship fallouts in our last chat and in this Part 2, we're going deeper.This chat is about the truth most of us don’t want to admit: not everyone has the capacity to support you through every transition of your life. And that doesn’t automatically make them bad people, or you unlovable.I’m breaking down what it really means when friendships expire, how to stop turning every ending into a villain story, and why some relationships were never built for depth in the first place. We talk about seasonal friends, alignment, and the hard but freeing realization that letting go doesn’t always need a dramatic ending.We're chatting about:Why some friends simply don’t have the emotional capacity to hold your growthHow to release friendships without blame, drama, or guiltThe difference between people who benefit from your brokenness and those who celebrate your becomingHow to protect yourself in vulnerable seasons (especially post-divorce)The two alignment questions I now use to decide who gets access to my lifeThis is also about learning to trust yourself again. Life transitions can sharpen your intuition, your gut, and your ability to choose people who see your power now, not who you used to be.If Part 1 helped you feel less alone, Part 2 will help you feel clearer, stronger, and more at peace with who, and what, you’re leaving behind to make space for what’s next.Come chat with me over on Threads where you always get spicy Nicole at https://threads.net/nicolewalters and WATCH the show at http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeEpisode Sponsors:Use code WALTERS at checkout for 15% off your entire order at www.vionicshoes.com when you log into your account. 1 time use only.Try Gusto today at gusto.com/nicole, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.

No one really prepares you for this part: when your life changes, not everyone gets to come with you.In this 2-part chat we're covering one of your most requested topics: friendship fallouts. And I’m not talking about dramatic blow ups or petty drama. I’m talking about the quiet grief. The slow drifting. The realization that some friendships were tied to a version of you that no longer exists. Divorce didn’t just change my relationship status, it shifted my entire ecosystem. My family dynamics, my work, my sense of self… and yes, my friendships. Some people couldn’t meet me in this new season. Some revealed things about themselves I didn’t expect. And some simply didn’t have the capacity to support the transition I was moving through.I’m sharing the hard-earned truths I’ve learned along the way, including:Why certain friendships only work when you stay small, familiar, or unchangedWhat people’s reactions reveal when your life shifts in a big wayWhy losing friends during major transitions isn’t failure, it’s growthHow to tell the difference between seasonal friends and aligned onesIf you’re navigating divorce, a breakup, a major life pivot, or even just becoming a new version of yourself, this chat is for you. And don’t miss Part 2, where I go deeper into what I had to release - and what I had to protect - to build my life back better.Come chat with me over on Threads where you always get spicy Nicole at https://threads.net/nicolewalters and WATCH the show at http://nicolewalters.com/youtubeEpisode Sponsors:Use code WALTERS at checkout for 15% off your first order at www.vionicshoes.com.Thinking about dating again?

Y’all know how important exfoliation is to me but it doesn’t end with my skin. As you reflect on this year, I want to encourage you to look at the people in your life and ask, “Am I being too nice?!”In this chat I’m bringing you into what I’ve learned about being too nice and therefore overcompensating for the people in my life. Whether that’s family, friends, or employees, their trauma is not their fault but their healing journey is their responsibility, not mine and not yours.The reality is not everyone is coming into the next season with us. Our responsibility is not to heal others but to allow them to step into their healing journey. So friend, are you too nice?Thanks for being here!

In previous chats, we’ve talked about the expectation and pressure that exists to support our parents (especially for those of us who are first generation!) We were raised to stand in the gap of everyone else’s mess, even before building something of our own.The impulse to help everyone else before we help ourselves can burn us out QUICK and when you burn yourself out, you can’t help anyone.Friend, there is no return on investment when you are training people to use YOU as the resource.Don’t miss this chat!

I wish I could say that this is one of those chats where I have the answers, but the reality is it just isn’t. I’m struggling with this and if you have any answers or can relate, DM me. I receive it, friend!I’m heading to Atlanta for a business dinner soon and it’s bringing up feelings of grief and reminders of my former life. It’s like when the babies head to college and you go into their room and wish they were still there even though you know it’s right that they aren’t.If there is anything I’m learning it’s that the future doesn’t look like what you think it’s going to look like. The future is always better but maybe in a way that is different than you expected.Wherever you’re at right now, this isn’t the end. The journey is still continuing and God has incredible plans for you.Thanks so much for being here, friend.

Is it a privilege to be able to submit to your partner?At one point I thought submission was the problem, I mean just reading that word my make you want to run in the other direction.I get it and that’s why this chat is spicy and necessary.The fact is some of you may just not get this but those of you that do, GET IT.When you trust and respect your partner so much that you can submit to them it’s a gift. And that’s what I’m trying to teach my girls who are all at different places in dating.Friend if you’re shaking your head yes and need more understanding on what submission can look like in a healthy (but imperfect) relationship, grab a seat and let’s chat.Thanks so much for being here.

Is putting down our businesses the right choice when we’re entering motherhood?You probably heard this too if you’ve been through the baby season - “Get ready to put it all down for the next few years so you can focus on your family.”Y’all know my babies always come number 1 but the idea of setting it all down just hits different when you’re an older mom.In this chat we get to hear from Candace Mitchell, CEO of MYAVANA.

I’m taking you back to the moment when I realized sex was back on the table after divorce.Friend, we’re keeping it allll the way real in this chat and as you guessed it, this isn’t one to listen to around the kids so grab those headphones!In this chat we’re covering everything from that moment when I remembered people have sex when they’re dating (and that maybe I could also!) to a memorable waxing appointment and all I learned about getting READY.Dating and sex after divorce was tougher than it was at 21 but I am also tougher than I was at 21 so I could handle it and you can too.

Friend, you NEED to meet Dr. Jessica Taylor. When I first met Dr. Taylor and learned the level of impact she was making at home and at work, I knew I had to introduce her to you.From University President to foster parent to founding a leadership initiative, Jessica is doing a lot (by choice!) In this chat we talk about leadership advice for marginalized groups, what Dr. Taylor sees as the main issue with leadership today, and how we can connect with different generations at home and at work.Plus, we chat about being *healthy* super achievers! We cover so much in this chat and I believe you’ll leave it feeling enriched both professionally and personally.Friend, thanks for being here!

Do you have people in your life that don’t seem to share your same energy when you win? You know the type - they always have the time to point out how you COULD be doing better.If you’re a product of Tiger parenting, like me, this feels all too familiar… but not coming from your friends, your team, let alone your partner.If the red flags are waving then sometimes we need to call it what it is - jealousy!I know, I know, it’s weird to say, “this person is jealous of me.” It feels vain, it feels snobby, but when we break it down it is what it is.Friend, you may need this chat more than you realize.

How do we stay informed on politics and what’s going on in our world while maintaining our peace? In this chat, Alex and I chat about how we’re educating ourselves so we can make informed decisions without losing hope along the way.Friend, what I do know is that we can’t only listen to people and news sources that we agree with. We have to get outside our bubble and try to understand the policies and records of each candidate. The effort is worthwhile.How are you participating in the process?
