  • when christmas isn’t very merry
    2025/12/25
    christmas isn't always the most wonderful time of the year, and on this episode of live a little, nikki is getting real about the two sides of christmas - the magical, nostalgic side vs the heavy, complicated reality that so many actually experience. nikki is opening up about how christmas used to be her favourite time of year as a kid (hello argos catalogue and santa tracker!), but how health trauma and life's complications have made it feel more like survival than celebration. she talks about the pressure to perform happiness when you're not feeling it and why days like christmas can feel so much heavier when you're just not okay. she's also unpacking why it's okay to not love christmas, why "just be grateful" is actually really damaging to hear, and how she's learning to make winter feel a bit lighter through small things. this one's for anyone who's ever felt like they're bringing the mood down just by existing, or who's masking their way through a day that's supposed to be “the happiest time of year”. don't forget to subscribe and catch new episodes every thursday!

    everyone has a cringe era, and on this episode of live a little, nikki lilly wants to re-embrace being cringe all over again. nikki is unpacking why we have lost the ability to just... exist without worrying about being perceived. she also gets real about constantly questioning whether she actually likes something or just likes it because everyone else does, and how exhausting it is to never know what's genuinely yours. we're also reminiscing about the days of embarrassing fashion phases, glee club, and urban dictionary deep dives - and why skipping cringe = not being able to find your true self. grab your tea and settle in - because this one's about to make you want to do something embarrassing this week (in the best way). don't forget to subscribe and catch new episodes every thursday!
