Have you ever looked around at your life and thought, Who am I outside of the roles I play?

In this episode, I sit down with Brittany Hansen, Co-Founder of Viiision, for a real and honest conversation about life, family, business, and everything in between. Brittany shares her personal transformation stories, starting with early motherhood at 21 years old and raising four kids, including two boys living with autism. We talk about what autism parenting really looks like day-to-day and how it shaped her view on emotional growth and emotional healing.

Brittany opens up about how easy it is to lose yourself when you spend years putting everyone else first. She shares how she worked through self-discovery and emotional healing, and how she started building self-confidence again after years of focusing only on motherhood. We also talk about how to rebuild your identity when life looks different than you expected, and how finding your passion later in life can lead to redefining success on your own terms.

Today, Brittany is not only a mom but also a business leader who takes part in trade missions with the U.S. government to expand her company internationally. Her story is proof that personal transformation stories do not happen overnight, but when you stay committed to self-discovery and emotional growth, so much is possible.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering who you are beyond your roles or trying to rebuild your confidence after major life changes, this conversation will feel like sitting down with a friend who truly gets it.

Tune in for a conversation that reminds you it's never too late to redefine what success and happiness look like.

Here’s to your next chapter,

Nikki

Hey everyone! In this solo episode gone sideways, I'm taking a moment to catch you up on my whirlwind April and the amazing things happening in my world right now.

It's a quick summary of the month, where I dive into my awesome experience at a content creator retreat in Austin (where I was the oldest person there), share some highlights from my travels to Vegas and Phoenix, and reveal the *insane* news that my podcast downloads have increased over 100% this month!

Plus, I'm spilling the details on my upcoming adventures to San Diego with my girlfriends and Colombia with some travel buddies.

As always, thanks for being the reason Round Two Podcast is what it is. I am so happy you're here.

Here's to your next chapter,

Sometimes, the hardest part of building a startup is realizing it’s time to change direction.

In this episode, I talk with Burhan Syed, one of my friends from the Techstars program, and the co-founder of Rondah AI, an AI dental receptionist that's changing the way clinics handle calls, book appointments, and support their staff.

Burhan shares his unexpected path from running a startup in nightlife tech to building a voice-powered solution that improves clinic workflow through smarter, faster scheduling automation. It's a real look at what happens when founders are honest with themselves, make a thoughtful startup pivot, and focus on real-world problems like missed calls and overwhelmed staff in dental clinics.

You'll hear why Burhan pivoted from a nightlife reservation platform to healthcare and how his early jobs and side hustles shaped his entrepreneurship journey. We also talk about what it was really like going through Techstars, how Rondah AI works, and why dental practices are embracing this kind of receptionist software. Burhan also explains what it takes to build healthcare automation that’s actually useful, the impact of missed calls on clinic revenue, and how his team is scaling a startup in dental tech.

Whether you're deep into your own startup or just curious about how AI is transforming industries like dentistry, this one’s worth a listen.

Most people dream about packing up and traveling the world, but few talk about what that life is really like. How do you find connection and purpose when you're always on the move?

In this episode, I chat with my friend Salvatore Manzi about what it’s really like to live a digital nomad lifestyle. Salvatore has traveled all over, from Kansas to New Zealand to Italy, and his life is full of unique, funny, and thoughtful travel stories.

We talk about how his search for a sense of belonging led him around the world and how years of international travel helped him realize that the comfort he was looking for had to start from within. He also shares how working in coffee shops and doing tour guiding eventually led him to become a communication coach, helping people find their voice and feel more confident when speaking in front of others.

We also get into what the nomadic lifestyle really looks like, how cultural differences shape our experiences, and how travel can lead to real personal growth. Salvatore explains what it was like to teach and work while living abroad and how he now helps others speak with clarity and purpose as a communication coach.

Hit play and get a look at how travel, change, and self-discovery all connect.

Why do so many creative professionals struggle to get paid on time, even after working with well-known brands? It’s a common issue in the creative economy that often gets overlooked.

In this episode, I’m joined by my friend and fellow Techstars Accelerator alum, David Akinyemi. David’s journey into the creative economy is anything but typical. He started out flipping sneakers in high school, launched a food delivery startup in college, and eventually found himself modeling for known brands. Through all of that, he found a huge gap in the industry: creative professionals often wait weeks or even months to get paid. That experience led to a major startup pivot.

Originally, David and his co-founder joined Techstars with a fintech concept called Tux, focused on protecting stock compensation for tech employees. But after seeing the financial pain points in his own creative work, they shifted direction and built FACE, a platform that helps creatives get paid faster and more reliably.

We talk about how the idea for FACE came to life, why the current system doesn’t work for freelancers, and how David and his co-founder are tackling the problem of cash flow for creatives. If you’ve ever struggled with managing cash flow as someone doing freelance or contract work, this conversation is going to resonate.

You’ll walk away from this episode with a better understanding of what it takes to build for a community you’re part of, and why listening to real-world pain points can lead to the most meaningful solutions.

Put on your earphones and let this episode spark the thought that maybe the solution you're looking for is the one you were meant to create.

Nikki

Ever felt like you’ve done everything right, built the career, hit the milestones, achieved success, but still feel totally disconnected from your life?

So many of us reach a point where we realize that chasing titles and money doesn’t automatically bring fulfillment. That’s exactly where this week’s guest, Eric Mech, found himself.

Eric spent 24 years climbing the ranks in the auto industry, eventually becoming a partner in multiple car dealerships. From the outside, it looked like he had it all. But inside, he was feeling empty, stuck, and out of alignment with who he truly was.

In this episode, he opens up about how he hit reset, walked away from everything he knew, and discovered his real purpose. We talk about what it means to live a purpose driven life, how to recover from burnout, and why your origin story, the one you might think makes you not enough, might actually be your biggest strength. Eric is now the head coach at The Purpose Company, where he helps people reconnect with their purpose through purpose coaching and step into the most fulfilling chapters of their lives.

If you’re craving a fresh start, curious about how to find your purpose, or just need a reminder that it’s never too late to pivot, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

Listen now and let this episode be the spark that reminds you that fulfillment doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from finally being who you really are.

Here’s to your next chapter,

Nikki

What do you do when life completely blindsides you? When the plan you had for your future disappears in a moment? How do you move on after losing the person you thought you'd spend forever with?

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Kelly LaVallie to talk about healing after loss, finding strength during grief, and learning how to start over, especially when life doesn’t go the way you thought it would.

Kelly shares the story of losing her husband to a sudden heart attack, how she navigated the trauma with her daughters, and how she found her way back to herself in the middle of the pain.

We dive into what starting over after 40 really looks like, the emotional weight of divorce, and the beauty that can come from embracing authenticity, even when it’s messy. We also talk about the loneliness so many of us feel, especially in the age of social media, and how sharing your story can be the thing that connects us all.

If you’re going through a hard season, feeling stuck, or wondering what’s next after everything changes, this episode is for you.

Here’s to your next chapter,

Hey everyone! In this solo episode, I'm wrapping up March with all the highlights from my incredible 2.5-week adventure in Mexico's Baja Peninsula.

I chose this destination because of astrocartography – which is basically mapping where the planets were when you were born and how their energy affects you in different locations on Earth. My Mars line (all about career and entrepreneurship energy) runs right through this part of Mexico, and I wanted to see if it would give me that boost I've been looking for. And it sure did.

I came back feeling completely refreshed and energized with some amazing new connections, including my business coach who I'm so excited to work with.

I also chat about my mind-blowing conversation with Eric from The Purpose Company (you guys are going to love his episode coming soon!) and give you the rundown on all the amazing guests we had this month.

As always, I'm just so grateful for this platform and for all of you who keep tuning in!
