i'm a kind person, not a nice person

welcome back to live a little... this week's episode title might sound a bit harsh, but hear nikki out - because she's learned there's a massive difference between being a nice person and being a kind person. nikki dives into why she doesn't want to be nice anymore - and no, it's not about being mean. she gets real about how being "nice" became a survival mechanism for her, especially in her teenage years. being nice meant putting everyone else's feelings above her own just to be accepted. nikki opens up about shrinking herself in friendships that were never meant for her and being so scared of confrontation that she'd agree with whatever anyone said just to avoid being dropped (spoiler: she got dropped anyway). but being kind? that's different. being kind means having integrity, holding boundaries, telling the truth even when it's uncomfortable, and protecting what's real - including yourself. nikki shares how she's shifted from clutching tighter to toxic friendships to being comfortable walking away from things that don't serve her anymore, and why she'd rather be uncomfortable for five minutes than abandon herself for five years. if you've ever apologised for existing, watered dead plants, or stayed on the wrong train way too long... this one's for you. don't forget to subscribe and don't miss new episodes every thursday!
