THE NIKKI SHARP EFFECT
- Tell us Nikki Sharp about what you do
I’m a Transformation Coach, Wellness Expert, podcast host, and 2x best-selling author. I specialize in helping women men and women uncover the root causes of self-sabotage and bad habits such as emotional eating, co-dependent relationships, and lack of self-love through result-driven exercises and coaching. I’m incredibly passionate about working with individuals both one-on-one and in group programs, where every client sees tremendous success in their goals.
My community knows me for sharing vulnerably about life on Instagram (www.instagram.com/nikkisharp/) in addition to my podcast A Sharper Life (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-sharper-life/id1616888204). I think this is important to do for any coach, teacher, or mentor as it allows others to feel connected to your teachings and know that they can overcome whatever they are going through in life.
2. What do you think has helped you achieve your success?
It’s funny because I never set out to be an entrepreneur, coach, or expert in my field. This was the result of going through tremendous challenges in my life, including two eating disorders, depression, chronic acne, being in debt, in addition to being in toxic/co-dependent relationships. By healing myself of all of these without the help of doctors, pharmaceuticals, or any external device, I started to realize the power of what I was implementing on myself. I became my own best (and sometimes worse) client to see what worked, and what didn’t.
Because I’ve always shared the journey I’m going through with my community, they have seen me transform from the former, to who I am now. Where my business is thriving, clients see the most incredible changes when working with me, and my life is a complete 180.
I believe my success is down three things:
1) Not giving up. This means both for myself when I felt I’d never overcome my challenges, to when business isn’t going as planned.
2) Staying positive, even when you don’t want to be.
3) Putting my client’s success ahead of money.
3. What advice would you give to young girls who wants to follow your footsteps?
Put your joy and happiness above all else. So often women fall into the trap of going into careers because they are looking for external validation from a parent, or they focus solely on their income. I see others go into relationships that don’t truly satisfy them, only to come work with me later because they are unhappy. I realize it sounds cliché to follow your joy. Yet it truly is the thing that if you ask yourself every day “what will bring me joy today?” you will have a more fulfilling life, and one where you can push through the harder moments.
4. What is your vision in the next 5 years?
Ha! I don’t have enough space to write it all. I have such big plans for my signature course The Ultimate Transformation Program, which has been growing faster than I can imagine because of the results clients have. I’d love to start a family and learn to balance a career I love with raising children. I also dream of helping more people than I currently do because I see the transformation they have and this is my biggest passion, and purpose in life.
