Quotes

“Returning to intimacy after having a baby does not necessitate penetration and everyone thinks that.” - Dr. Kat Vigo

“There are plenty of reasons why a postpartum vagina is not set up for success sexually.” - Dr. Kat Vigo

“Our brains are largely rewired during and after pregnancy and it’s 100% focused on keeping that new baby alive.” - Dr. Kat Vigo

“We as women should be having the best sex of our lives throughout our lives.” - Nikki Spo

“The more we talk about these things the more people are able to ultimately come home to themselves, to feel happy and secure in their bodies and minds, and so that they can go and thrive and be the best versions of themselves.”

Divorce & Co-parenting with Michelle Dempsey-Multack PART 2. Ep. 157

Tuesday, August 20, 2024 • Duration 32:32

Welcome back fam to PART 2 of Divorce & Co-parenting with Michelle Dempsey-Multack. If you have not checked out part 1 it is sooo good. Anybody who is going through a divorce or separation or if you know somebody who is, I highly recommend you checking out part 1. Today we are getting started with part 2 so let's do this!

In this episode…

Rediscovering what you like and who you are
Becoming a better parent
Guilt vs. shame
Social media hate
Creating your own identity
Finding your co-parenting groove
Introducing new partners to your children

Quotes

“You gotta make sure you’re with somebody you want and not somebody you need.” - Michelle Dempsey-Multack

“Co-parenting is underrated, it's made me a better parent.” - Nikki Spo

“You really have to understand the difference between guilt and shame. Are you guilty of doing something bad or do you feel ashamed because somewhere along the line you believed you weren’t allowed to have your own identity as a mother or a person.” - Michelle Dempsey-Multack

“Social media has become so black and white but when it comes to divorce you have to live in the gray. Get comfortable in the gray as a co-parent because that's your life” - Michelle Dempsey-Multack

“What good co-parenting is is supporting your child's relationship with the other parent, staying in your lane and letting them be the parent they need to be, and following your parenting plan. It doesn’t need to be more difficult than that.” - Michelle Dempsey-Multack

Narcissism in Relationships with Dr. Rachna Buxani-Mirpuri (Part 2). Ep. 148

Tuesday, May 14, 2024 • Duration 57:44

What’s up fam! Today we are welcoming back Dr. Rachna Buxani-Mirpuri for another conversation about narcissism and how to navigate it. This is part two of a multi-part series that we are doing and I'm really honored to have this opportunity to chat with her again. In our previous episode together, we talked about some of the different types of narcissism and narcissism in general and today we are focusing on the effects of being in a relationship with a narcissistic person. Tune in!

In this episode…

Spectrum of personality traits
Relationship patterns of narcissism
Love bombing
The 3 C’s
Red flags
Trauma bonding
DIMMER - what it means and what to look for
Gaslighting

Quotes:

“Narcissists come across as being really curious about you, but really what they're doing is they're collecting as much information so that they can use it against you.” - Dr. Rachna Buxani-Mirpuri

“Trauma bonded is trauma occurring within the relationship and that is the bond between the two.” - Nikki Spo

“Gaslighting mostly occurs by a person who you trust.” - Dr. Rachna Buxani-Mirpuri

“Lying is a denial of reality and gaslighting goes on to dismantle the target.” - Dr. Rachna Buxani-Mirpuri

“I've learned over the years that I can't control how other people treat me or what they do to me or what they say to me or how they try to make me feel. I can only control my reaction to things and how I respond to those situations.” - Nikki Spo

52. What I Learned About Giving Birth - Nikki Spo

Season 1 · Episode 52

Tuesday, June 28, 2022 • Duration 15:15

Okay! So this week on The Know I'm giving you all the info on what I learned the two times I gave birth. I had my first son in 2018 and my second son in 2019... and with my baby girl on the way, I've been reminiscing about what I was taught about childbirth. When you're pregnant, there are usually a ton of people who love to tell you what to do with your body (ummmmmmm... let's not even start with how BIG of a problem that is)... and I am not here to tell you what to do with yours. But! I do want to give you some insight into how I made decisions regarding the birth of my two children, and how I worked together with my doctor, my partner, and my doula. Also - I share some tips and tricks about.... pushing... that I picked up along the way.

Please keep an open mind! I am truly speaking from personal experience. As always - do your own research, consult with your doctor, and come up with a plan that works best for you!

xoxo!

Nikki Spo!
