So What! Why Should you Listen?
Because creativity isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity. It’s part of being human. Nikki believes in teams thriving on fresh ideas, leaders making bold decisions, and individuals finding fulfilment in their work. That’s the promise of unlocking creativity—the sweet spot where mental health, work-life balance, and peak performance intersect.
Nikki’s Journey Includes:

Host of The Creative Switch Podcast: Nikki interviews creativity experts, mentors, and talented creatives, remarkable people who have transformed their lives through switching on their creative passions. Their stories act as the catalyst for inspiring the sensibly successful to switch on their unexpressed creativity and thrive.
Finalist in The Peoples Book Prize and The Page Turner Awards: Her debut novel, Pivotal, explored the multiple paths a life can take at the crossroads of each significant decision. It wasn’t just a story; it was a thought-provoking trigger for self-reflection.
Why Care About Creativity
Why care about creativity? Because it transforms workplaces and communities. It boosts employee engagement, fuels innovation, and creates a ripple effect of positive change. When we prioritize well-being and creativity, we build rounded individuals ready to perform at their best.
Beyond The Bio...

Her creative ideas come at her like wild horses waiting to be tamed, and she’s determined for everyone to realise creativity is as essential as your morning coffee or a daily walk in nature.
