She promotes body neutrality and acceptance, self-love and mental health, while also sharing her struggles with each of these topics. In her words, she \u2018took the wall down\u2019, stopped editing her photos and just started showing up as herself, which has helped her to connect in a very real way to her ~65,000 followers on Instagram.<\/p>\n

On today\u2019s episode, we talk about what life is really like as a self-love influencer, how Nicole had to re-navigate her presence on social media after the very public Brendan Leipsic NHL scandal, and her commitment to ensuring her personal values are at the forefront of everything she shares.<\/p>\n
