Hi there…I'm Nikki. I'm fifty-two years-old and I've been married to my husband, Mike, for thirty years. Mike is the Property Manager for a private residence on Lake Charlevoix. And me...I'm a writer and a podcaster and mom to the Lou-Crew; Mason (26), Ellie (24), Mabel (20), and Bram (20). Most days I'm just trying to figure it all out as best I can. Oh yeah…and I also ~~have~~ don't have Parkinson's Disease. Yep...you read that right. Stick around and I'll fill you in on that story. It's a pretty good one. Grab a cup of coffee or cocoa or a glass of wine…no judgment here…and join me on this journey. Buckle up. It tends to get a little bumpy.
