What’s Coming Up Next

I am currently working on 5…FIVE!…separate projects and collaborations!

They are all different and all fun and all meaningful and I can’t wait to share them with you as they each rollout.
Be sure to watch this space and, if you’re a Just Shake It Off subscriber, your email each day…for news and updates as each project is launched.

In the meantime, enjoy a little sneak peek at everything that’s been going on.

Thank you for continuing to read and support Just Shake It Off. Last week marked my two-year “blog-iversary”….two years since I hit “publish” and launched this site. I had no idea what I was doing on the technical side. And I had no idea if anyone would be there to listen to the story side. Two years in…and I never could have dreamed it this big or this impactful.

Cheers to two years! And to YOU…for teaching me to dream bigger.

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 (23), 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.
