Kultivation with Kevie: A Self-Empowerment Podcast | Cultivating Courage, Confidence, Consistency & Creativity

Welcome to Episode 16 of the Next Level Voices Series on Kultivation w/ Kevie!
In this empowering episode of Kultivation w/ Kevie, I sit down with Nikki Allen, a Chicago-born author, songwriter, and screenwriter who turned her pain into purpose through creativity. Nikki shares the powerful story behind her novel Loved You, Hated You, a project that began as a song, evolved into a screenplay, and ultimately became a book about healing, forgiveness, and self-love.
We dive deep into her experiences overcoming abuse, reclaiming her voice, and learning the importance of “soul surgery” — doing the inner work to rediscover your worth and purpose. Nikki’s courage and wisdom will inspire you to confront your fears, share your story, and believe in love again.

What is Kultivation with Kevie: A Self-Empowerment Podcast | Cultivating Courage, Confidence, Consistency & Creativity?

Welcome to Kultivation with Kevie—a self-empowerment podcast where self-love, mindset, creativity, and mental health take center stage. Hosted by Kevie, a Black queer creative and seasoned registered nurse, this show invites you to grow through what you go through—with courage, confidence, and consistency.

Each episode blends candid storytelling, nostalgic reflections, and empowering conversations that celebrate healing, identity, purpose, and the messy magic of becoming. Whether you’re navigating burnout, rediscovering your creativity, or showing up as your fullest LGBTQ+ self, this space is for you.

✨ To cultivate means:
1. To develop or grow a quality, skill, or mindset
2. To foster transformation through care and intention
3. To refine oneself through experience and reflection
4. To uplift, encourage, and evolve

Let’s “kultivate” the version of you that you’ve always dreamed of becoming. 🌱
