Our Dead Dads

What happens when profound loss becomes the turning point for a new beginning? On this heartfelt episode of Our Dead Dads, we sit down with Nikki Critchett, a life coach from the UK and the heart behind Tomorrow's You Life Coaching. Nikki has faced unimaginable personal tragedies, including the losses of her mother, sister, and father. She shares her inspiring journey from grief to healing, offering practical advice for those navigating similar paths. Her story is raw, real, and filled with actionable steps to help you find your way through the darkest times.
Family dynamics can be complicated, especially when tragedy strikes. We uncover the touching narrative of a family coming together in the face of a terminal cancer diagnosis. From reconciling with an estranged alcoholic brother to managing the immense stress on their aging father, this episode showcases the power of crisis to mend broken relationships. You'll hear about the emotional rollercoaster of dealing with long-standing family issues, including jealousy and abuse, and the bittersweet reconciliation that can come from facing life's hardest moments together.
The path to self-acceptance is often paved with the debris of false beliefs and past traumas. Through the lens of Nikki's experiences, we explore how shifting mindsets and letting go of limiting beliefs can unlock true potential and happiness. From the struggles of losing a parent at a young age to the powerful realization that self-worth comes from within, Nikki's insights are both profound and practical. And to lighten the mood, we end with a rapid-fire round where Nikki shares her inspirations and life aspirations, leaving you with a blend of heartfelt wisdom and a touch of fun.
