NIKKI’S STORY
For two decades I hung onto life the same way you would to the back of a fast-moving car – painfully scraping along the tarmac, knuckles white, tightly clenched in fear and struggling to hold on. By the time I was 25 I was a heroin addict who had faced several near-death experiences yet continued to chase my addiction through rehabilitation centres across continents. I was also a divorced Mother of two, completely alienated from family and friends, bound by a string of toxic relationships with a messy trail of destruction that I had to face alone. My blessing was that I was also a convicted criminal facing a prison sentence.
“I had been sober for six years before being sentenced, so I had mastered the art of survival. It was ‘living’ that was beyond me.“
The truth was I hated myself. My self-loathing ran so deep that addiction, desperation, betrayal and crippling anxiety were all just part of my ‘normal’. The penny dropped in prison where it wasn’t about getting clean anymore or grasping at the leftovers that life had handed me. I had been sober for six years before being sentenced, so I had mastered the art of survival. It was ‘living’ that was beyond me. Regardless of my damaged self, I realized that living my life for others had become unsustainable and that no one could ever give me what I had been craving all along – the love I never had for myself.
“My life began to transform with me at the wheel. Slowly, steadily and significantly.”
A random self-esteem course I took in prison became the catalyst and my beacon for a profoundly life changing journey of self-discovery. I not only learnt how powerful I can be in my own life, but that I had the right to choose how I want my life to be, how I want my relationships to manifest, where I want to be successful and so much more. This pursuit of inner connection highlighted so many hidden aspects of who I was and ignited in me a fierce determination to piece together the life I wanted to live. To know yourself, love yourself and participate fully in your life’s journey is the key to anyone’s personal evolution. But more than that, it holds the potential to power dreams into reality.
”I decided to dedicate my life to helping others find their freedom.”
After having worked extensively in the field of addiction treatment, I realized that the power of self-development is so profoundly all-encompassing that I decided to dedicate my life to helping others find their freedom – not only from addiction, but rather from the prisons created by their own self-doubt and negative belief systems.
The extensive offering of Nikki Munitz & Associates is a direct manifestation of my life’s purpose. A carefully constructed yet vast network of practitioners and providers in self-development, rehabilitation and recovery and holistic wellness for ANYONE wanting to live their life well.
