Welcome to Live A Little, the space for soft conversations with a big soul. Nikki Lilly is exploring the weird in-between of modern life – where you can have a lot going on but still wonder if you’re missing something deeper. This podcast is not about having the answer – it’s about figuring it out.
in 2026, we’re all about not having friends that are copy-paste identical to you.
on this episode of live a little, nikki lilly is diving into why it’s so important to be surrounded by people who don’t think, look or live exactly like you in order to grow!
when we’re young, similarity draws us together – but, as we get older, differences in life experiences can deepen our connections and world view!
nikki is also calling out the pressure to have friends at the same life stage, the fear that different opinions are red flags and why people-pleasing made her shrink her own views to match everyone else's.
this one's about letting go of the "you're just like me" trope and realising that the healthiest friendships gently challenge you without making you feel small.
