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.
welcome back to live a little with nikki lilly... your girl is back from los angeles and the oscars, and she's ready to debrief!
in this episode, nikki takes us through the entire LA trip - from the 35-degree heat that had her sweating off her makeup (goodbye bomber jacket, hello vest tops) to the absolutely chaotic rush hour drive home that should've been 50 minutes but took two and a half hours.
but the real tea? the oscars carpet. nikki gets honest about the entire experience - how it actually went, whether her anxieties from the pre-oscars episode came true, and what it felt like to be there in real time.
she reflects on watching back her pre-oscars podcast episode and realising she answered all her own questions with positive outcomes, which feels full circle and incredibly special.
nikki also opens up about something unexpected - how live a little has become a vehicle for making genuine friendships in an industry where that's really hard. she talks about seeing charithra chandran at the same hotel (they're on the same floor!), emily carey sending her the sweetest message on oscars day, and how interviewing people for the podcast bridges that gap from "parasocial friends on social media" to actual real connections.
this is an episode of gratitude, reflection, and remembering to hold onto the light.
