She has an amazing story. This just shows that addiction and honestly anything can happen to anybody no matter who you are or how old you are. Another amazing interview!
Agreed! Thanks Lizzy!!
Gsyy j no ill bk ooijjj 😊

You’re really good at asking questions, with a sense of empathy and understanding. Love these episodes!
Thanks so much Leah!
Let me know what you guys think of Nicole’s story!
Its cool she doesnt play the victim card like most of the sensitive snowflakes these days. She owns up for her mistakes and kept it moving.
Awesome story and another good interview 👍
She's mostly lying. Nobody can make you shoot up. She's still on some type of pills, maybe legally prescribed, but can still tell she is lost and playing the victim card. The cycle continues in her life...sad
Nicole’s story was great, every interview you host is good. You are number one ☝️
@@blakeengland7784 thanks Blake!
I survived something so eerily similar Nicole. I absolutely understand what you are saying. Been through hell and back. DV is no joke. Thank you for sharing this. It really is so hard to break away. I get asked all the time why i didn't leave sooner. I always respond, Where was i supposed to go? But i went to a shelter... then eventually got clean and remarried to my soulmate and best friend.
Congratulations for breaking the chains and getting out and being happy !
@teresaacevedo1731 thank you, that means so much to me.
I’ve known Nicole since the 3rd grade. She has always been an amazing person and friend. Unfortunately, I had to watch her go through this mess. I was sure she was going to die which she actually did a couple times! So glad she was able to pull herself out of it and is now back with us. Hell of a story and I’m happy to have been at least a part of it.
prob talked to her twice
❤
Did you get to sleep with her
N no cheap blowy wtf
Gotta love them hazel eyes she definitely fucks
Nicole seems so down to earth and I was happy to watch this interview! What a journey, and the ability to share it, is truly amazing! ❤
A journey she would never have to experience if she hadn't fucked up to begin with. People bring bad shit on themselves most of the time and then brag about how strong and resilient they are just for merely surviving.
I truly enjoyed watching Nicole. She was so transparent, took full accountability for all of her mistakes, unlike some of the other women that you’ve interviewed…they all downplay their crimes.
Thank you Nicole for your honesty.
Like Marci still
I'm so impressed with her. She completely takes ownership and deflects any potential blame to others. This is why she's going to be able to continue to succeed.
God bless your heart, I had alopecia from 6th-grade and I was horribly made fun of, yet it was absolutely worse oh my parents even though i didn’t realize that until I was older. You remind me of my mom and dad and that’s a HUGE compliment. My hair grew back which made me extremely lucky…
It was very important that you covered how her actions affected her children by both drugs and DV . This type of neglect and honestly abuse inevitably will affect them the rest of their lives.
With that said, she’s a strong woman who has a very good personal story of perseverance and moving forward no matter. I thank her for sharing her story.
Good on you Nicole!! I love hearing success stories. I started getting hifh when i was 14 and i didnt quit for the next 10 years. I am six years clean now and I cant think of anyone who loves life more than me. Stay strong everybody. God loves you and if you genuinely ask for help God will not leave you hanging.
I love this podcast ☺️
Great video, glad to see that she managed to get past the addiction and is trying to do the right thing
Thanks Roy!

Enjoyed Your Story, Nicole... Thanks For Sharing It With Us!
Great interview. I love how accountable and transparent she is. Good for her!!!
“My name is Ian bick, and your tuned in.. to locked in with Ian bick, join me Ian bick… welcome to locked in with Ian bick.”
This 😂
My favourite story testimony so far from all ive watched! Such a huge encouraging message
Great episode man! I’m a ex heroin addict 8 years clean. I love uplifting, interesting content like this and you’re a great interviewer. Keep it up bro!
Thanks so much man🙏🙏
Wow, she came a long way! I'm so happy for her. Her story is so inspiring to how you can change your life by changing your mental state. Really great interview!
Refreshing to listen to someone, who I feel, is completely honest through the entire interview
Perhaps it's her delivery. Perhaps it's because she's well spoken and has told the story before.
Perhaps, your judgments are completely off and instead of doubting others stories, why don't you stop to think, "oh, it might be a delivery issue. Maybe they're nervous.
I'll hold my judgment "
@@southphillylilly Or maybe it's experience
This is the best interview I have seen! Excellent questions, superb answers. If we ask for God’s help, He is with us!!!
I'm dealing with the opioid crisis as well, my crisis is I don't have any... Lmao 😂😂😂
😂
Ain't that the truth!!! 😂
I absolutely love her accountability. That is why she is going to be successful. That’s the true sign of maturation. I hope and trust she continues to do well.
Awesome interview Ian, love the channel bro! Thank you sirrrr.
I just stumbled on your channel, what an insight into something that is so invisible to so many people, and highly visible to others. Thanks for bridging the divide.
I can't believe it doesn't have a million subscribers.
Thanks so much🙏 we’re growing daily
@@ianbickCT9:23
I love ur Story! I am glad you survived after going through the "lifestyle" bcuz many of us do NOT! I'm so glad you used ur whole experience in Prison to change urself and help others bcuz not many do that as well❤ Great interview
New subscriber….. you are the best interviewer ‼️‼️‼️‼️
I could almost tell my similar story to you ☺️
You don't understand how much he loves me, he needs to do this... I know someone who's gone through this mindset for years. That comment helped me understand certain things... being abused once is wrong, if they can do it once 🚩, don't hang around for more.
She is amazing and a huge inspiration! Thank you for having her on!!! 💕💕💕
Ty and God Bless you, Nicole. Thank you, Ian, absolutely one of your best interviews. ❤
You have no idea how ridiculously close of a story this is to me and my wife like she had to stay with me because she couldn’t shoot up. I knew all the chemistry behind it, and to be honest with you, we’ve produced money and drugs together and we were so strung out back in the day it was 😢 sad really and we finally got clean after 2 stints in prison
Didn't see it yet and gonna watch it later. I know it'll be great....looking forward.
Keep it up
Thanks! Let me know what you think!
@@ianbickCT Yeah, I'll do. I started watching it late in the night headphones on and felt asleep : )
Might sound weird...but it's a compliment in this case... But so far...it's so weird what trick addiction is playing on a humans mind... like the live to suffer and repeating the same mistake over and over again. Viscous circle. Sometimes people might need the forced time out to get out of it. Rock bottom moment maybe.
I have yet to hear your story so need to check that out. Your a great interviewer and this was another amazing story of strength & courage. Having had addiction issues myself I get everything she did & your right about the universe. We have to surrender & let our soul journey happen.❤
Nice work on that interview! I'm not quite sure how I ended up on your channel. I'm a middle-aged guy in the financial services industry. I've never set foot in a prison or known anyone personally who went to prison.
Hey Ian! I watch every episode and love the content. Keep up the amazing work 😊
Thanks so much!!
With an attitude like she has, she'll do great, I'm happy for her. You're doing a great service by giving these people a place to tell their story, it's part of getting better and moving on.
Yep Nicole means victory of the people... its hard to not have our lives un victory mode sometimes.
Oh dear...
I can relate.
I had a probation officer who came to my house and did not report me even though I had obvious evidence of drug usage (meth cooking) every where.
I REALLY like this girl 💟 Having been stuck on methadone since 2006, I found her description of the suboxone detox heartbreaking (& it happens everyday in jails all over the US).
Methadone was worse than suboxone. Methadone was like herion to me if not worse. Methadone withdrawals about killed me. I know it helps some, but most get 10 times more addicted to Methadone then herion. Its was so hard to get of Methadone. The clinic here would allow you to be one the dose you feel comfortable on. I went to 120mg a day. I saw other at closer to 500mg spilt doses. They were taking 250 mg split doses twice a day. So 500mg all together. Yes it does save some but its just as addictive. Scary.
Suboxone worked the best, it dont have opiates in it like methadone. Suboxone has opiate blocker in it. Methadone is still an opiate. Methadone is pretty much synthetic herion. So pretty much pure herion with no cuts at all. PURE. im not saying Suboxone is the only answer but its a hell of alot more safer and better then methadone.
@@joshuadill7849 why I stay at 50....bro 500mg a day? WHAT???
@@joshuadill7849 ..... Suboxone absolutely has an opioid in it. It's called Buprenorphrine. That is a synthetic opioid. Now, I developed a massive opiate addiction that resulted from being hurt overseas while in the Marines. The doctors at the Veterans hospital had me doped to the gills for years. At one point I was getting morphine 100 mg pills 3 times a day, Dilaudid 8 mg 4 times a day, and got 180 roxicodone 30 mg pills for up to 6 times a day for breakthrough pain. One day I got a new do tor who told me I was on 2 much and she took everything away and put me in Vicodin 7.5 mg and only gave me 90 a month or 3 a day. I went into instant, severe withdrawal from now having such a small dosage from what I was on so I started buying pills off the street. That soon turned into heroin which was cheaper then buying pills. Finally I was speedballing and injecting heroin and cocaine at the same time just to kill my pain. I went to rehab and they put me on methadone. That worked awhile but when I went to get clean and the withdrawal was worse then anything else including heroin. I started using again and after another 2 years did rehab again. This time I did Suboxone. Suboxone was a Godsend. I was on Suboxone for almost 3 years and then quit it cold turkey. I never had withdrawal symptoms and it was the easiest thing in my life. April 27th, 2024 will mark 8 years clean for me. Suboxone saved my life. And I used it as directed and never once had a problem and quit it with no side effects. My doctor gave me a small supply after I told him I was quitting in case I had any symptoms. He gave me 8 of the strips and told me to call him if I needed more or if I had withdrawal. I brought all 8 of those back to his office and put them on his desk to give them back to him.
I also got on methadone through a clinic in 2006! I got off of it in 2012, worse for me then any illegal drug I’d done.
I can relate a lot to her Testimony. What a great Podcast/Platform
Inspiring!
love to see the contrast between the men and womens prisons, love the content keep it up
Hi Ian, I am new to your channel. I think it’s amazing that people come out of prison and start your life over and a positive way God bless.
Wow it’s crazy that a pretty girl from a good family can have such a burning desire to get high despite the toll it took.Thank god you have gotten yourself well
I love this channel. Very professional and informative.
Amazing story! Thanks Ian and Nicole!!
I love the fact that she takes full responsibility for her actions! I have a similar story
She talks about what the human body goes through coming off that stuff but she's ALSO testimony to the resilience of the human, sitting there telling her story of such awfulness, such torture, and looking so gracious and ladylike with her nice hair and make up and tasteful clothes. I know people love JD Delay, and I do too, but I also like somebody who can come back out of these awful situations and be as polite and genteel and put back together as before, even if wiser and more understanding. I love how she looks like a suburban middle class lady gives a Real Housewives vibe, like she's lady-like plus. Not being clear.
I respect you for incuiring about her children. It's very clear that you are listening to your guests.
Thank you🙏
You are so cool Ian!!! These stories really are awesome. I'm so proud of you and everyone on here I'm so proud of you all!!!
Thanks so much!!!
just discovered your channel, you are brilliant Ian - pretty intense and confronting but so funny and positive, really interesting content and such intelligent questions
Thank you so so much🙏
I have only spent 3 days in jail but my brothers have spent a combined 40 years locked up Ian I love your show.. I have struggled with meth addiction which I have hidden because in my family it's looked down on
I’m sure you’ve heard this many times but 12 step programs work. I cleaned up 38 years ago in AA. People in the program are a pain in the neck but after time you will be free of your addiction and then make deep friendships. Eventually you will find that there is so much reward in helping others which is the opposite of what your addiction allows you. All the holding hands and shouting hi is crap and did not exist when I started but you have to get over it. I think God made a bargain with me at the start. « If you can put up with these people I will let you stay sober. « Good luck and get a service job as soon as you start.
Dam Ian you look like a computer programmer I would never thought you did a day in prison. Just started watching you. Love your show
Haha thank you so much
Awesome interview and an amazing lady.
I was in prison with this chick and I traded her 10 Raymond noodles for two mascara. She shorted me on the mascara. They were only half full. Like wtf
😂
The humility of this woman 👏🏻
Only woman who was honest because she finally had to deal with the consequence of her action
Thank you for sharing your story.. Truly much Hope in this... You are truly a Beautiful Person!!!
Your questions are on point . Great job
As a addict in recovery for the last four years, I feel something really off about her…..
Is it the being strung out on subutex? 😂
I have Multiple Sclerosis
@@Harlow_Khmer I wasn’t strung out on subutex. That was the last 5 years. The talc isn’t meant for the body
@@NicoleVictorious1 What is talc?
@@NicoleVictorious1naw u got perfection barbie is fitting
Bless her heart! Her neck breaks out when she started talking about her son!
Shout-out to Ms. Nicole, still having the spark in her eyes, and still looking nice!
Also, well done to her parents, and to the dentist, they all did terrific job!
Women with southern accent just hit different!😉
Great one. Your channel is going to explode brother.
The way this story resonates with my past is insane. And my name is nicole, which isnt my real name 😂 i am so proud of this woman ❤
Incredible inner strength & endurance!
I'm impressed by your story. Thank God you're still alive, and able to tell it, and you're now helping other women. Many girls don't choose to be victims of domestic violence, but you did. You were popular in high school, you had many friends, you had lovely parents who cared for you, yet chose for that man because he was violent, because he was a drug dealer, and because you thought it was exciting. That's the hidden nature of women, they hate nice men, they're looking for somebody who will dominate them, and even beat them up, because their brain or their belly tells them that this is a real man. So they learn the hard way. But God came to you, He saved you, and he has taught you the way He wants your life to be, I'm so happy for you. And that last line, is a really good advice
Thank you for listening!
Nobody chooses to be a domestic violence victim and nobody expects it neither but once it starts your brain does not think the same. Men are victims too but instead they took Men’s Mental Health Awareness month and changed it to Pride Month. That speaks volumes and shows why so many men suffer in silence or they aren’t seen as being victims too by society!
I respectfully disagree. I have no “hidden nature” that leaves me hating men or wanting one to dominate me or beat me up. I’ve been married to a loving, kind man who has treated me beautifully for forty-one years. That’s the kind of man I was seeking and felt I deserved when I decided to marry him all those years ago.
@@godblessyou7376 young girls do this, when they are confused. You have had the blessing to meet with the right man, in which you recognised the right man for yourself. I am happy for you. For your marriage to have been so succesfull, your man must have had a slight advantage over you. Just the right amount of strength, and also kindness so that you respect him, and you feel safe with him. That is what a woman wants in a man.
Just in time for my drive home. Keep it up Ian.
🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing some hard things.
Ian, you're a really good interviewer.
Thank you so much🙏
What a lovely lady she is!.. Her story is inspiring.
I found your show by accident today. I will be a new subscriber.
Welcome!!! Thanks so much for the support
Love these case stories
What a strong and brave woman!!
I can't believe that someone would beat up someone as beautiful as you ❤
I love this story of a life reclaimed.
🔥keep the good podcasts rolling!
🙏🙏🙏
Awesome interview!!!
Oh wow I’m from Louisiana also , Morgan city which is south Louisiana, I have a powerful testimony had my only son while incarcerated, it’s been 15 years since that horrible time , I was addicted to drugs
You ask good questions and then don't talk over the answers, great job as an interviewer. What a great story of hope
Thanks man
She takes accountability for everything, I like it!
Love the content keep it up g
Thanks Leon🙏
Those 80’s were the shit. Now u can’t find them and if u can they are gel.
You know what, you’re not so bad, Ian bick. Stay locked in (with Ian bick)
😂
Amazing interview!! Your ???’s are perfect!!
This channel is done as hell. Ian always asks the right questions
I noticed how God intervined when called. The greatest gift was to be able to accept responsibility for her action past and present
I appreciate her willingness to accept 100% responsibility and accountability. however..those things are still attainable while accepting and understanding it probably didn’t start with her.
Generational dysfunction is the real deal and early childhood puts us on a healthy or unhealthy path. The attachment style we learn as young children travel with us forever until we seek help to stop that cycle.
I’m from New Orleans. Caddo parish is a smile country town that’s why she got away with what she got away with
Coming from literally all sides of the domestic abuse issue, you always have a choice to stay or go, to hit or to be hit.
Actually, it is not at all that simple! At all!
She is amazing 😍
Best episode so far
I was bought up in an abusive and controlling home and subsequently went on to be in several abusive relationships. I've been single now for 15 years as I just can't trust my own judgement.
I love these women that say i would never sell myself but they are doing that.
This was great podcast and she's awesome
It’s a good day when Ian uploads
ty Nicole for sharing your story
Nicole love you ❤ I never knew we came from the same place of abuse
She’s so pretty and interesting. I’m sorry she had to go through all this
Your channel is underrated.
🙏
I had the same mindset that he wasn’t hurting my daughter so it’s okay, until the day he hurt me with her in the bed right next to me, I grabbed what I could and ran for my life.
to allow the prescription of opiates so freely in society is the true crime
She looks like an older version of Piper from Orange is The New Black.. her smile especially 😇
Have you ever thought about getting a cohost? I think it could be a great help, and here is why.
Some of your interviewing tactics are odd - there are routinely missed opportunities. At 35:13 she says, "Now, my last name while I was incarcerated, was either going to kill me or going to help me. And I used it to let it help me."
You then asked about her nickname - which was a great question because it had such a great story! but.. You never followed up on the importance of her name. Saying her name could kill her or help her is a powerful statement, and I am still left wondering why she said it.
I feel like a cohost could really help catch things like this (I have noticed similar mishaps in other episodes, I will start pointing them out when I see them!) because it probably happens because you have a lot going on. Its hard for one person to run a show and do everything!
Please consider a co host :)
I think he does a great job. Too many people talking/asking questions lends itself to people talking over each other. Keep it as is.
