Wow it’s so crazy to hear you talk about another baby, after watching you for so many years and I remember years ago you were set on never getting pregnant yourself due to your pain. You’re made to be a mumma and did so well through your pregnancy!
I actually really like that you go off on tangents when you answer questions. Most Q&A videos feel too short to me. Or the person constantly directs you to go watch their other video or read their book if you want to know the answer. I’m always like, why did you pick that question if you didn’t want to answer it in this video? LOL! Anyway, keep the tangents coming. 😀
I LOVE how open and honest you are about everything, especially motherhood and all the random things that go with it. I'm about 8 weeks away from being a mom for the first time ever and there are SOOOO many little(and big) things that people just don't talk about in regards to mothethood and the female body. We're all expected to just figure it out.....and I've been having so many panic attacks about the not knowing. Being able to listen to you just talk about whatever is on your mind without editing yourself is just so calming for me. Also you're right. Chiropractor is life.
Watching your at home birth inspired me so much, I legit cried the whole way through. I even told my BF that this is what I would love to do. You are so strong and I love your positive energy. And I agree it’s so good just to go outside and breathe the air and just absorb the outside energy. Such a great video 💙
Love this video! I’ve watched your videos from my mid to late teens and now I’m almost 22 and the advice you give and the content you produce is so beautiful! You give such open advice that is well thought and use your platform as a great role model that I’ve looked to! Thank you! Side note I’m an anthropology major in c and in my sociocultural classes we talk about perspective/world view all the time so you worded the advice about what the internet shows you versus real life is pretty spot on! There’s social constructs that people don’t really think about or find information for themselves most times.
Thank you for your videos Nikki. I am from Oregon but I’ve been stuck in Sydney,Australia as my boyfriend can’t leave the country right now with closed borders. There’s a lot of stress and anxiety right now and I miss home so much. I was supposed to finally move back home this year after 3 years and start to settle. Seeing your life and it’s realness and homemaking in your videos help so much. Thank you for doing what you do.
I personally think it’s creepy how some Internet personalities or even tv stars won’t show their babies faces. They blur them out or show the baby’s lower half. It’s just odd. Like maybe don’t show the baby at all instead of using the child as a sort of teaser. I love seeing Baby Logan! I think as a long time viewer it means even more to me because I feel like I’ve “known” you and Dan for years! He is a cute baby!!!!
Watched you in Louisiana and preparing for Hurricane Laura! I needed to hear God is in control. My daughters company wants them to go to work tomorrow and I’m worried about her and my Mom and brother live in mobile homes, plus the people I don’t even know. God’s here no matter what!!!
If I would have had a home birth I wouldn't be here today. After I gave birth, last month to my 1st baby, I ended up having a severe hemorrhage and lost 3 liters of blood, had to have 5 blood transfusions, and ended up in the ICU. I wouldn't have been able to get to the hospital in time for them to save my life if I had a home birth. So I am very thankful and grateful to have given birth at the hospital.
I know I already commented, but here comes another. I love your passion, Nikki! I can’t even think of a different adjective. Everything you discussed is obviously something you are passionate about. It is so refreshing!
For depression I also recommend with what you said, people need to get their Vitamin D checked. I didn't realize how Vitamin D can effect you health wise. And therapy, I convinced everyone needs it 😆... Rawbeautykristi started she wanted to do a home birth and she got a lot of heat for it and has been relentless mom shamed. I feel so bad for her. Because she was told she would never get pregnant.
Tea talks are the best! Your thoughts are so encouraging! And I've said it before, but, I love your thoroughness when answering questions and speaking on topics!
oh dear i love what Nikki says - "...you need to take a check on how you are treating the people around you and living your life and how effective you are being in loving other people caring for other people doing good things and if that is being affected by media that you are consuming..." - i need this.
This is the EXACT reason I deleted everyone off my Facebook and only use it for our business page. Seeing everyone's opinions, beliefs, arguments, political drama, etc. Waz dragging me DOWN. I've been off it since February and it's been INCREDIBLE. My friends constantly tell me how they want to delete it because of everything going on now and I'm so glad I made that choice!
Nikki! Thank you so much for sharing the tips on how to holistically deal with depression. When I get moving outside, I feel 1000x better. And getting in the Word and being conscious of what I am putting into my mind and heart play a huge role in my spiritual, emotional, mental, and even physical health. So thank you for speaking truth on this topic!
Been watching for forever. Will continue to watch for forever. I’ve been able to relate to you even more since you’ve had a baby! I’m remembering about all the adoption struggles you were having and now seeing you with your baby ... it was all just meant to be!
I love tea talks... indoors or outdoors! As moms we all struggle... it’s part of the mom game. I remember not realizing how much babies sleep those first couple months. Wow... they really sleep a lot at first. And I’d been around babies a lot. I like UA-cam videos more then podcasts. I like to physically see who’s talking to me lol. Odd I know!
I know I always say this, but I really do love your videos. Our viewpoints on Holistic living are the same as well as so much more. I wish we could be friends. However, thank you for being a calming voice to listen to as well as so down to earth all the time. ❤️
I always appreciate what you have to say, thank you for being comfortable enough to put your opinions out there. I always love hearing what you have to say about things, it’s a nice open conversation
There was so much in this video I didn’t even know I needed but THANK YOU !!!!!!💕 I’ve followed your journey for sooo long (pretty much the beginning but very seldom comment) you are such a breath of fresh air xoxox take care!!!
I have mental health problems and I am disabled. When I could get out I did feel better. But often the motivation to get moving isn’t there when depressed so it’s a vicious cycle. You have to be really really strict with yourself to push yourself to get out and do things to help you feel better. I’m just stuck in bed most of the time but I do things to make me feel better mentally. Long baths and just being kind to myself.
the depression advice you offered is really awesome. truly think all those things you mentioned are good for all of us to do! there certainly is a very crucial need for therapy and medication (actually I am in school to be a therapist so ofc I believe this) but I definitely agree its important to recognize the importance of a holistic approach!
21:57- this question answered was exactly what I needed to hear today!!!!! I feel like it was literally for ME! Ahhh it made me feel so much better when you put it in perspective like this 💕😭
Nice video! As a mom of a 19yr daughter (who I never put on social media) I cringe when I see moms who post about their toddlers (poddy training etc..) Ladies - please realize that the age of embarrassment for your children is coming- as mothers we owe our children their privacy!!!
I needed the I’m not in control message tonight. Having so much anxiety about my son going back to daycare on Monday, during COVID. But you are right, kids are gods children and in his hands! 🙏
I had my first ever baby in March, he's 5 months old now and I actually talked with my husband and decided we won't try for the second baby until our first is fully potty trained. I watch another mommy blogger that's potty training a two year old and has a 7 month old baby and it seems like such a mission trying to teach a child a whole new skill and taking care of a new baby at the same time
I try to remind myself that I'm not in control too. I just hadn't put it into those words. I'm hopeful that I will enjoy your teatalk podcast. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to miss seeing your face and expressions as you talk though. Your tips on depression are helpful to me.
Wow. Everything you had to say in this video is 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I love your tea talks and Q & A’s!!! And I love your tangents! I love hearing what you have to say 🤍

I loved hearing you’re going to be trying for baby number 2 in January or February, that is when hopefully we will be trying for number two as well! 😁😁
Your advice on planting seeds of hope is such a strong message. I truly believe you are right! I was playing the comparison game on other couples and "how perfect they look and seem" which was making me second guess my marriage and relationship with my husband and I truly think the evil one has been working extra time to plant these seeds of doubt! So I stopped and getting on social media outlets and gave my mind a break and literally started reading my bible again today and last but not least got my medication refilled and took it! I hadn't realized how much it was helping and my husband made a really good point about the benefits I was experiencing! Anyways! I agree!!
Totally thought you’d be saying you weren’t considering baby 2. I actually think it’s really really amazing you are and you seen so casual about it. Do you realize how huge that is with how much you’ve gone thru!? It’s shows growth and strength!
This was AWESOME!!!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 I could literally listen to you speak on different subjects for LEGIT HOURS!!!!!🤜🤛😎😎😎 I'm Praying for your Family and Friends in CALI!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 On top of EVERYTHING ELSE (#2020) I Pray for them Every Day!!!!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 Much Love from FL 💖💞💖💞💖💞💖💞💖💞💖💞💖💞💖💞
I’m sure you’ve come across it before but one random thing that helps teething: frozen pineapple in a mesh teething paci! Love you and your videos!! ❤️❤️

Dude how insane is that?! I can’t believe how much my life has changed 🥺 also thank you for the compliment 🥰 I feel so happy and blessed 😫🙌🏻
@@NikkiPhillippi I genuinely believe that you are a testament to the many forms and ebbs and flows that life can take! It's honestly inspiring!! 🙏🏼💛

Chrissy Long THIS right here!
Agreed!
I agree too!!
So true!
Tea talk with Nikki was just what I needed this evening :):) thanks for being so open!
Love your channel as well, Caitlin! 😊
Hi Mrs Midwest im your long time subscriber from Australia!!:) i love Nikki too😁❤️✌️
Love hearing a real mom share the truth of how she feels 🙌🏼🙋🏼♀️
I will always love listening to you talk, almost like hanging out with a friend I've never met!
Agree!!! 100% ❤️

I love your tangents so much. I don’t think I realized how much I needed your beautiful personality and voice today. ♥️
I love listening to you talk! Very excited for the podcasts with my long commute. Also very happy you mentioned grounding. 💕
Thank you for your videos Nikki. I am from Oregon but I’ve been stuck in Sydney,Australia as my boyfriend can’t leave the country right now with closed borders.

Seeing your life and it’s realness and homemaking in your videos help so much. Thank you for doing what you do.
I also think there’s a difference between showing some videos of your kid vs centering your Channel around your children.
I personally think it’s creepy how some Internet personalities or even tv stars won’t show their babies faces. They blur them out or show the baby’s lower half. It’s just odd. Like maybe don’t show the baby at all instead of using the child as a sort of teaser. I love seeing Baby Logan!

wow wow wow how encouraging. just to get into Scripture with the Lord is incredible!!

I hemorrhaged and had transfusions too. I’m glad you made it okay, mama!

Wow I needed this tonight!!! So lovely that you are so open and it's for sure like talking with a friend! I LOVE tea talks
Do you still see yourself staying in the Nashville area? or moving back to CA or a different state?
I love how your views have pretty much stayed consistent and you’re not afraid to talk about what you believe in. We love a good tea talk ❤️

Love these type of videos! Always appreciate your input!💕

Hi Nikki! Thanks for your thoughts! Don't wanna sound freaky but keep those baby toes coming 😆😘
I love watching your tea talks !! And seeing you transition From not being a mom to being a wonderful mother to Logan
Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your life so honestly and open and being inspiring to all of us!
Thanks for your honesty!
You talk like me, talking about different subjects into one subject lol
I love your vibe! watching your videos are very refreshing and relaxing :) xoxo

I seriously wish that I had a tea talk to watch everyday! I love listening while I'm doing things around the house!
PLEASE do a teething video or an IG story or something. My baby is 3.5 months and its already a problem and it's gonna be a long road ahead!
Awww Nikki! Every time I watch your videos I feel like I am spending time with a great friend! You’re truly an awesome person 🥰
🥰🥰
I really love how you share your perspective on so many things when you're answering these questions :))
Hi!!! I appreciate your positivity
I'm not a big talker, more of an observing sponge in most situations & I just love listening to you talk about things you are passionate about :)
I try to remind myself that I'm not in control too. I just hadn't put it into those words.
I'm hopeful that I will enjoy your teatalk podcast. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to miss seeing your face and expressions as you talk though.
Your tips on depression are helpful to me.
Thank you! That being said I will still be doing these videos! The audio exclusive podcasts will be in ADDITION:)

Hi Nikki. I loved your response on things to do to help with depression, and completely agree with you. I also loved how you incorporated Philippians 4:8 in your answer. :)
I love how you go on so many sideroads when you talk. I guess some people find it distracting but I just love to hear you talk 😂
