Summary

Today on Here’s Where It Gets Interesting, Sharon welcomes back close friend and CEO, Nicole Walters, to share all about her captivating memoir, Nothing Is Missing. The daughter of Ghanaian immigrants, Nicole writes about her experience growing up in America through the lens of a different kind of American dream, both in how she was raised, and by forging her own path as a TV personality, motivational speaker, and entrepreneur building a multi-million-dollar business. Nicole talks with humility about not having all the answers, granting grace to ourselves and others, and the learned skill of saying “I don’t know,” when you haven’t learned something yet. Through struggles, obstacles, and falling down only to get back up again, this conversation demonstrates how to show up for ourselves, and mindfully create our lives with confidence and boldness.

Special thanks to our guest, Nicole Walters, for joining us today.

0:00.0	Hello friends. Welcome. I could not be more excited for today's episode. One of my very,
0:11.7	very good friends is back on the podcast, Nicole Walters. And this episode is going to hopefully
0:20.5	be so transformative for you. She has a new book out called Nothing is Missing. And I can't
0:25.9	wait for you to hear more about Nicole's story and some of the lessons that she's learned
0:29.6	that we can all take and apply to our own lives. So let's dive in. I'm Sharon McMahon. And here's
0:38.8	where it gets interesting. Well, I could not be more excited to welcome my friend Nicole Walters
0:47.0	back to the show. Yay. Thank you so much for being here. Are you kidding me? There's no place
0:51.2	outside, rather, be besides in a ball of raccoons. Kissing the little faces, a smushy face.
1:08.8	Nicole has been here before and we talked about raccoons. So you may hear a few inside jokes about
1:14.0	raccoons. Nicole loves them. They're her favorite animal. We communicate largely through raccoon memes.
1:21.6	Videos of raccoons. You know, it's like one of those things. People send me whale videos and
1:26.5	videos of dogs doing cute things and whatever. Anything raccoon, I am directing Nicole's way.
1:33.1	100% and I receive it entirely. It is literally, I would say a solid 97% of our interaction. The
1:39.7	other 3% is like brilliant business insights and world and life changing theories, but 97% is raccoons.
1:49.1	Raccoons. And that's a real, that's real life and real friendship. It's called balance.
1:55.2	Yeah. Yep. That's right. All of the three percent. It takes 97% raccoons to balance the weight
2:03.6	of the three percent. That's right. It's so deep and heavy. It requires 97% raccoons.
2:11.1	I'm excited for everyone to hear our chats because when I tell you, sharing people constantly,
2:16.8	whenever they find out we even know each other, I get messages that are like, you don't understand
2:21.3	the two of you together in one room. I cannot. I cannot. I mean, one, we're very similar. We're graceful.
2:26.8	We like to teach people. We love, you know, sharing stories both our own and others to elevate
2:32.4	and then sharing just facts. You know, kind of, hey, this is the thing of how it is. So I just love
