About
Nikki
I am the proud mother of two boys (Hunter, 13 and Kyler, 11…a.k.a. “HunKy”). I am addicted to travel and excitement. As a longer-term travel goal, I am working on joining the 100-country club!
I think multiple income streams are brilliant. My husband and I are working on diversifying our incomes to protect against the vagaries of the economy.
I enjoy sharing my Arbonne business with people around the world! This health and wellness business allows me to be present with my kids, travel, and dance, while contributing to our household income.
Besides my family, travel, and helping people create abundance, my other passion is DANCE! I love the way I feel after a dance class and the community that is created from this art. This is my creative outlet and after taking a break for several years (formerly danced for the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Rapids), I have found a new appreciation and love for this fun way to squeeze fitness into my juggled life.
I am excited to announce that I have started a gold mining business with my husband and my dad this year! I used to work for a gold mining company and decided now is the time to find a few Nuggets of my own!
My husband, Mark, and I are creating another pillar of opportunity with real estate investments – we are working on finding our 5th property so that we will be able to generate rental income in the long-term. Our aim is to live in Canada in the summer (we currently have a home on Vancouver Island), the Caribbean in the winter and Denver in the fall and spring!
I believe that with the right coaching and openness, anyone can achieve their dreams!

What special skill, talent or gift would you like to give back to the community?
I love to help people (especially) women find their voice and their truth. I have come so far from where I was 20 years ago (even 5 years ago!) If I can help people eliminate their fears by sharing inspiration I have received from other successful women and perhaps stories from my journey, I am thrilled.
What is your biggest business challenge right now?
I have 2.5 business currently. My Arbonne business is thriving - it's smart, simple, and fun! My gold mining business is getting it's legs - now that the snow has melted, we can see what the hills have to offer up in Summit County. The biggest challenge is determining exactly what the perimeters of our land are (we have discrepancies with what the county assessor states and what our documents state). The third business is one in which I want to be a silent partner but the negotiations with the other partner have become more of a hassle than it's worth. I am in love with the business model so I'm having a hard time letting go if it's not a fit. At the end of the day, I am a hard worker but I work smart and I have a BIG vision for my future.
Why do you want to be a part of heymama?
I enjoy connecting with like-minded business women, especially those that have kids in the mix. I tried to be the SAHM but I think I would go crazy - huge kuddos to those that can do it!
I worked really hard for my degree and still feel like I have more to offer the world. My friends call me the "part-time" mom because I have my boys 4 days of the week so I want to spend my extra time helping others. I love to hear the stories of where other people have come from, where they are now, and where they are going. As a Denver native, I love to meet new people from around the world and as this area expands, I know I can meet a brand new person every day.
I am hoping to meet some women that have to throw the "co-parenting with an ex-husband" dynamic into their life mix. This is probably the most challenging piece of motherhood for me.
