A small town girl with a big dream to change the world!

Niki grew up in Small Town, USA where she had a front row view of what a loving community looks like.  Funeral potatoes, church picnics, exuberant celebrations, & surprise visits were a big part of life, and everyone was always invited!  

Later, she got married, became a mom, and moved to a new community. She was surprised to find out not everyone grew up the way she did.  Then, life threw in some hardships, and it confirmed how important  the support of others can be.

After receiving a degree in Broadcast Journalism, she asked God how He wanted to use her experiences, training, giftedness, and creativity.  It became clear He wanted her to encourage others.  Unfortunately, her perfectionism left her frozen in fear.  “What if they don’t want my help?” “ What if I’m too busy?”  “What about the fact that I don’t even cook?” These are just a few of the many questions she began to ask.  

That’s when she decided to choose progress over perfection.  She started curating simple, yet meaningful ways to love and support others through good times and bad.  She saw those tiny acts of encouragement impacting the people around her, and wanted to inspire you to support the people in your community too.   

If you are looking for fun & simple ideas for every occasion, then follow along and make progress toward the lofty goal of changing the world, one small act of kindness at a time.
