Nikki & Brie welcome broadcast journalist and podcast host Cari Champion!
Nikki & Brie Open Up with a look back at how Nikki & Cari first met. They jump back in time to a wild time at Unfinished Beef in Las Vegas Netflix and how they bonded over their experiences covering the unpredictable world of competitive eating!
Cari breaks down why she started her own show, what her goals were, finding some common ground with Nikki & Brie when it comes to getting into deeper conversations with people that you don’t always get in a TV interview, and how Nikki & Brie are as coworkers.
They also talk about the difficulties of finding new friendships as an adult, the pressures of mom groups and how it parallels dating, highlighting Nikki & Brie’s different parenting philosophies.
Cari also shares stories from her early days as a sports broadcaster, how some of her male counterparts would try to drain her confidence off camera, leaning into her strengths and conquering self-doubt.
They also talk about their mindsets going into 2025 and their ideas to make it the best year of their lives.
The ladies also talk about great family memories that built them into the fearless leaders they are now and how women from their past shaped them in every way.
Be sure to catch Cari on CNN New Year’s Eve Live this year and how Don Lemon’s advice guided her to do things her way.
To close out the episode, Cari keeps it simple for Inspiration & Affirmation with three words that mean so much.
