This week on The Nikki & Brie Show, the twins are joined by one of their dearest friends and wrestling sisters—Nattie Neidhart—to celebrate the release of her deeply personal and inspiring memoir The Last Hart Beating. From the emotional moment she woke up on launch day to already seeing amazing reviews from top book critics, Nattie reflects on the joy, nerves, and ultimate healing that have come with telling her story for the first time on her own terms.
In a conversation full of heart and history, the trio opens up about legacy, vulnerability, and the power of writing through pain. Nattie shares how she used messages from her wrestling sisters to stay grounded throughout the writing process, and how The Rock came to write the foreword after asking her one simple but powerful question: “What does legacy mean to you?” From childhood memories to overcoming doubt, from Total Divas mischief to raw, real reflections—Nattie gets honest about family, fame, and finding herself beyond the ring.
With every chapter of her life, Nattie proves she’s not just surviving—she’s thriving. Whether you're a longtime fan or a new listener, you’ll find wisdom and encouragement in her story. As Nattie says, “Why not me?” is a mantra we all deserve to live by. Grab your copy of The Last Hart Beating, available now wherever you get your books, and press play on this episode to hear what it means to turn pain into purpose.
