In this powerful episode of The Soul Mirror, host Shreya sits down with Nikki Allen—writer, spiritualist, and sacred truth teller—to explore how heartbreak can transform into art and deep self-love. Nikki's debut novel Loved You, Hated You is more than a breakup story; it’s a guide back to the self through shadow work, humor, and honesty. She shares her journey through a relationship marked by domestic violence, how she learned to prioritize self-love, and the spiritual practices that continue to shape her path. Together, they discuss shadow work, writing from scars versus wounds, and how grief and joy can coexist during healing. This heartfelt conversation will inspire you to turn pain into creative fuel and stand firmly in your truth.
About the Guest: Nikki Allen is an author, spiritualist, and truth teller whose debut novel Loved You, Hated You is a raw exploration of heartbreak, healing, and self-discovery. Through her writing and spiritual practices, she empowers others to reclaim their voice and worth.
Key Takeaways :
Heartbreak can be a spiritual initiation when we choose self-love over staying in situations that compromise our worth.
Nikki's journey shows that healing often begins with setting boundaries and learning to put oneself first, even when it feels uncomfortable.
Shadow work and mirror work are powerful tools for confronting and releasing limiting beliefs. Looking oneself in the eye and affirming self-worth can be a life-changing practice.
Writing from scars (after healing) rather than wounds allows for clarity and transformation through art, making it a gift to others.
Humor and levity can coexist with grief, serving as survival mechanisms during challenging times.
Building a personal relationship with God or Source beyond labels and rigid structures can deepen spiritual healing.
True healing requires going back to the root of trauma rather than bypassing pain.
