This Is How We Rise with Nika Lawrie
This Is How We Rise is a podcast for individuals who know they are meant for more but feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or stuck between who they are and who they aspire to be.
Hosted by Nika Lawrie, this show explores what it actually takes to rise in today’s world. Not just in mindset, but in health, identity, money, work, and purpose. Because real success means nothing if it comes at the cost of your well-being, freedom, or joy.
Episodes take different forms, because rising is not one size fits all.
Some episodes are solo conversations with Nika, breaking down the patterns, shifts, and truths behind real transformation. What actually works, what doesn’t, and why.
Some are live coaching sessions, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the questions, blocks, and breakthroughs people experience as they rebuild clarity, confidence, and momentum.
Others are expert interviews with founders, thought leaders, health experts, and visionaries across wellness, business, mindset, finance, and personal growth.
And some episodes share powerful stories of people who have risen through challenge, change, or crisis, and the lessons we can all take from their journey.
Across every format, the focus is the same. Helping you align who you are with what you are building.
You will learn how to:
- Rewire your mindset for steady, unshakable confidence
- Align your health and energy to support sustainable success
- Build a purpose-driven business or career without burning out
- Show up more boldly, master visibility, and lead with clarity and intention
Whether you are launching something new, scaling toward your next milestone, or simply craving clarity and direction, This Is How We Rise gives you the tools, perspective, and grounded encouragement to take your next step.
This is not about hustle, perfection, or chasing someone else’s version of success.
It is about healing, alignment, courage, and building a life that actually works for you.
If you are ready to RISE without losing yourself, this is where it begins.

In this 2022 episode, Josette Tkacik, a Juilliard-trained professional dancer and Zumba instructor, shares her incredible journey of self-healing from advanced rheumatoid arthritis, a debilitating autoimmune disease, without the help of Western medicine.
Diagnosed in 2011 with a condition for which conventional treatments offer no cure, only life-shortening pharmaceuticals to slow its progression, Josette chose to forge her own path to wellness through nutrition and self-care. Her remarkable recovery led to her being declared a Medical Miracle in 2016, with no evidence of the disease found in subsequent bloodwork. Josette's story is not just about overcoming physical adversity; it's a testament to the power of alternative healing methods.
Now recognized as the world's most successful Zumba instructor, a Congressional award-winning Santa Barbara Hero, and a top author on DailyOM, her story inspires many to explore the transformative potential of nutrition and self-care in battling seemingly insurmountable health challenges.
