We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Niki Cozmo. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Niki below.

Niki, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today What did your parents do right and how has that impacted you in your life and career?

My father was an incredible influence in my life, particularly when it came to shaping my work ethic and mindset. He had a unique way of imparting wisdom through storytelling and his straightforward nature. One lesson that has stuck with me throughout my life was his unwavering belief in the power of hard work and taking decisive action.

I vividly remember the times when he told me that I could achieve anything I wanted, but only if I was willing to fight for it. His words emphasized the importance of determination and putting in the effort required to make dreams a reality. This early guidance instilled in me a strong sense of purpose and a drive to be the best version of myself.

In addition to my father’s influence, my mother played a significant role in shaping my creativity and entrepreneurial spirit. She was the artist in our family, and she instilled in me the belief that I could create something from nothing. Her creativity and ability to turn ideas into reality left a lasting impact on me, fueling my passion for innovation and entrepreneurship.

The impact of my parents’ lessons extended far beyond my personal life; it also deeply influenced my career. My relentless work ethic, determination to excel, and creative thinking can all be directly traced back to the values they instilled in me. Instead of dwelling on fantasies, I was always encouraged to set tangible goals, put in the necessary effort, and harness my creativity to achieve them.

Their teachings continue to guide me, reminding me of the enduring power of hard work, determination, and the belief that I could achieve whatever I set my mind to.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

I’m truly delighted to have the opportunity to share more about my journey and the essence of my work.

From a very young age, I’ve been an artist at heart, using various creative outlets like writing and painting to express my emotions. As I continued to grow, my curiosity led me into the fascinating realms of human behavior and the intricacies of the human mind.

After embarking on seven years of international exploration, immersing myself in diverse cultures, I gained a wealth of experiential knowledge. This hands-on learning was further enriched by formal education from various international schools. Throughout this transformative odyssey of self-discovery, it became abundantly clear that my purpose was to create a path where I could guide and support others during their most profound and transformational times. This journey led me to explore a wide array of disciplines, including psychology, hypnotherapy, energy healing, Thai massage, end-of-life care, and more.

What truly sets my work apart is my unwavering commitment to authenticity. I believe in sharing my own story honestly, without sugarcoating or concealing the challenges I’ve faced. My goal is to connect with clients on a profoundly human level, inviting them to embark on their unique journeys from a place of vulnerability and personal growth.

Throughout my journey as a therapist, mentor, and someone deeply dedicated to supporting and facilitating life-changing transformations, I’ve delved into a vast spectrum of themes. These encompass the intricacies of family dynamics, the struggles with addiction, the depths of loss, and the remarkable power of personal growth. What defines my approach is my steadfast dedication to genuineness—sharing my story vulnerably, showing up for people in their moments of need, and fostering a sense of empathy and understanding.

One of my primary objectives is to address the pervasive sense of isolation and disconnection that often accompanies life’s most formidable challenges. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing space where individuals can truly be seen, validated, and find solace in their unique journeys.

What brings me the most pride is the heartwarming feedback I’ve received from those whose lives I’ve touched. Knowing that I’ve made a profound difference in someone’s life is an incredibly fulfilling experience and fuels my unwavering commitment to this work.

Ultimately, I want potential clients, followers, and fans to recognize that my work is a testament to the unwavering hope, resilience, and compassion that I bring to each interaction. I am here to offer genuine support—a chance for individuals to confront their emotions, seek connection, and embark on a transformative journey of healing and self-discovery. My ultimate goal is to make a positive impact, to uplift, and to leave a lasting impression on those who engage with my work.

Regarding the products and services I provide, I offer a variety of Hypnotherapy and Transformational Life Coaching services, including:

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?

I’d be honored to share a personal story from my journey that highlights my resilience. It’s a story deeply rooted in my journey towards embracing authenticity and facing adversity head-on, all in pursuit of my true calling as a spiritual mentor.

In the past, I often found myself entangled in the web of people-pleasing, compromising my authentic desires to meet others’ expectations. I would hold back on my passions and authentic self-expression due to the fear of judgment and disapproval from certain individuals in my life.

However, I reached a turning point when I realized that true fulfillment and accomplishing extraordinary things required breaking free from the opinions and expectations of others. It became clear that living for external validation, whether positive or negative, was irrelevant and limiting to my growth.

My resilience story takes an unexpected turn when I faced a distressing incident, possibly a personal setback or adversity. Despite the anger and resentment that such experiences can trigger, I chose to see this incident as a catalyst for transformation. I recognized that life is unpredictable, and rather than allowing fear to dictate my actions, I decided to fully embrace life and pursue my passions fearlessly.

I learned that adversity is an inevitable part of life’s journey. While some events may be unfortunate, I refused to let these experiences discourage me or hinder my pursuit of extraordinary and fulfilling moments.

In essence, my story showcases my journey of breaking free from the opinions of others and embracing life’s unpredictability. It’s a testament to my commitment to living authentically, following my deepest desires, and not allowing negative experiences to hinder my pursuit of extraordinary moments.
