Meet Coach Niki
Coach Niki is a licensed health insurance agent and healthy lifestyle coach turned passionate advocate for breaking the health poverty trap.
Over the past 15 years, she has been dedicated to addressing the barriers created by limited access to healthy foods, preparation knowledge, and wellness activities, which perpetuate cycles of poverty.
Helping individuals and communities transition to healthier lifestyles is Coach Niki’s top priority. Her work includes transforming kitchens into hubs of healthy meal preparation, reducing reliance on medications, promoting healing lifestyle habits, and establishing food co-ops and community outreach initiatives.
Coach Niki understands the profound impact of the health poverty trap—a cycle where poor health exacerbates financial struggles, and limited resources prevent access to proper healthcare, nutrition, and wellness opportunities.
Through her programs, workshops, and events, Coach Niki focuses on improving health equity, expanding access to vital resources, and fostering long-term sustainability in vulnerable communities.
Her primary mission is to ensure access to fresh, healthy, and affordable foods while promoting wellness practices that can break the cycle of poverty and build generational wealth.
