I commend you for being so vulnerable on this platform. I'm sure that it wasn't easy for you to share your personal life, as opposed to sharing your passion for cooking. I'm happy to hear that you are doing well and be sure to continue your self care! Much respect to you Nikki!!

Would love to see a video with nutrient tracking! Also, would love to see a series of videos dedicated to comparing the major brands of various vegan STAPLES, i.e. butter, tahini, nutritional yeast, plant milks, tofu, cheese, etc. Bonus points if you rank them from best to worst!

Ok your skin is GLOWING, let’s talk about that! Spill all the tea and tips😉😍

I literally never comment online because I'm too shy🙈 but I felt a nudge to say from one Niki 🇬🇧 to another, I absolutely love your videos and always look forward your Sunday postings, they give me lots of inspiration! I actually started following you after my last break up and found solace in the authenticity of your videos. Watching your videos gave me the motivation to focus on looking after myself and embrace the healing! Needless to say time does heal, we grow wiser and more self aware and I am sure you will meet your "person" ✨ Wishing you all the very best x

Your reason for being vegan is pretty much equivalent to my reasoning. I love the blanket statement of "reducing harm as much as possible" because it goes a long way but it's also keeping it realistic that you truly can't save everyone and everything 100% but you definitely can do your part and what you feel is best for you while feeling great about it. (Sorry for the run-on sentence)

[Sochilinda]

Hi Nikki, I watch all of your videos and I rarely comment because many of the comments, pretty much express what I think. But in this occasion, I wanna thank you for being so transparent about your break up, specially when you don’t have to! But it definitely makes us feel that this happens to everyone and we can keep our joy, you are the perfect example of that. I’m sorry you’re going through this and don’t forget to be kind to yourself. I admire all that you do and I know for sure you’ll be alright! Sending you a huge Mexican hug 🤗

[julieshelley]

You look and sound fabulous Nikki. I have been thru several break up, not fun. Day by day doll. You are such an.inspiration, real and so lovely. I look.forward to you videos every Sunday. Big hugs from.Philly..

[julietmarlowe]

Happy to be in your calming presence, life is a journey, you just have to live your truth and hope the right people gravitate /align with that, only good things to you always ❤

[Pinupred]

Hey Nikki, thank you for taking the time to answer our questions. I’m sorry to hear about your breakup 💔 I was with my ex gf for over 8 years, and my life was turned upside down when we split. 3 years have passed since, and I’ve never been better. Hang in there 🫂 Sending you positive vibes ❤

[lesliemartin]

Oh, forgot——your explanation of why you chose to be vegan is honest. No drama, just a way to live your life. That resonates for me on so many levels for how I want to live. We are none of us perfect, but if we were all trying to do less harm, imagine where we could go.

[judeannemcintyre]

Thank you for sharing a portion of your life with us, I’m so sorry for the hurt.
Your videos are so inspiring and informative every time without being ‘preachy’. If you know what I mean.
Do you have a favorite meal prep recipe?

[loristory]

Well said Nikki “reduce harm to my body, ” love this and totally agree with you. Happy 4th! 😘

[jennifercollea]

My favorite you-tuber by far! You are so authentic, creative and genuine!!! I felt that one. I believe that your people are so curious because we truly care about you and are concerned for your well being. Hope you continue healing and you opened my eyes with the “step back and gain clarity” comment. You are the Oprah of the plant based world!😘

[lesliemartin]

First, sorry that your relationship went as it did, but impressed with your handling of it. Sometimes it takes a very long time to get where you are. I saw this and believe it to be true: “Emotion comes in waves, you can only control how you ride the waves.”
Yes to the butter comparison video. Would also request a yogurt comparison video, including best for cooking/baking.
All the best to you and may you find your person.

[straightedgeveganbel]

It is so true that time heals all wounds, it may take a long ass time and you may think that day will never come but rest assured it will....even if you don't fill that void with other things, distractions. All a person needs is time and self love to heal. Plus eventually you look back and it feels like the time went by in a blink....I cannot believe how much faster time seems as I get older, make the best of the time you have ppl😊

[lanaschnur]

It takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there. You. Are. Brave.

[melrox]

Thanks for letting us get to know you better. Your such a sweet person. Sending hugs

[jsnwayne]

A new NikkiVegan video is always a great way to start a Sunday morning! 🔔 The part where you had to re-film because you were "rambly" is so relatable. So many rambling, unsent letters ended with me realizing maybe I'm not even the same person I was when I started writing. It's another way of time healing, of gaining perspective and distance. Thank you for sharing, Nicole :)

[marendajudkins]

You were so brave for sharing . I’m so sorry for your hurt. Being heartbroken is so hard!!! Your just such an amazing woman 💖

[littlelonny]

Hi Nikki, thanks for sharing such personal information with us 🧡 Since you asked about if we’d like to see more nutrition facts & macros, I thought I might give you an answer: i think you spread in so many nutritional facts already and for me personally that’s more than enough. I think your YouTube is a very safe space for me & I love how they inspire instead of trigger me. Showing macros & calories would „ruin“ that a little for me. But obviously that’s your channel & you do you (and there are also heaps of people here who don’t struggle with that). Just my (very personal) opinion.🌞 But maybe making seperate videos that focus more on nutritional information would be helpful for those who are interested in that.
