Tired of being single? Wondering why your relationship
status still hasn't changed? Maybe… it’s you!

Addressing topics such as Maybe You Think Ignorance is Bliss, Maybe You Can’t Get the Sex Thing Right and Maybe You’re Fat, Maybe It’s You is a fearless exploration of previously uncharted discussion topics, delving head-first into the subtle and obvious actions, inaction, thoughts and misconceptions that spell dating disaster for the modern woman.

This is the relationship book that everyone’s been waiting for.

Meet your new best Girlfriend!

Author Nikki Nokes gives you her unique blend of straight-talk girl talk with the humor, candor and understanding that is usually reserved for best friends and rounds of martinis. With real-life examples and practical exercises, she’ll tell it like it is to get you on the fast track with Mr. Right.

 

Welcome!!

Thank you so much for visiting!  Welcome to my blog!  I'm so happy that you stopped by and would like to thank you for your support.  

Don't we all love to talk about relationships!  No matter what topic we start with, from climate change to our favorite shoe designers, the ultimate focus of the conversation always lands solidly on men and relationships.  Whether we're saying we met someone new, or the proverbial "all men are dogs" - relationships are on our hearts, minds and lips.

What I started to notice in conversations with my girlfriends is that while we easily spend our time discussing what was wrong with "them," the conversation never really turned to "us" with an honest critique of what we might be doing that contributed to the results we were getting out of our relationships.  We never shared advice and expectations for better experiences.  This thought evolved into Maybe...It's You!

Maybe ...It's You is a self-empowerment tool for the single girlfriends to not only spark a personal, internal dialogue, but also a new type of conversation amongst each other, this time, one that might lead to a new and different conclusion and ultimately a different result other than, men suck and I'm still single.  Maybe...It's You! is an attempt to answer the question "why."  Why is he not into me?  Why doesn't he commit to me?  Why am I not meeting anyone?  Why am I still single?? 

We all deserve to be happy, Girlfriends.  Sometimes, it just takes a little work.  So, with that, I pose to you the following question, if you are single, have you ever considered...maybe it's you?

Talk to you soon!

More on Courage...

By Nikki Nokes on August 9, 2011 10:12 PM | No Comments | No TrackBacks
I recently came across one of the most amazing quotes and I'm sure you wouldn't be surprised who said it.  It came from Oprah, on an episode of her OWN reality show following her 25th and final season of the Oprah Show.  The quote is as follows:

"The only courage you ever need is the courage to live the life of your dreams."

Now, I don't have any tattoos, because I never heard or saw anything so important to me that I was certain I wouldn't change my mind about it later - but this quote, this is tattoo-worthy.

The only courage you ever need is the courage to live the life of your dreams.  I know I've been writing a bit about courage and fear and maybe that's what happens when you dig down past all the dating and relationship issues, and get down to what matters most - your relationship with yourself and the life that you want to live.  Not just from a one-dimensional perspective, but organically, all the way around.  So, the way I see it, fear and courage are the two most important subjects that should follow and I could write about both for years and years (I'm sure I won't, but I'm just saying'...).  In my last blog post, I asked you your name for courage.  Who are you when you are the most courageous?  And as you ask yourself this question about courage, ask yourself the same about fear.  Who or what is it in you that tells you that you can't or you shouldn't when you try to answer the life that's calling you? 

Your dreams whisper to you so softly that no one else can hear them - and that's because they're only for you.  Your dreams are a "to be" that are meant to be - but only you can make it so.  Give credit and credence to your dreams - they know you better than you know yourself.

And that's why it's so important Girlfriends (and Guy friends too), to find the courage to fight past the fear - the apprehension of the unknown.  Your miscalculation of the likelihood of failure.  That's fear - you think you're gonna lose, so you don't even play the game.  Well, Girlfriends, we all know that if you don't play the game, you lose anyway.  So, what's there really to be afraid of? 

Name your fear - because it is not a part of who you are.  And then, move past it with the courage to answer the life that's calling you.

Much love,
NN
