More with Nikki Dutton

It's true – I'm stepping away from the podcast (for now) after five unbelievable seasons. This episode shares my real-time thoughts of why and a little about what's next. I adore this space we've created and have a hunch it'll come back in some way, shape or form down the road. Thank you for being a part of it. And until then, cheers to an entire library of More with Nikki Dutt...

This episode is a collab with one of my favorite friends, Taylor Carlier, founder of The Already Collective. We walk through some of the miraculous moments in life so far, the highs and lows of ministry and how community carried me through some of my toughest moments – all against the backdrop of the already, not yet aspect of the Kingdom of God. thealreadyco.com @thealreadyco on Instagram The Alr...

I had the incredible honor of speaking at a Monday morning devotion at the Chick-fil-A Support center recently and wanted to share that message with you here! All of us would say life now, or our situation at certain points, has looked very different than we expected – and we look at the life of Joseph in the Bible we are reminded that the most unexpected places sometimes hold the most unexpected...

Over these first six months as a new mom I have felt like we are making one massive decision after another. From feeding to childcare, travel to medical choices – each one has felt so ultimate. Maybe it's motherhood, but I have a hunch this might resonate for a lot of us in our thirties. Listen in to hear how we've navigated a few of these decisions, all the thoughts and feeling that accompanied t...

This episode continues my "Hello, I'm a New Mom and It's Rocking My World" series where I invite you into what the early days as a first-time mom looked like. All things starting at the drive home from the hospital through the first few weeks postpartum. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@morewithnikkidutton⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠nikkidutton.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ PARTNERSH...

Welcome to one of the biggest episodes yet – the one where I rejoin the podcast in real-time (after five months of maternity leave) to tell you all about the beautiful baby boy that I adore.

Counseling has changed my life for the better, and after eight years in therapy, a major question I continue to have is how can I get the most out of my counseling experience? Terri S. Watson, board-certified clinical psychologist and professor of psychology at Wheaton College, is here to answer that exactly. Consider this a free (and very encouraging) session with a licensed mental health profess...

Stress is an (unfortunate) common experience that can take many forms – from unexpected traffic to overarching worry. The effects of stress reach into every aspect of our lives, including our physical health. So what do we do? Is radical relaxation actually possible in real life? Tracie Braylock joins me today to share how to identify and address the source of our stress, as well as offer practica...

Sitting down today to talk candidly and share my experience of what this last year of friendships has looked like – the unexpected changes and challenges, redemptive and grace-filled moments and how life affects the way we connect with our friends that feel like family. @morewithnikkidutton⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠nikkidutton.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ I'd love to hear from...

Hannah Brencher – writer, author, business owner, and all-around encouraging human – joins the podcast to talk about working as a mom, turning down the excess noise in our life, and intentional practices that help us become the kind of person we hope to be. @hannahbrencher  on Instagram hannahbrenchercreative.com The Unplugged Hours: Cultivating a Life of Presence in a Digitally Connected World  ...

Grace Valentine is an author and speaker, but considers herself an honorary friend – which is perfect, because she literally wrote the book on friendship, ⁠ The Better Friend: 12 Truths to Shift from Shallow and One-Sided Connections to Vibrant Friendships ⁠ . I love that this conversation is all about how to take friendships to the next level, and if you've followed this podcast for any amount of...

Annie F. Downs—New York Times best-selling author, speaker, and podcaster—is known for her infectious energy and the fun she brings to everything she does. So, at first glance, it might be surprising that she wrote ⁠ Where Did TJ Go? A Book for Kids on Grief and Loss ⁠ . However in our conversation, we explore why Annie was the perfect person to write this book—not only because it was always inten...

It still feels surreal – but Scott and I are days away from welcoming our first baby boy into the world! Excited is an understatement. In these final days before having this baby, I wanted to record a real-time episode with all of my thoughts, questions, predictions, plans, and share them with you. Thank you for being along for this journey from day one! We can't wait to introduce you to our b...

Annie Willems has been a doula for the last 17 years and came across my TikTok feed during my pregnancy. I gravitated towards what she had to say because she answered so many of the questions I have as a first-time mom preparing for delivery (any day now!!) and she did so in a way that was permission-filled and peaceful. So grateful to get to have this conversation with Annie as we are so close to...

Dr. Emily McGowin is one of my favorite professors from my master's program at Wheaton College. She been on the podcast before, but I had to invite her back when I saw her newest book is all about building family. What I love most about this concept and conversation is that family isn't limited to a certain season of life – it's available (and happening) for all of us wherever we'r...

Brad McDonald and Taylor Jessup, hosts of The Daily Leader Podcast (another show under the More Podcast Network!) join me on today's episode to tell the story of how The Daily Leader came to be and what leadership looks like in everyday context.

Elise Moore is a favorite friend of the pod BUT what you may not know, is that she is also the host of the Honestly Elise Podcast. I've had the privilege of helping launch and keep the Honestly Elise Podcast going as a part of this first year of the More Podcast Network. We are jumping on the mic together to tell the story of how this podcast + podcast network collaboration came to be and talk can...

One thing is for certain, 2025 looks like it will be a year filled with firsts. Of course, the biggest coming-very-soon for me is meeting our baby boy – but even beyond this major life moment, I think this year holds a lot of space for the brand new. In this episode, I invite you to reflect on 2024 and think through what you want more of in 2025. Excited to be along for the ride of whatever this y...

These are some of my favorite types of episodes on the podcasts I listen to, so let's do a real-time Q&A! Here are the questions you asked that I answer in this conversation –  How is Scott? :)  What are your thoughts raising a boy? What are you looking forward to most? HOW ARE YOU FEELING!  What does it look like to have "the goodness of God running after me"? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@morewithnikkidutton...

I still can't believe this day really happened – and I want to tell you all about it!!

We're here – Thanksgiving is next week with Christmas and New Year's in sight. Tis the season for all the things hosting, planning, celebrating, and accomplishing. This short episode asks, "What do you want out of the holidays?" (thanks to Jess Connolly) and offers an invitation to relax into all this holiday season brings. Words of wisdom that are carrying me and will hopefully encourage you too....

Welcome to a super laid back episode where I fill you in on what's happened over the last few weeks since my "Honestly, This Email Finds Me Unwell" episode – including a couple stories about this pregnancy. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@morewithnikkidutton⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠nikkidutton.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ PARTNERSHIPS – ⁠⁠⁠Ritual⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ - Ritual offers a variety of m...

Finding the right work-life balance has always been important to me – but as I consider what work will look like in the future with a new baby boy in our home this is something I'm thinking a lot about. My guest today is perfect for this conversation. Excited for you to meet Cory Carlson, entrepreneur, former executive, husband and father, who works with individuals to increase their leadership ca...

A few years ago, Scott and I started dreaming of buying our first house, but one look made us feel like it was impossible. We saw friends posting that they bought houses, but how? In this economy?! Enter our realtor, and friend, Brad Baker who taught us everything we know about buying a house and helped us own our first home. This episode is for anyone who has a dream to buy their first house but...
