What past clients
& readers are saying…
“Beyond impressed with how Nishi broke down concepts that many adults have a hard time with, for kids!”
— Jess Lively, Host of The Lively Show podcast
“Learning to listen to our hearts and follow our joy is something most of us have had to learn later in life. It sometimes takes mental health or physical health issues to make us stop and wake us up to the fact we have been living a life we didn't choose with our hearts. Imagine if you grew up understanding how to listen to your heart? Knowing how to let the mind take a break sometime? I'm so excited for this next generation of kids that know listening to their heart is the most important thing. I can't wait to see that world of people.”
— Rachel Crethar, Therapist
“A Friendship Story: Heart & Mind is the perfect way to introduce the mind & heart connection and the concept of living in the present moment to young children. I found that the story put a powerful message across in a way that children are able to understand. It immediately sparked my children's curiosity. The discussion questions and exercises at the end make this book engaging and fun. The illustrations are a perfect compliment to the words beautifully expressed in this story. I feel really good about reading this book to my children as I feel they will gain a deeper understanding each time we read it. Thank you for writing this book and making it easier for conscious parents to introduce these important concepts to our young children."
— April Behunin, Mom & Therapist
"When our children understand the inner workings of their heart and mind, they can find their own peace. What greater gift to give our children than the gift of peace?"
— Felicity Powers, Middle school teacher + RTT therapist
"A Friendship Story: Heart & Mind is a beautiful book. The words and ideas are clear. The content is understandable for both young and older elementary children. There are educational extensions easily accessible for both teachers and parents.”
— Barbara Killian, Retired LAUSD Special Needs Teacher
“It took me thirty years to realize how important it is to enjoy the present moment. Awareness of the present moment gave me harmony with myself. Nishi’s A Friendship Story provides a great opportunity for children to understand early on the importance of enjoying life right now and build a friendship between their mind and heart. Nishi is a talented writer who in an easy way revealed such deep learning for children.”
— Lera Munoz, Illustrator
“Coaching with Nishi has literally changed the way that I work. I am moving forward easily and flowing easily through my days. I'm having new clients just flowing into my life without me having to "do" anything for it, or "work hard to make money", which is bullshit anyway. This coaching opened my eyes to how easy flowing is, and how freely life flows into fun when I'm working. There's a lot less struggle, for a lot more actual accomplishment in each day.”
— Slade Powell, Coach & Inner Voice Facilitator
“The sessions that we had together were amazing and exactly what I needed at the time. To be able to spontaneously drop deeper and be guided to my inner voice by you was such an important part of my growth over the past few months.”
— K, Chiropractor
“I absolutely LOVE A Friendship Story: Heart & Mind. The concept is so needed and the illustrations are beautiful! This is definitely something that kids and parents would love.”
