Today, I want to open up about someone who means a lot to me — Nicole. Over time, through quiet conversations and shared moments, Nicole has revealed a side of herself that many people don’t get to see. Her story is one of vulnerability, strength, and the courage to be authentic in a world that doesn’t always make that easy.
Nicole once told me something that really stayed with me: “People often say I have no personality. But that’s only because I’ve built walls around myself.” That simple sentence carried so much weight. In the world of YouTube and social media, it’s incredibly difficult to be raw and real. There’s pressure to perform, to curate, to entertain — but rarely space to just be. Nicole's words reminded me that sometimes, the quietest people are carrying the richest inner lives.
She described herself as “crazy” — not in a chaotic or reckless way, but in the sense of being fun, energetic, full of life. A personality that sparkles when she feels safe enough to let it out. But for Nicole, safety doesn’t come easily. She needs to feel truly comfortable with someone to allow that vibrant version of herself to emerge. That’s why, when she’s with me, I get to see something different — a Nicole who laughs loudly, speaks freely, and shines in her own unique way. It’s a beautiful thing to witness.
What moved me the most, though, was hearing Nicole speak about how misunderstood she often feels — especially online. Because of her naturally serious expression, people sometimes assume she’s cold or unfriendly. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. Behind that reserved exterior is one of the warmest, most giving hearts I’ve ever known. “If I had $10, I’d give you $5,” she once told me — and I know, without a doubt, that she meant it. Nicole is the kind of person who would go out of her way to make sure someone else was okay, even if it meant sacrificing something for herself.

Now, Nicole is bravely trying to share more of her true self on her YouTube channel. It’s not an easy path, especially when criticism and negativity can hit so hard. But I’m deeply proud of her — for pushing through the noise, for choosing honesty over image, for showing people the heart behind the content. That takes strength most people can’t begin to understand.
Nicole isn’t someone who seeks to hurt, use, or manipulate anyone. She’s kind, loyal, and quietly resilient. And that’s why, after all these years, she’s still standing strong — still here, still real, still such a cherished part of our lives. I feel lucky to know the version of Nicole that the world often doesn’t see.
So, if you’ve ever watched her and wondered who she really is — I hope this helps. Nicole is more than the screen version of herself. She’s someone with a generous soul, a thoughtful mind, and a heart that surprises you with its depth and sincerity. I hope you see a little more of that now.
