“My purpose: help people understand themselves & each other through introspective and compassionate conversations”
In early 2021, I experienced what I now refer to as my “personal armageddon”, as I left a decade long abusive relationship and simultaneously was faced with the unexpected loss of my mother amidst the peak of the pandemic.
Navigating these events and being forced to cope with two very different types of grief at once, my perspective on mental health, personal growth, and healing through trauma shifted drastically. I have always felt strongly about the importance of human connection and thanks to a tremendous amount of support from my family, friends and therapist, I made the decision to return to the mic to share my own story in May 2022.
Now, you can catch new episodes of Can I Just Say? every week to hear guests from all over the globe share their unique stories of resilience, gratitude and their missions to make meaningful change in the world. I see the continued growth of my show as a way to help others feel seen and heard, so they can learn how to prioritize their well-being and find the inner peace we all deserve.

Listen to Can I Just Say? with Nikki La Croce on Spotify. Can I Just Say? is a phrase that I often say and one which is deeply rooted in the essence of who I am. It is how I enter conversations, initiate connection, and invite people to share their stories. The idea being that this is a platform and community where guests and listeners have the freedom to say whatever is on your mind and in your heart. So, when somebody leads with, “Can I just say?”, my answer is an emphatic “YES.” As I embark on this next stage of my podcasting journey, guests will be going beyond what’s expected and diving into the more raw, vulnerable parts of their stories that don’t often get enough air time or perhaps they’ve never shared before. In keeping aligned with my personal values, I am focused on building a community of cycle-breakers who want to connect and grow together.
Looking for honest conversations about growth, healing, and the messy beauty of life? You've come to the right place! Can I Just Say is a show where we explore the stories and experiences that make us human. Here, you won't find sugar-coated advice or one-size-fits-all solutions. This is a space for authentic conversations and genuine connection. Join me as I share the mic with guests to discuss: Personal growth journeys: We'll learn from guests and each other's experiences, exploring how to navigate challenges and embrace change. Healing through connection: Let's talk about vulnerability, self-reflection, and the power of sharing our stories in a supportive community. Cultivating empathy: Open your mind to diverse perspectives through genuine conversations that spark curiosity and understanding. Embracing your wholeness: We'll explore both the light and the shadow within ourselves, acknowledging the complexity that makes us real.
