✨They say a change will do ya good✨ During quarantine, I was forced to examine how I was living my life… and honestly, I just didn’t feel like myself anymore. I knew I needed a big change to shake things up — so as soon as @nuria.contreras was back in the salon, I made an appointment for my biggest makeover yet! She chopped and balayaged my hair to perfection (which has been the same boring style for a decade!) Suddenly, I feel sexy, empowered, and confident again! And my life is already reflecting that new energy 💗 Thanks to my amazing friend @_stevecellis for capturing my new look, and for encouraging me to jump back in front of the (still) camera! #quarantinemakeover #shorthairdontcare #lifeisdambreezy #stevecandnikkidee📸
~𝔹𝕆𝔻𝕐 𝔻𝕐𝕊𝕄𝕆ℝℙℍ𝕀𝔸~ I used to have a very intense relationship with my fitness. In the competitive world of Los Angeles, I thought I’d have a leg up if I had the best body in the room. I obsessed over it. I was a total carbophobe, and wanted a backside like an Instagram model. I was in the best shape of my life, and still, I was transfixed with the extra flub on my tummy or the little bit on my arms. I only saw my imperfections, despite being in absolutely incredible shape. I noticed that I really had a problem after my surgeries (when I was withered away to skin and bone) and I LIKED the way I looked in the mirror. 😳 When I stepped back and looked a photo someone else took, it was a rudeeeee awakening (see fitness story highlights…) . . . . . . Now that my body is starting to snap back and I can see my shape again, I’ve had to have a very real conversation with myself and my unrealistic expectations of perfection. It’s no more “don’t eat this or that” and work out like a maniac — it’s do what feels good, increase your flexibility, gain endurance slowly, and STOP when you’re at your limit. THAT’S health. Progress. Steady Commitment. And an honest conversation with yourself about your past with body dysmorphia. #iseemyselfclearly #bodydysmorphia #fitnikkidee #strongissexy #showupforyourself

“Cute but crazy?” These are words that director @andersoncowan used during a podcast interview to describe his first impression of me when I auditioned for Groupers… dude! I can’t help that I have a razor sharp jawline and judgey eyebrows!(but hey, they say it’s helpful to know your brand 😂😅) ~* LISTEN HERE on GEEKTOME RADIO https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/geektomeradio001/episodes/2019-10-06T15_33_36-07_00 AROUND THE 27:30 mark *~ and thanks again to @_stevecellis for emphasizing the “cute” with this shot 👌#sweetbutpsycho #knowyourbrand #RBF #stevecandnikkidee📸

✌️𝚆𝚊𝚕𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚊𝚠𝚊𝚢 𝚏𝚛𝚘𝚖 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝙾𝙻𝙳 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚙𝚙𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚘 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝙽𝙴𝚆✨ They say a change will do you good, so I decided to go for it! I’m leaving my home of 3.5 years to move in with @bleweyd! And, another cherry on top, I’m getting a new car! Of course it’s difficult to walk away from these things that I love so much, but I’m excited for the future and the special memories that I get to make in these new places and things. Anyone else going through some major changes?! #newnew #newenergy #bigchanges #stevecandnikkidee📸

Adventures abound in Pioneertown 🤠🌵 💛
Keep going. As Sheryl Crow once wisely sang, “Every Day is a Winding Road” 🚘(I get a little bit closer…) #keepthefaith #trust #journey #stevecandnikkidee📸
ℱℯℯ𝓁𝒾𝓃 𝒷𝓁ℯ𝓈𝓈ℯ𝒹, 𝓃ℯ𝓋ℯ𝓇 𝓈𝓉𝓇ℯ𝓈𝓈ℯ𝒹… (hmph!) well, we can all aspire to that greatness, but in the meantime, I’ll be namaste’ing over here… #happy #stevecandnikkidee📸
This guy makes my heart skip. Kind of like how this sunset does, as we drove through the vineyards of Paso Robles on a hot summer day, chasing the fireball as it dipped behind the hill, leaving epic purple skies behind in its wake… 🌄 Yep, similar feeling @bleweyd… #myguy #Igotyoubabe #lovehim

I was wearing a denim jacket with my cute new haircut, watching the sunset with @bleweyd, and he looked over at me and told me I was his “little 90’s dream girl”… so he got me this hot red ‘93 Mercedes SL convertible to drive around for the day and take pictures in with my favorite car enthusiast @_stevecellis! Steve brought me to Angeles Crest for the sunset and it was a magical moment, for me and for the car 🚘 Peep this little video that Steve made, which perfectly captures the vibe… all the vibes! The only thing better than a summer sunset in a red hot sports car? JUSTICE FOR BREONNA TAYLOR. Just because the feed is going back to normal, it doesn’t mean the work is done. #justiceforbreonnataylor #theworkisnotdone #LA #newvibes #summersolstice #lifeisdambreezy #stevecandnikkidee📸
Another shot from @iwrotethisforyoufilm with my friend @thepatrickwalker (who also plays stud muffin Micah in @theresidentonfox, my favorite medical drama👩🏻⚕️). Also, wish I kept this badass jacket… #nicoledambroactress
Found these BTS shots from a film we shot in 2018 called @iwrotethisforyoufilm. I was peak illness… But I pulled it together for shoot days and made it work (DUH). It’s like The late Chadwick Bozeman said, “You can take the superpowers away, but you’ve got to have the warrior spirit.” 👊 Sometimes we push through the pain to do what we love. Thank you to @itsmattstoner @za_wizard and @brennankeelcook for casting me as Sadie ✌️#nicoledambroactress #bts
I’m surprised to see how many people are curious about Pioneertown and how many have actually visited themselves! So I wanted to share. We took the trip to celebrate Geoff’s birthday (far left in full cowboy), but originally wanted to go to Joshua Tree. We found this Pioneer Tower residence on Air BnB and fell in love with it. Turns out, this town was originally build to be a live-in western film set! It had so much character and history. We were still surrounded with Joshua Trees, but we were in walking distance to the famous @pappyandharriets and the Pioneertown Motel! We told the owner that we really loved the tower, and it turns out that they’re building another tower in Joshua Tree. We’ll be hitting that spot next year! 10/10 would recommend 🤠🌵 #pioneerwoman #desertvacation #imacowboybaby #pioneertower
