Nicole Benham: One message that I've programmed into myself a lot is I love myself. After reading Kamal Ravakhan's book, Love Yourself Like You Like The Best, she went from being depressed to having him on the podcast in October of 2020. "I leave this conversation with you so inspired, so feeling of like, oh, wow, I'm ready to get it," Nicole says after hearing her friend talk about how he changed his life. 'It's cool when you're reminded of a previous version of yourself,' Nancy adds. "'You can do anything if you set your mind to it.' That's what we should all be doing."
Nicole Behnam is a founder and journalist. She is the creator of Beyond The Interview, a Beyond With Nicole, where she’s interviewed people like Chris Voss, Tom Bilyeu, and Robert Greene.
In this conversation, we spoke about turning friends into mentors, how Naval Ravikant spoke at one of her events, overcoming insecurities, reconciling friendships, and her Oscars speech.
