The Spill 🍵

This page? Totally unplanned. But somehow, it became home…. it started with small moments I didn’t want to forget. A trip I took. A thought that hit mid-scroll. A freelancing win that felt too quiet to celebrate out loud.

Over time, sharing became a rhythm. A way to document, reflect, and connect with others who are also figuring it out as they go.

I’m not here to give you a 5-step formula or tell you what to do. I’m just here to share what’s been real, what’s been helping, and what it actually looks like to build a life with freedom at the core.

She yappin' again.

She yappin' again.

Nicholle here!

A freelance writer, content creator, and soft life girlie currently working from wherever there’s WiFi and good chocolate milk.

I grew up in the beautiful city of Muscat, Oman, and like most third culture kids, I learned early how to adapt, observe, and find “home” in small, unexpected ways.

That curiosity still shows up in everything I do: whether I’m building a client’s brand story or filming a quiet moment from my day.

These days, I split my time between creating for brands, sharing what’s helped me navigate freelancing, and documenting the life I’m slowly building on my own terms.

Just for Fun

When I’m not creating content or chasing WiFi, I’m probably:

  • Binge-watching crime scene documentaries like it’s self-care

  • Deep in a podcast rabbit hole (Wake Up with Jim & Saab, Behind Relationship Goals, and Rotten Mango are my go-tos)

  • Playing volleyball or squeezing in a slow & shaky Pilates session

  • Or just mentally scripting an IG caption I’ll never post
