Prepare to dip your toes into the enchanting world of aromatherapy, as we have the pleasure of chatting with Nikki, a certified clinical aromatherapist and co-founder of Essentria Aromatherapy School. During her pregnancy, Nikki discovered the profound impact of essential oils, a journey that led her to become certified and establish her own holistic practice.
