Experience Growth While Pursuing Your Passion with Michelle McDowell

Published on: 11th April, 2022

In this episode, I chatted with Michelle McDowell, a branding and wedding photographer based in Atlanta. Michelle works her business on the side with a goal and plans to replace her full-time job with her passion project. Even though she feels like a late bloomer in life, it's never too late to learn and grow. While pursuing her passion and creativity, she's seen how it has helped her grow as a person and business owner. She also shares how working with me has helped her shift her mindset in exciting ways.  

So If you've ever felt like it's too late to pursue your passion or that you don't feel like you know enough, Michelle's journey will hopefully inspire you to do it and don't give up.

Welcome to Business with Chronic Illness — the podcast for women who are building big dreams with limited energy.
I’m Nikita Williams, and I know what it’s like to be living in pain, carrying a diagnosis (or several), and still wanting more — more purpose, more income, more alignment, more ease. After leaving behind a traditional path and navigating the emotional rollercoaster of chronic illness, I decided to rewrite the rules of success. And now? I help other women do the same.
Here, we have honest conversations about what it really takes to build a sustainable, profitable business when your health is unpredictable. No hustle culture. No toxic positivity. Just powerful stories, practical strategies, and mindset shifts that work — even on flare days.
You’ll hear from guests who get it, solo episodes from my heart to yours, and insights I’ve learned coaching dozens of women through launching and growing their dream businesses — on their terms.
Because business is personal. And when you build it that way, it not only becomes easier… it becomes life-giving.
