EP 56 - HUSTLE , HEART, HEALING FT NIM K

In this episode of the Where Are We Podcast, Andre X kicks it with Nim K — an artist and musician who’s been creating in her own lane since she was young. The convo starts off chill, talking about art, music, and how she first learned to express herself through drawing and painting. Nim breaks down why watercolor is her go-to, how she uses art to process her feelings, and what it’s been like growing up around a family full of creativity.We get into her experience with synesthesia, how she hears sounds as colors, and how that actually plays a big role in how she makes music and connects to visuals. She talks about painting versus songwriting, and why she feels certain people always respond faster to music than fine art.The conversation also touches on the realities of being a woman on stage — including a story about a time a guy overstepped at one of her performances and how she had to handle it. Nim keeps it honest about boundaries, respect, and safety while performing.She opens up about her background: running track, trying to live up to expectations as the “good kid,” balancing school and creativity, and learning how to stand on her own as she grew up. Then she breaks down the meaning behind one of her newer songs, “Only Lord Knows,” and how it came from navigating a lot of new changes in her life — new environments, new challenges, and people misunderstanding her journey. It's about growth, pressure, and figuring out who you are when everything around you is shifting.This episode is low-key, honest, and shows a different side of Nim — not just the music, but the person behind it. If you want to understand her story, how she thinks, and where she’s headed, this is the one to watch.TIMESTAMP:00:00 Intro​00:40 Introductions / roll up segment​05:00 Coping & creativity​10:00 Painting vs music​16:00 Family & expression​22:00 How people consume art​28:00 Synesthesia & energy​34:00 Handling emotions​40:00 Shows & boundaries​46:00 “Hood famous” & track​52:00 Golden child pressure​52:10 S.DOT (sex, drugs & other things)​58:00 Early hustles​1:04:00 Live music & voice​1:09:00 Recording style​1:12:00 “Only Lord Knows” & outro​ FOLLOW OUR GUEST AT :IG -  @nimboujee  YOUTUBE -  @nimboujee  STREAM HER MUSIC EVERYWHERE AT NIM K ❤️ FOLLOW US ON ALL SOCIALS - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/wherearewepodFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/people/Where-Are-We-PodcastPodcast #podcast #mentalhealth #interviews
