About Nikita “Niki” Powell-Cottman

Niki Powell-Cottman, is a woman of God, wife, mother, grandmother, mental health leading light, author, coach, mentor and transformational speaker. She is impacting lives globally with her mental health magazine, RallyUp, while leading the movement #rallyup2savelives to normalize mental health and end suicide. With over a decade of education, training, and work experience in the mental health field, as well as her own life experiences, Niki is strengthening families by cultivating hope from within, hoping to keep other parents from experiencing the pain she felt watching her child fight for her life after several attempts of suicide.

Her fight for her daughter birthed We Fight Foundation Inc., fighting alongside her daughter, other youth and young adults who have mental illnesses, as well as other parents/caregivers, helping them develop safe spaces for them to work through life challenges and normal stressors that can cause mental stress. Niki’s hope is to reduce risky behaviors like, self-harm, self-medicating or sadly suicide.

Niki’s life was not a cakewalk. She did not allow childhood abuse, teen pregnancy, domestic violence, caring for a mentally ill teen or divorce to stop her! She went from brokenness, shamefulness, helplessness and hopelessness, to a prayer warrior and intercessor carrying out her purpose while transforming lives. Niki and her daughter continue to live by their motto, “I Fight, You Fight, We Fight Together!”
