“I think my heart is what sets me apart from most people,” says Nikki Mahana, our July Creator of the Month feature. “My hobbies include making cute fruit spreads and relaxing naked by the water.” Doing just that, Nikki is on set with the photographer, Sebby Raw, in this exciting debut. “I
... grew up in the Y2K pop culture era, so I’ve known about Playboy since [then],” she says. “I remember thinking how hot the girls looked and how cool it would be to be on posters like them. Now I’m Playboy’s Creator of the Month for July! It feels unreal.” For Nikki, showing up as your most honest self is empowering. “To me, female empowerment is channeling in on your most authentic, raw self and living in your truth unapologetically. I feel most empowered when I’m able to do what I love despite what anyone else has to say about it,” she shares. “Posing nude for me feels natural. I think there should be less of a stigma to it. Being nude doesn’t correlate to having low self-worth or not respecting yourself,” she continues, “I think if you are capable of showing the world everything you got, then you must have the most confidence of all.” Stay tuned for more from Nikki Mahana right here on Playboy Plus!
