About Me
Jordan Nixon, Founder
Intentional. Empathetic. Maverick.
Born and raised in Harlem, New York City, I pursued a college basketball career before deciding to dedicate myself to storytelling.
I define success as leaving no stone unturned and happiness as being who I am without interruption. How do you define each of those things? And what do you need to do to get a little closer to both of them?
My mission is to build platforms and make space for people to find the resources—be they people or things— they need to reassemble and to ultimately reclaim wholeness. I believe wholeness comes about when you connect with your inner child, and give that person what he/she/they both need. But you need space to do so. Books, questions, conversations, podcasts are spaces in the same way that rooms, buildings and environments are and we need to treat them as such.
My hope is that you rediscover the hidden and suppressed and parts of yourself in APRBLEM and its spaces here that I have created with both you and my younger self in mind.
Words I live by:
"I'm rooted, but I flow."
Virginia Woolf
“The place in which I'll fit will not exist until I make it.”
James Baldwin
"...in every community we need a group of angelic troublemakers”
Bayard Rustin
“At the end of the day people won't remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel.”
Maya Angelou
​
“no person is your friend (or kin) who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow and be perceived as fully blossomed as you were intended. Or who belittles in any fashion the gifts you labor so to bring into the world.”
Alice Walker
