Episode Details

Nikki Mark is the author of a highly moving memoir titled Tommy’s Field: Love, Loss, and the Goal of a Lifetime, about the unexpected passing of her 12-year-old son Tommy and her unconventional journey to create a legacy for Tommy and to heal her heart. In this heartfelt memoir, Nikki, who has led operations for high-powered hospitality and sports team start-ups, captures the power of play, inspiration, unity, and healing as she transformed neglected land in a Los Angeles public park into a state-of-the-art athletic field. Nikki is now the founder and president of the TM23 Foundation, which she created to honor Tommy, his love of soccer, and his spirit of play with others.
