An exotic dancer whose body went from the strongest it had ever been to suddenly struggling with basic movement is now using her platform to show disabled women they can still feel confident and sexy.
Nat Nicole, from Ohio, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis while going back to school for her bachelor’s degree.
She says the diagnosis changed everything almost overnight.
“My body went from the strongest it had ever been, to not even being able to hold a cup,” Nat told NudeNewz.
“I was able to climb a pole one day and the next my legs weren’t working.”
After a three-week stay in hospital and rehabilitation, Nat found herself in a wheelchair and struggling with how she saw herself.
With a traditional job no longer an option, she decided to try social media instead.
But rather than hide what she was going through, Nat made it central to her message.
“I decided I wanted to show other women that being disabled doesn’t mean you can’t be sexy,” she said.
“So I started making content in my wheelchair, showing off my hotness while not hiding the fact that I’m sick.”
Nat says the wheelchair is now mostly a tool that helps her keep moving forward, rather than something that defines her.
“It’s a really helpful tool to keep me from being held back,” she said.
“But my main goal is for women to know that illness doesn’t remove sex appeal.”
She describes her brand as funny, body-positive and rooted in activism.
“I’m not afraid to use my voice,” Nat said.
“I love that I’ve been given a platform to do more than have a big butt.”
Alongside her content, Nat has also started sharing poetry, something she believes is rare in the creator space.
“I share poetry now, and post things that some people don’t want to hear, because they NEED to,” she said.
She hopes her page can offer people more than just visuals.
“I hope that I’m the creator for when you need a good laugh, an uplifting view, or a poem to share with someone who can relate,” she added.
Nat says her confidence has grown massively since starting.
“I am sooooo much more confident now,” she said.
“I’ve become a person who is CERTAIN I can do anything I put my mind to.”
Her efforts have not gone unnoticed – Nat recently won an award for “favourite creator with a disability.”
She has also learned the importance of sticking to boundaries and focusing on what feels right.
“Create content that makes YOU feel good,” Nat said.
“When I started creating content that makes me wanna scroll through my own page, the job became a lot more fun and enjoyable for me.”
Looking ahead, Nat has big plans for the next year.
“I’d like to hit another six figure+ year,” she said.
“I plan to do more collabs and travelling in 2026.”
She also hopes to build something beyond content.
“I hope to have my non-profit going,” she said.
“I’ll be starting a new season of my podcast as well which is a huge goal for me.”
And when the work feels heavy, Nat keeps a private reminder of the impact she’s having.
“I have a folder full of screenshots of kind messages and comments,” she said.
“When I’m having a rough day, I can look back and see the kindness and positivity that comes with the job.”
From exotic dancer to wheelchair user to award-winning creator and advocate, Nat’s message is clear: disability does not erase beauty, desire, or self-worth.
