Exploring Life & Business with Nikki Burnett of Taste Life Nutrition
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
For as long as I can remember I have loved animals and science. I grew up with dogs, horses, cats, birds, fish, and rats—they were mostly my brothers’ pets. This led me to study animal science, and I graduated with an MS in Animal Science. As a graduate assistant, I was running the horse breeding operation and teaching undergrad classes. After graduation, the hard reality set in, “What in the world was I going to do with this degree?!”
For a short time, I managed a vet clinic and breeding operation where we had George Strait’s horses (nope, I never got to meet him). But I realized that this was not the life I wanted.

Meet Trailblazer Nikki Burnett, Functional Nutritionist
“I grew up in small-town Texas. As long as I can remember, I wanted to be a veterinarian – I never considered anything else. Even as I went through college, then grad school (at “The Cowboy Capital of the World”) all I wanted to do was play with horses – so that’s how I started my early career – playing with horses and helping manage a premier breeding operation where we held the breeding horses for a major country singer.
Then one day, as I walked through the barns dirty and sweaty, it hit me – ‘Is this REALLY what I want to do with my life??’ Ugh! So now what am I going to do?…”
