Get Your Life Together, Girl

Do you make sound decisions and bounce back quickly when hard times occur? Unfortunately, most people struggle with doing so because they are missing one fundamental daily practice that helps them thrive when life brings a storm their way. What is it? It's the practice of daily resiliency building. This week we're taking a one-on-one deep dive into what resiliency is and how we can mindfully creat...

Oh, my goodness, this is the 100 th episode of the Get Your Life Together, Girl Podcast! What an adventure this has been—I'm so grateful for everyone who has listened, written in, asked questions, and suggested topics. You've made all 100 episodes incredibly special. I'm excited to see what another 100 brings. Today, I thought we would chat about purpose! So, let's dive in. First, I want us to shi...

Emotions give us humanity, and although we often make the mistake of classifying them into only negative and positive, every emotion is necessary and valuable as they influence every part of our daily lives. We make decisions based on whether we are happy, angry, sad, bored, or frustrated. We choose activities and hobbies based on the emotions they incite. Understanding emotions can help us naviga...

Find a comfortable position and take a full deep breath. Settle into this moment, finding stillness and ease. Allow your mind to soften, releasing anything outside this moment with yourself. Settle, close your breath, and close your eyes. Change is the flow of life. It is the essence of life itself. We live and grow in seasons—the season of light and joy where grace and gratitude are born, the sea...

Your thoughts are powerful. They create your reality, but if your thoughts are not based on truth, the reality you create is off-balanced and holding you back. This week we're taking a one-on-one deep dive into examining the common lies we tell ourselves, why these powerful misdirectors show up in our lives, how they run against our ability to love ourselves fully, and how to break up with these m...

Nearly everyone has heard the term "mindfulness," but not everyone knows what mindfulness actually means. In fact, if you type the word Mindfulness into Google, you'll be overwhelmed by the number of articles, books, videos, and content that appears. So I'll save you two minutes—once you hit enter, over 739 MILLION results appear on Google alone. Xander from Rhodes, Greece, wrote in and said, "Dan...

The road to self-love often comes with both endings and new beginnings. Yet, the ends tend to undo us and make us doubt our worth, abilities, and self-esteem, especially when talking about our most intimate relationships. In continuing our search for building self-love, I sat down with my friend, Laura Patricia Martin, the host of the Happy and Healing Podcast, as she and I moved through what it t...

Find a comfortable position and take a full deep breath. Allow your body to find stillness and let your shoulders relax. Give yourself permission to slow your mind as your breath moves in and out. Allow yourself to soften into the moment. A moment of affirmation. A moment of body positivity. A moment to appreciate the whole of you, as you are, in your capacities, fierceness and splendor. Draw in a...

Let me ask you a question: What do you see when you stand in the mirror? Do you like the way you look? Do you immediately notice your perceived flaws and begin to feel upset with what is before you? Body image is not merely superficial. It can be so intense that it dysregulates your emotional well-being and mental and physical health, while it creates a storm so big that you struggle to find balan...

Have you ever asked yourself, "Why am I here?" "What is my purpose?" Or worse, "How did I get here?!" Not knowing your purpose or how your life has been molded into something you cannot recognize as yours directly challenges self-love, inner peace, and overall life fulfillment. The truth is taking steps, no matter how small, to live in alignment with our soul's purpose can drastically change our i...

Balance and fulfillment go hand-in-hand. To be out of balance means to be at odds with yourself, to be in a space where what you want and need are out of alignment with where you are. Yet, most women will say they are fulfilled but don't live balanced lives. Valentina from Puerto Rico wrote in and said: Danielle, I am a member of your Women's Circle and was working through the exercise: Getting to...

Every day we have an opportunity to start over—to dig our heels in, extract what is working in our lives and give ourselves permission to release what is not. As simple as that sounds, the radical act of starting over is far more entitled and can be paralyzing for some. Yet, no matter how many roadblocks we put in place or experience in our lives, the truth is: that each of us has the power to sta...

Each of us comes to a space and time in our lives where endings occur, things change, doors close, and new pathways open. While change, starting over, and finding new ground can be comfortable, it can also be the most revolutionary experience of your lifetime. It's in this time, this moment, that together we claim and honor where you are and where you are headed. It's at this moment that we welcom...

This week we're doing something a bit different. Life coach Rachel Varitimos from the ‎A to B With Rachel V.  podcast invited me on her show to talk about the long-term impact of negative thoughts and negative thought cycles. The conversation was so good that I had to share it with you. Together, Rachel and I uncover how your thoughts can own you, how to overcome anxiety produced by your thoughts,...

Do you lack patience? Being patient is a massive struggle for many people, but for women, especially. Some of our impatience is due to our many roles and responsibilities, and some lead back to our habits and routines. Jill from Manchester, England, wrote in and said, "Thank you for creating the mindset resets, Danielle. I've been following the podcast and am a part of the Instagram community, and...

A misconception about loving ourselves has been touted by self-proclaimed personal development gurus that is dead wrong. Many believe that self-love is a one-off thing that we are "supposed to do." Yet, the truth is that self-love is the result of healing, growth, and putting all the pieces of greatest selves into place. So, loving ourselves isn't a "thing" we are supposed to do; it is "THE" thing...

Find a comfortable position and take a full deep breath. Allow your body to find stillness, letting your shoulders relax, and your mind soften into the moment. Listen to the sounds buzzing around you. Focus your attention there and take another full deep breath. With your exhale, prepare your heart and mind for a journey of welcoming ease and deep relaxation that is mentally, emotionally, spiritua...

For many women, confidence is a moving target. It's something they want but don't feel they actively have. To give you the proven steps to build unshakable confidence, I sat down with the queen of confidence building Jacqui Letran. In the next hour, she hands over the roadblocks we experience, the grounded steps to change your lack patterns, and then she walks us through an exercise that has radic...

Do you ever feel like you are a different person to different people in your life? Do some people see one side of you while others do not? Or, do you ever feel like you struggle to express yourself fully? Maybe you knowingly hide behind who you truly are deep inside? If so, you are not fully engaging with and living through your most authentic self. Many women are on a quest to live a more authent...

Find a comfortable position and take a full deep breath. Sitting with your back tall and your shoulders relaxed, close your eyes. Prepare your mind and heart for a journey through the self to deliver loving-kindness to every ounce of your being—the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual self.   As your mind finds a calm state, allow your breath to find a pattern of ease, deepening every few br...

If I were to ask you if you practice self-kindness or fierce loving kindness, could you honestly say yes? Practice as in this is a daily focus. Most women struggle in this area. And that's why I sat down with Rosie Aiello, founder of the Love is Kind Network, to talk about how we can bridge the gap between where we are and where we want to be. Rosie's story spans the globe as she found herself in...

Your daily habits and routines are far more critical and impactful than you may think. One of the complaints or misalignments I hear is that many women feel their lives are not what they wanted them to be. They feel stuck, uninspired, off-balance, and certainly not peaceful. Yet, when I ask for them to walk me through their day-to-day life, we can often root out that they are simply not engaging i...

In the years I've worked with women, one concept continually comes up. For some, it's taboo. For others, there's a deep curiosity and desire to understand how it works. For another group, there's complete dismissal. No matter where you stand, you are likely using this principle in your daily life without even realizing it. What is it? It's the Law of Attraction. Maybe you're scratching your head a...

Find a comfortable position and take a full deep breath. Let your body settle from the crown of your head to the tips of your toes. Allow tension to flow from you with each exhale you take. Roll your shoulders down your back, settling in a space that feels natural and relaxed. If comfortable, place one hand over your heart and the other below your belly button—feel your chest rise with a slightly...

One of the most significant questions each of us can ask ourselves is how may I serve? With the unprecedented political changes in the United States after last week's Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe vs. Wade, many women now question their options regarding their bodies—especially for couples who struggle with the inability to get pregnant or carry a baby to term. With so much on the line,...
