WITH LOVE, DANIELLE

Charlie Brown's famous words "My anxieties have anxieties!" is a reality for people with anxiety "disorders." Anticipating, forecasting and predicting …worry, unease and nervousness. All of which create symptoms that create a fear that the symptoms will last forever. This is part 2 in my 4 part series on Healing With Anxiety and I embed an anxiety quiz for you in this episode (#103). We'll see whi...

Our 4 part series on How To Heal with Anxiety starts here, with Love. With some help from conventional sources, the metaphysical practitioner on our team, V.S., and my own experiences with anxiety and healing, I'm setting the stage for us to look at basic anxiety "disorders" and to move toward healing measures. You will see yourself, and/or your loved ones and the world at large in this list of an...

What part of you is saying your affirmations? Your fearful part, or your faithful self? Who's doing the affirming? I've been going off about the down-side of self help affirmations for yuh-earrs. But complaining is a kind of affirmation, inn't? So… I'm shifting into solutions. But in order to get to that higher consciousness, we've got to unpack the unconscious stuff. There's a sequencing for crea...

Welcome to Episode 100 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE ! Thanks for rollin' deep with me times 100! I don't take a single listen, click, share, or comment for granted.  So… Is your inner child choosing your relationships? Short answer: Ya. Totally. Consciously or unconsciously. It's not bleak, babe, it's a good thing. Because your Inner Child is choosing the relationships that lead you to your power .  We...

Hello Loves,  I know there's a lot of disappointment in spiritual teachers and public figures who are silent during these times. I hear it daily in my DMs. "Thank you for speaking up, I'm so disappointed in other people in this space." I understand. I relate. And… it makes me wince. I'm grateful for the resonance but I'm not cheering on the criticism of others.  We don't need to find additional re...

You know… I've felt like an outsider most of my life. Lil' bit on the outside. And of course I've had my share of hard No's and reeejection. And… but… each rebuff and snub is taking us closer to our shadow territory, to the beautiful, unhealed stuff that's waiting to be healed. I recently taught a class on rejection in our Heart Centered Membership and it was a tender one. We've strung the diamond...

Hello Loves ,  Why do we get sick? Like really? My man and I decided to spend a month in Nicaragua to keep my lungs in prime conditions. Paradise on the cheap plus in-person time with my Team D wing woman Dana, who's built a beautiful life there with her family. Perfection! Within 48 hours of arriving… I got sicker than I've been in years. Have I not been meditating enough? Ingesting enough franki...

Hello Loves,  You're bigger than your to-do list, and I knowwww, your to-do list is BIG.  Does just the thought of slowing down make your palms sweat? It is possible to prioritize deeper rest without sacrificing momentum. And I've got just the woman (she's an actual empress of rest) to teach about it. I asked my beloved friend, Tracee Stanley to guest in our Heart Centered Mastermind .  You're abo...

Today is a good one. I've been waiting to deliver this for a while and because I think there's a missing piece in the current cultural conversation around the nervous system which is… the connection between our dysregulation and the quality of our relationships.  A nervous system that's nourished, regulated and healthy can roll with ALL KINDS OF EXPERIENCES. We can be flexible, spacious, and toler...

I'd bet that you've never been asked this question before: What's your relationship to what nourishes you?  Because even though we KNOW what's good for us, we don't always go there.  Here's the thing: everything is energy. And we're always exchanging energy. So we're actually relating to different healing ideas and modalities.  And! the  quality of our relationships determines the quality of our l...

Let's talk about all the shades of isolation. Chosen aloneness. Solitude. Go it on your own. Hangin' out the 'do not disturb' sign. Pressin' the HARD PAUSE BUTTON. Isolation, like everything else in life, has shadows and light. I think this conversation is important because, unexamined, it can turn into nervous system dysregulation. Darkness, disassociation, sadness.  So let's hold it up into the...

There's been a lot of newness in my business and life lately, so I want to anchor in with those of you who've been with me for a while (some of you, a decade!) and to add some BTS to all of you coming into this little corner of the universe. First up: THANK YOU. I don't take one click or sign up or listen for granted. Honestly I'm always amazed when people show up to things. Gigs, classes, I just...

Catch that subject line? It's not your relationship. It's you.  Slightly provocative? Yes. Likely true on the deepest level? Also yes.  Almost everything that I've had to apologize for in a relationship––or that I've wanted an apology for, had to do with my nervous system being too jacked or too drained.  The current human reality (you, me, the planet…) We're generally dysregulated, out of balance...

Let's talk about stress, baby. Let's talk about nerves and mind loops and … relaxation. As always when we go into the shadowy stuff, I've got some light-backed solutions. In this episode of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE:  9 ways we create unnecessary stress –– the stuff that drains, dysregulates, grinds on our nervous systems. Holistic suggestions for interrupting stress cycles like thought loops, self-sham...

Here's where I think we're at:  The past few years on the planet Earth have done a number on our nervous systems. A lot of us are experiencing adrenal fatigue, waves of anxiety, and difficulty sleeping. A general malaise of despair. And it turns out that all of this was a precursor to these last few weeks and months of warful insanity.  And whether YOU'RE conscious of what the stress is doing to y...

Hello Loves,  Let me dial you back in time a bit… my birthday is May 25. I woke up this year and thought,  "I don't want to live and work this way anymore." Who's got cake?! I'd fallen into a pretty classic trap of working FOR my business instead of the business working for my LIFE. I needed to get out of the tasky tasks (read: draining) and back to my deep creativity. Because If I'm not living fr...

Hello Loves… I can be having a conversation about a friend's dating life, or what we're having for dinner and in the back of my heart-mind, I'm thinking about Israeli and Palestinian families. Guilt can accompany some of my daily happinesses… I'm planning a wedding while there's a war. I pray more fiercely. I'm more tired than I should be. Whatever "should be" means in dark times like these. I thi...

My Loves! Welcome to the inaugural podcast edition of SACRED WEEKENDS! I'm sooo excited about this. I've been wanting to do something like this for years. Like…reco's my friends and I text about. Conversations with my Higher Self. Think: chilling with your nervous system, cool music, Netflix that isn't all about numbing out, and communing with the Infinite.  SACRED WEEKENDS will drop 2 Fridays a m...

My Loves, I was in NYC last week and the theme was EXPANSION! ANd more EXPANSION. My Mr. proposed! Yes yes yes to life partnership. He is deep and beautiful and wise and I've been ALL IN since about month two of being with him. Knew it. We're not sure if we're going to get hitched at city hall in our jeans, or throw a festival. But we know it's all ours to DEFINE. I also joined a new literary agen...

We all get out of alignment with our inner truth. It's the human dance. The thing is: The inconsistency has a ripple effect. When we are in cognitive dissonance– we don't hear our Higher Self clearly. We're unable to focus and move forward with glide.  Ideally… What we believe is embodied in our thoughts, speech, action. We're walking the talk. Here's Episode #85 WITH LOVE, DANIELLE:  How we get d...

The seeds of our desires get watered by… our focus! But manifestation is a balancing act of intense focus and relaxed Faith. We're going a few layers deep about:  How to increase the INTENSITY of your focus––which directly correlates to your creative power and ability to make things happen.  The best use of free will––we get to choose the thoughts we believe, and the ones we refuse.  When we choos...

We don't actually need a pep talk about our worthiness. Because…We're all "worthy." And the "worthiness" questioning is, actually, absurd. No one needs to quantify, or qualify themselves for Love. Not one Soul, ever. We don't have to establish if we're deserving of more ease, happiness, or Loving Kindness.  Here it is: when we spend energy questioning and bidding to see if we're valued or worthy…i...

Hey hey! I'm back with another juicy episode! Last week, we explored what spiritual season we find ourselves in.  With all the items on your daily spiritual checklist, you might be wondering, how do I know if this is really working?  In fact, it's been a guiding question of mine: How do you know if all you are doing to be well is helping you be well?  Hint: It's not about the green juice, or mala...

My People!  It's been a long season since I got you some fresh audio love. I've completely renovated my career-business-life in the last 3 months. New ways of working and creating, supported by a new team, new technology. I have a lot to share with you about the experience and expansion. Insight! Relief! Let's ease back in. This is a mini episode (about 10 mins) with a big question: What spiritual...

What is your definition of availability?  How do you manifest and desire from a place of goodwill?   How do you navigate energetic boundaries to allow space for other people's feelings? Today I'm bringing you one of the most dynamic high-energy conversations I've ever had in an interview.  Craig Siegel is a sweetheart, a Jersey boy, a former Wall Street guy who found his heart. And we had a really...
