I’ve been wondering how we could each collectively wake the f*ck up to the basics of Love. You too?  So, I have a little story about a monk and a sandwich to share. But first, I’m going to unpack the definition of Common Sense and rant for a minute—because humanity’s Common Sense tank is running on empty, and our collective shadow is louder than ever.  In this episode: What Common Sense really means—and why Common Sense isn’t common The difference between wisdom and opinion (hint: wisdom includes everyone in the solution) Why we’re stuck in polarization—and how to move beyond “us vs ..read more

Loves…  I’m attempting to be useful in two ways today. BONUS. 1) Let’s talk about decision making, how to know when it’s right or wrong. 2) And how the ego loves to look good. And thus! how letting go of status concepts can be radically liberating and HEALING. I once traded a status symbol (sexy Audi, FAST) for a soul symbol (pre-owned VW, FREE). Turns out, less status = more me. More LIFE. In this episode: How the ego masks self-worth struggles with status symbols The surprising freedom in less (and why “downgrade to upgrade” is real) The three red flags that signal a misaligned de ..read more

Waiting is exhausting—and the cost of waiting to be self-expressed is high. Suppressing your life force takes energy, so why do we wait to show up, to express, to create?  This week, I’m talking about the three reasons we stall on our dreams—social conditioning, fear, and fatigue—and how we can move through the resistance.  Because your dreams? They deserve to be yours…sooner. In this episode: The mental, emotional, and spiritual cost of waiting Why “tired of waiting” is literal—and how to shift it The fastest way to break through fear + fatigue How social conditioning has us delayi ..read more

The Prayer of St. Francis is a magnificent prayer for becoming the Divine counterbalance. You can speak this to your Soul or the God of your understanding.  Bear in mind the universal law: “For it is in giving that we receive.” So we are taught by Saint Francis: “And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.” This isn’t necessarily literal death. It’s a dying of the old ways and our illusions of separateness. It’s the awareness that our oneness is eternal life. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: You can download a copy of the Prayer of St. Francis here. Read + listen to the new The Sacred ..read more

We’ve been talking a lot about habits and rituals lately in our Heart Centered Membership community and classes. And our new Heart Centered planner includes a “habit tracker.” ‘Tis the season, right?  But before we jump into optimization mode, we need to look beneath the surface into our psyche to examine what’s really up when we wake up.

And that’s why we chose this episode of With Love, Danielle as a BEST OF episode.  Danielle explains how she created her own therapeutic approach to mornings because “morning ..read more
