WITH LOVE, DANIELLE – Détails, épisodes et analyse

You got small so you could learn how powerful you truly are.

Every relationship, every betrayal, every "what was I thinking" moment… it's not punishment. It's a form of modern initiation.

You are not behind. You're being initiated.

You've loved people who didn't love you back the way you deserved. You've stayed longer than you should have. You've given the benefit of the doubt—and then wondered why you did.

In this episode, Danielle shares a personal story—raw, funny, honest—about a dating app exchange that challenged her standards.

What if every relationship that confused you, every situation that blindsided you, every "what was I thinking" moment wasn't punishment—but initiation? 

If you've ever questioned your discernment after a hard experience. If you've done the work and still wonder why certain things keep showing up. If you want to know that you can trust yourself again…

Press play.

There are people who hold space. And there are people who actually hold space.

Holding space means holding shadow and holding light—and holding yourself while you hold others.

This episode is Danielle's commencement speech to Xchange, a group of teachers and facilitators led by Jon Berghoff. It's a love letter to everyone who gets on stage to lead—virtually or in high heels.

Embracing your fear is your greatest strength. You can't change anybody, but you will change people's lives. Nobody can drain your energy, but you must protect yourself. To bless people is to be blessed.

Listen in for the five contradictions of holding space and the real talk on what it means to own the mic, own the room, and show up as yourself. Plus: why you need to be ready to lead the moment you leave your hotel room, not right before you get on stage.

With Love,
Danielle

This is physics. This is metaphysics. This is the power move.

A sneak peek from my new book, Bless & Release…

We need a new relationship with our emotions and ambitions. Because clearly, the current one is not working.

Here's a radical idea: Instead of repressing, rejecting, or ignoring our suffering, we bring it even closer. Within. Gently. As if we were blessing it.

As if we were alchemists and energy workers. Because we are.

Listen in for the 21 principles of blessing and releasing. The philosophical ground everything is built upon. 

This is physics. And this is metaphysics. And this is the power move that will change everything.

Today, I'm going to offer you a poetic, prayerful something in honor of rest, in honor of authenticity, in honor of the fact that team D is taking essentially the whole month of August to just go into chill mode. And if you are in a place where you can do so, I'm inviting encouraging, trying to live by example for you to do the same by chill mode.

Eps 128 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is deep and sweet. And just for you.

I will be back in September with all new, fresh episodes. We're keeping it deep on behalf of the light. In the meantime, lots of episodes in the bank for you to tune into, prayers to listen to over and over again. Go deep. Get your journal, please. Take me on a walk with you. 

And if anything has ever inspired you, made things a little bit easier, a review or subscription goes a long way in helping us enlighten.

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 deserve more ease, happiness, or Loving Kindness.

Here it is: when we spend energy questioning and bidding to see if we're valued or worthy…it distracts us from healing.

All that asking and validation seeking actually creates MORE confusion and perceived woundedness inside of us.

Episode 127 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is a BEST OF episode from last summer, one of our most popular episodes to date—Please Don't Ask If You're Worthy.

Here's what we get into…

• What happens when we become more blind to our inherent, DIVINE WORTH? (We spin.)
• Why do we believe we need to earn our worth? And, 
• When we find ourselves asking ourselves or others (typically unconsciously) if we're worthy or valuable, instead, let's wonder, "Why did I ask that?" It's a popcorn trail to your pain and power.
• Here's a life shifting question to apply, DAILY: What does my unhealed self need right now? (aka, your Inner Child)

This episode includes a short visualization exercise that I guide and it's simple enough to remember that you can take it with you. 

We have been in this worthy/unworthy dialogue for eons, it is part of the human dance––so we have some stuff to unpack.

With Love,

Danielle

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 beads, or escaping to beautiful Bali (although, those are cool too)...

Episode 126 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is a BEST OF episode from last summer, one of our most popular episodes to date—8 Signs That You're Healing.

You know you're healing when…

1. You make space to respond, not react…
2. Fixing other people's issues is not your primary concern…
3. Loving on ALL parts of yourself is COMFORTING…
4. Respecting the other person is as important as respecting yourself…
5. Leaning into pain points is what you do best.
6. You GENTLY silence your inner critic.
7. Loving your friends and family feels like your greatest gift.
8. Listening to your soul is your top priority…

Listen in to learn more.

You've got the love AND the healing. 

Danielle

The seeds of our desires get watered by… our focus!

But manifestation is a balancing act of intense focus and relaxed Faith.

Episode 125 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is a BEST OF episode from last summer, one of our most popular episodes to date—How Focus Improves Your Manifesting

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 choose our thoughts more intentionally, we get more of what  things we want.
• What's the difference between FOCUS and CONCENTRATION? Well, focus with me for the 35 minutes of this podcast and we'll get into it!

Focus is a learned skill that we can strengthen. I'll take you through a short meditative experience, then we end with a simple practice you can do daily to improve your concentration. 

All for Love,

Danielle

When I think about being loved by The Divine, protected, supported… I think about how I love my son. It's my closest experience to being an Almighty Authority and oft' disrespected Deity, but Ultimately Adored Creator 🥰 

I'm going to connect the dots to caring for kids and wondering if God has a plan for humanity. Stick with me, it's a good trip.

Other Qs I attempted to answer are:

• How to heal yourself when you're caregiving for someone else
• Dealing with angry, super annoying fools
• And why I have way fewer boundaries than I used to

Episode 124 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE might heal some apocalyptic thinking (which used to be my specialty,) and help us to see the beauty in the hardships.

MENTIONED IN EPISODE 124:

• Ram Dass, Becoming Nobody documentary
• The Conscious Lab elevated event space in downtown Vancouver

Really deep questions + pleas for encouragement are the soundtrack of my life! 

AND... it's the vibe of this Q&A session. 

"Whatchya think about climate collapse, grandchildren, fertility, water?"

I have so many thoughts to share––many of them are OUT THERE.

"I get a lot of anxiety when I have something good on the horizon. Tools to deal with that?"

Let me explain why this is a natural (albeit annoying) human phenomenon.

Eps 123 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is a shadow-light conversation. Might be comforting, might be provocative. May it be healing.

MENTIONED IN EPISODE 123:

• Use code DANIELLE10 at checkout for 10% off Somavedic's EMF-blocking harmony device. 
• Read Issue 8 of Sacred Weekends on the energetics of fabric. (And don't forget to subscribe!)

To be seen, heard, felt, understood is a HUMAN REQUIREMENT. But there are healthy, more conscious ways to go about getting these essential needs met. 

Today's episode is a highlight from our recent Life Workshop: ACTUALLY HEALTHY VALIDATION where we explore:

• When and why do you reach out for validation?
• What part of you is seeking validation?
• What part of you is giving validation?
• If you were more Heart Centered, how would that shift your relationship to validation?

This episode of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE (122) is for creating relationships that are resentment free…and healing.

Approach your relationships with respect rather than… lashing out. Curiosity rather than… projection. Appreciation rather than…resentment.

MENTIONED IN EPISODE 122
