WITH LOVE, DANIELLE

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 lives (Kind of a big deal). So this podcast session is a micro workshop on your relationship to the healing areas of your life. A little philosophy, a little esoterica, a lot of practicality. We're looking at stillness, body, silence, quality of sleep and more––connecting to ALL the healing sources. In Episode #94 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE we explore: How the body's function is to transmit Love + Q's to help you become a stronger conduit. Why, in our productivity obsessed societies, stillness is actually the power move. Want to know my theory on meditation? An inquiry for all levels of mediators and the meditation-resistant. Prayer as one of the most intimate forms of conversations––and how analyzing your relationship to prayer can shift you into deeper self love. What happens when we intentionally choose silence. How to show up to nature to recharge (hint: first with gratitude and then to make our healing requests.) If this is nourishing in any way, please leave a review, subscribe, maybe pass it on to a friend who needs some healing this week. Let's get some Love and Light into the algorithm. Mentioned in this episode: THE NOURISH SYSTEM. A heart centered approach to nervous system regulation. Compassionate, everyday practices delivered over 8 weeks. Tools and healing for a lifetime.

Ram Dass "Silence is not an absence of sound, but rather a shifting of attention towards sounds that speak to the soul." Thomas Moore "You will not be left behind if you pause. You will gain more insight about your journey, and this may cause you to change course. So perhaps that is what some of us fear in the pause, that they will finally realize that another way is calling them." Octavia Raheem "If part of your legacy were to change the relationship to rest and self-care for your family lineage, how would you begin?"

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 light. In Episode #93 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE I'm sharing: 10 reasons we isolate––why we pull back from people, places and experiences. What fear-driven isolation does to us, and what heart centered, healthy isolating looks like. One way that I've created conditions of healing for myself, and tips to seek out safe spaces for community (even if you're reluctant… like I used to be) Why we need to acknowledge the fatigue that comes from playing by someone else's rules (hint: it frees up our life force) How showing up imperfectly (please let go of perfectionism) is part of the of the isolation solution Retreating is sometimes the absolute necessity––wise. And other times, it's a slope to sadsville. I just want you to know that you can pour light on the situation, no matter what it is.

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. We're fried. Frayed. AND… We are Love. We want to show up as Love. We want to receive Love. We want to give Love. And whether we're conscious of it or not, we know on some level that our relationships are THE vehicle for healing, self-awareness, for getting closer to our Higher Self… It ALL happens in relationships. Episode #91 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is the third in a 3 part conversation on nervous system regulation. It's about learning how to meet our triggers (hello, Inner Child and everyone in the world who's triggering my Inner Child.) And then processing those triggers more mindfully, often physically, so that we don't have to owe––or demand more apologies. In this session we explore: Why we keep trying to solve the wrong problems in our relationships The relational symptoms of nervous system imbalance (overstaying, bickering, the silent treatment and the blame game…) Simple ways to get centered in heated or heartbreaking interactions How to get OUT of the loop of unhealthy behaviors/situations and a dysregulated nervous system––so we can unwire lifelong default stress responses that hinder love, intimacy, expression, and intuition. When the nervous system is strong, then our relating is strong. Less wigging, more loving. To less friction and more freedom.

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-shame + blame, criticism, complaining… How to become the parent of your stress and meet it with Love and Compassionate authority. This is the second in a series of 3 conversations about nervous system healing. If nervous system regulation were the #1 priority for every being on the planet, well that would change… everything for everyone wouldn't it? I think our divine assignment is to create conditions of healing for ourselves. That's it. And it starts with steady love and common sense for stress way less. * ICYMI here's: 4 Types of Stress Responses–what's yours?

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 you––your NERVOUS SYSTEM is very aware. I think that... If each of us focused on regulating our nervous system, it could change the entire world. It starts with knowing your default stress response. In this session of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, I quiz you on your stress style––who wins for best stressed?! And then do my best to offer solutions. ARE YOU A FIGHTER? FLIGHTER? FREEZER or FAWNER? Once you're clear on that, you can see the path to healing. I share 11 beliefs on healing––specifically for our nervous systems. There was a time when my cortisol levels were jacked and everything else was tanked. I'm giving you some very practical things I did that helped me heal. A better you in a bonkers world depends on steady love and your nervous system. - This episode's LOVE NOTE (free prayers, printables, pointers) is a simple before & after exercise to check in with your nervous system and plan for brighter days.

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 from my full, lit up heart center, I'm not serving at full capacity. So. I made a leap. Quantum. I got super clear on: My zone of genius––doing what only *I* can do. Where we're going to have the most impact in the world, not "maybe" but CLEARLY. Investing in my purpose-driven company. And then I went allllll in. And there was some shaking it up. Happy Birthday. Fast forward to the present… My 10 year business is now a start up. High enthusiasm. Agility as a superpower. A gorgeous chaos. A LOT OF CREATIVE DEEPENING. Doubling down on a heart centered way of doing business = more freedom + more REACH AND IMPACT — for everyone involved. In this very special episode of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, I am pulling back the curtain on: How I took my business (and life) down to the studs Why it's one of the most heart centered moves I've ever made How we turned alignment into action, organizational + business model changes, AND saved $30,000 (almost) overnight All the details on our (long asked for!) HEART CENTERED MASTERMIND! This is inner circle-level stuff. Everything is changing for the better. So. Much. To. Tell. You. With Love!

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 think about FAITH––what do we put Faith in when there's atrocity? Or when our personal life is so challenging that we can't even think about what's happening outside of ourselves? And what should we be letting go of so that we can be more graceful in all the fractiousness? I am always wondering, What should I RENUNCIATE? Faith and renunciation are loaded words for some of us, and these are charged concepts in times like these. So… let's go there. WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, Eps #87 is a fresh round of spiritual definitions in under 30 minutes: Embodiment. A consistency in thoughts, speech and action. Faith. Knowing that the light exists, even when it's dark. Renunciation. Letting go of meaningless pursuits and things, that block your connection to your purpose. The Lower Self and the Higher Self: the unhealed self (aka ego) and the Soul… your True Nature. Remember: Your Soul is always calling the shots. Lean in to it.

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 agency family of philosophical go-getters (my favorite combination) and we are redefining what it means for me to write, record and create for the next decade and beyond. These big moves and mergers are happening because I'm very clear how I define success––which has taken a LOT of REDEFINING. I've let go of a lot of identities labels. I've learned what I value most. And My spiritual commitment has helped me be discerning. And that brings me to another one of my favorite combinations: DISCERNMENT and the POWER OF WORDS. In this week's WITH LOVE, DANIELLE (Eps #86) I'm dissecting some of-misconstrued "spiritual" terms: Spirituality: It's undefinable, actually. But I think it's simply, "the practice of thinking with your heart." This is not quite as simple as I make it sound. So please listen in for the break down. Spiritual Bypassing: Where you put a spiritual spin on a "negative" experience to avoid uncomfortable feelings. "Non spiritual" feelings… you know that trick? All seekers become pro's at this until we see how it's holding us back. Spiritual Glamor: When you mix a spiritual PoV with the ego's need to be "special". For example: when one regards their spiritual experience as a qualification for special treatment, or how some folks always find a way to insert their esoteric resume into the conversation… Conscience: You've got one, everyone's got one… Light Guilt + Shadow Guilt. There's useful guilt and drag-you-down guilt. How to tell when your conscience is guiding you or your ego is trippin'... And, Detachment: Less clinging. More trusting. I'm getting into the how-to's of this spiritual art form. Our definitions of spirituality and success define our LIVES. So more consciousness, truth-rooted definitions make for more conscious moves and mergers in our lives. Let's define and refine… This episode's LOVE NOTE (free prayers, printables, pointers) is the Dedication of Merit. Keep it on your phone. P.S. Connect with me on IG ! I'd love to hear your thoughts on Spiritual Bypassing and Glamour… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
