Description

Hi, I'm Dani! I love people and I love talking about the human experience. I'm a seeker and a connector. From a very young age I've believed in the power of discourse and critical thinking - and that "because this is how we've always done it" is not a valid reason to keep doing things a certain way.  

In every episode I sit down with a different guest (or guests) and dive into how they are challenging the status quo and choosing unconventional paths in life. Together, we explore their insights, experiences, and stories around specific themes. The mission is to open our hearts and minds so we can consciously explore ways to live more authentically, intentionally, and on purpose. And hopefully break through outdated paradigms despite what we've been told or taught.

I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Minna Dubin, author of MOM RAGE: The Everyday Crisis of Modern Motherhood. We talked about all the things that not enough people (in my humble opinion) are naming and talking about in regards to Moms and the expectations and pressure we put on them, paired with all the ways we are not supporting, acknowledging, or listening to them. We asked the questions, "Why is motherhood not working for so many people?" and "Why are so many women not ...
Oh boy this was a fun interview! I loved talking with Maya Culbertson‑Lane about all the things including her journey as a performance artist and clown, what clowning means to each of us and the role it plays, her experiences with being an aging woman in the performance world, the intersectionality of her being a therapist and a clown mother - and what that even means, and of course, polyamory and relating and sexuality. The list goes on. Connect with Maya and the Fou Fou Ha's: Fou Fo...
