How my path is your beginning

Hi, I’m Danielle

I’m going to be vulnerable with you. I’m going to share my path with you. My life with you. And most importantly how my love for YOU started.

The path that got me here. The one that helped me to get to you.

My life has been a series of next steps with each one becoming clearer, only when I learned to trust my unique life path.

I grew up knowing that I was different and sensitive because I felt so deeply in what was right and what was wrong. My rebel self knew that my sensitivity was my superpower, even when it was used against me. At a young age, I knew others were secretly scared of my radiant light.

I always felt like the outsider, learning to watch the behavior of others to find the ways they wanted me to support them. This stage of my life was all about “What does life even mean? What does the synergy of unique situations even mean?”

I discovered that I was the one that influenced the energy of my environment, not only of “The party,” but in all situations. For example, when I knew that Craig, my late husband was leaving me earthside, as I transitioned into the title of “widow”..(by the way, I hate that word), I knew he would be with me helping me harness my power even though he was no longer physically by my side. That’s when I realized that our union became one that was even stronger and more liberating. I love this relationship with all of my heart and soul.

In that moment, when I started to say goodbye to Craig, I felt like a mosaic piece of art - shattered into a million glimmering pieces and I knew that the pieces I chose in that moment were crucial in how I would heal, love and help others in the years to come.

As you can see, my life has been divinely orchestrated for me, but ultimately for YOU, my new friend. So one day, I was invited to a party and asteroid-like gift fell into my lap. Que in my husband, Eric - he knew he wanted to be a rock for me as I was processing my healing and respected the union that Craig and I shared.

As our friendship grew, I knew I didn’t want to be a girlfriend after having the title as sacred as wife and “widow.” I wanted a relationship that was rooted in compassion first - love and understanding. As we blossomed, we had so many people asking us “Are you sure? Can you handle it? Will you be able to understand her perspective?”. We realized it was others that couldn’t handle that LOVE IS ENORMOUS.

P.S., my now husband, Eric, understands that my love for Craig doesn’t stop the love I have for Eric.

My next big transition of titles was when I left being a social worker because I felt as if I was living within RED tape and tightly bound within its structure. I couldn’t break through to help the people that crossed my path in the way my heart desired to. It’s like I knew there was way more available not only for me but for my clients. I knew in my bones that medicine came in many forms and not just pills. (I believe there’s a time for medication and a time for meditation).

Que, holistic healing into my life.

Being able to do this silent and transformational work of putting myself together YET again. It gives others the light to follow my lead, where love and grace meet.

Me coming home to myself gifted me the ANSWER I always sought after…What does this all mean?

I finally knew when love and grace meet us through every transition that this was my path toward unconditional forgiveness and light.

When we get to the other side of the headache and let me tell you - it’s been 6+ years of resolving the layers of grief, it shows up for me as heartaches. That’s where our power lies. In the courageous act of taking a step forward.

If you’ve made it this far, hello new friend, I want you to know that I honor and respect what brought me back home to myself. I want this for you also.

I know that with this level of power comes so much responsibility. I knew my expression, quirks, and unique self is my way of showing others they have permission to influence their own life and a life full of bliss.
