Danielle To You 's Podcast

In this episode, I unravel the storm of 2017, starting with my son’s birth by C-section, a fragile three pounds, fighting in the NICU until he passed at home in May. By July, pregnant again, I buried my shame and rage, questioning God, terrified of losing another. Bed rest and weekly shots marked my anxious days, but an ex-husband’s insistence led to a reckless Thanksgiving night, forcing an emergency C-section less than ten months later, chaotic and risky. She arrived to “Here Comes the Sun,” tiny and beautiful, rushed to the NICU. Through tears, I reflect on losing my son, feeling like a failure despite my body’s fight.  Too scared to hold her, I pumped milk, bracing for her end, but she defied odds. Teaching her sign language, I found my unscarred self in her smile, her love mending my pain. She’s my sun, proving light follows darkness, a mirror of my healed spirit

In this  deeply personal episode, I bare the unseen battle of birthing twins in a tub at home, a secret I’ve carried in silence. Discovering my pregnancy with lifeless twins after a quiet ultrasound, I hid my grief while bartending, pacing through labor until delivering them, and fainting from blood loss. The weight of losing Infinite and Divine crushed me, yet I showed up daily, masking my pain. Through tears, I reflect on , feeling like a failure despite my body’s strength. No more trying, just the messy truth of my unseen struggle. I recall the shock of labor, the isolation without support, and the shame that silenced me, fearing judgment for my body’s repeated trials. Each loss, from my first son at 36 weeks to my daughter at 26, left scars, yet I stand here, letting this truth breathe. It’s a story of survival, not perfection, as I face the void left by those I couldn’t save. I’m Talkin To You , Im Talkin Me Too.

In this episode, I wrestle with the parts of me no one sees the silent struggle of no motivation and paralysis when faced with choice. Rooted in past trauma, I’ve lived in survival mode, moving only when the fire’s under me, but I’m tired of the chaos. Through tears, I unpack how my mother’s roots and ex-husband’s control shaped this freeze, pushing me to reclaim my voice. I reflect on rare days with my kids, fighting to show up as myself, not a perfect mom. There’s no easy fix, just the messy truth of waging war on what holds me back. I’m talkin to you,  I’m talkin to me too

Today I pour into myself, choosing subtraction by addition, letting go of the parts that crave attention from those who overlook me, and finding strength in my own worth. Join me as I unravel the pain of chasing unavailable love, confront my role in my own hurt, and learn to choose myself over fleeting connections. Watching him carry two water glasses, neither for me, stung deeply. I saw him choose others, sweet and considerate, while I stood waiting, complicit in a game I’m losing. I’m jealous of his freedom to choose without care, while I wrestle with people-pleasing and self-doubt. This moment forces me to face my patterns, to admit I’d still answer his call, and to grow one water glass at a time, shedding the roots of my mother’s wounds.

I’m at war with myself, holding onto a life that doesn’t satisfy, where shame and anxiety grow when I ignore what I know. My therapist’s words bring back a rainy drive with my dad, when he taught me to keep driving through the storm, not to stop. That lesson guides me now as I face the familiar pain I’ve called safe, the parts of me that thrived in chaos but can’t follow me into the peace I’m chasing.

Today I choose to love myself through the storm, embracing my wins, losses, hurts, and joys, finding strength to move forward even when fear whispers to stay still. Join me as I unravel why I cling to chaos, question the spaces that no longer serve me, and build a foundation rooted in self-trust. Letting go of the old me feels like losing a friend

On Father’s Day I reflect on the father who raised me, the father I lost, and the daughter I shield from my truth. Join me as I navigate family lore, betrayal, and the silence I’m learning to break. For 26 years I believed my father was a man named Gus. My grandmother swore I looked just like his sister, my aunt. But at 26 my mother revealed the truth. My father was Dino, a man tied to my family’s history in ways I never imagined. His sister, who I called grandma, helped raise me. His daughter, my sister, shared my face. I learned this after his death, after his funeral where I wept, unaware of our connection. This episode unravels the pain of not knowing, the weight of secrets, and the monsters who walk free while I carry their shame.
