January 30, 2020 Reframing Yourself
What if you didn’t have to change anything about yourself
in order to experience great change?
You can change the way you see yourself.
When you change the way you see yourself, you change the way you are in the
world. And that changes how others experience you. All you need to do is frame
it differently – but wait, isn’t that faking it?
If you often roll your eyes about “positive
thinking” and prefer to be “realistic” about your weaknesses, this one is for
you. Danette shares a journal exercise that can make you forget what your so-called
weaknesses even are.

January 16, 2020 Listen to Your WIFE
In every good marriage, communication is key. What about your marriage
to yourself? How do you communicate with you?
And most importantly, how do you know if the voice you are writing to is
the one that is coming from love?
In this episode Danette shares the journaling practice that most powerfully serves her self marriage – but don’t worry… you don’t have to be your own wife to do it.

January 02, 2020 Privacy as Self Love
Where does privacy come in when you value
authenticity? How do you be your true self AND keep things private? Who is
curating what you choose to share and not share with others, online or in “real”
life? How is privacy a self love practice?
In this episode, Danette gets a little goofy
in the intro, nostalgic about a special “private” phone from the 80’s and
reminds you – your life is a secret diary and you have the key.

December 19, 2019 What Can You Take Off Your List?
If you are feeling over-saturated with
momentum for the coming New Year, fear not. This is not a podcast about setting
goals or resolutions. This is about less but better.
From buying a boat to cucumber kitchen
gadgets, Danette weaves her way through the importance of good design and
focuses on the unseen costs of maintaining things in our lives – even wonderful
things like sprawling gardens, and other dreams.
How does unchecked maintenance slow us
down and dull intimacy with ourselves?
What is essential for who you are, right
now?
This episode is your permission to let go, release, discontinue, free up space. All in the name of discovering the ever-evolving YOU.

you are in the middle of some seriously swampy times.
If life is particularity challenging for
you right now, this is a special self-love pep talk for you.
You won’t be told to “think positive” in
this episode. But there is good news. In this episode, Danette shares 3 things
to remember while navigating challenge. Including this: the only constant is
change.
