Whether you call it your gut feeling, hunch, or intuition. This incredible part of our true selves is a tool we can use to live lives that are free, fulfilling and deeply meaningful. In the West, we have been conditioned not to listen to our intuition and spend too much time in our logical brains. This can lead to confusion, frustration and reduce us to settling for lives that are shallow, small and lack meaning. You can learn to balance and connect the logic and intuition when you are more connected with your intuition. In this episode, I will talk about steps you can take to balance and connect your logical mind and your intuition to make meaningful decisions that are in line with your own way of living, thinking and to create your best life. I am here to tell you to trust your inner guidance. I know it can be difficult to determine if a decision is based on your intuition or your fear. Intuition is expansive, open, exciting and even when you are on the edge of your comfort zone you will still feel a pull towards something. Fear is a pressure that feels like pushing or a contraction which can lead your anxiety to peak. Your intuition has always been a part of you, you are born with it, but as you grow up you are influenced by society which buries your intuition under logic and other people's definition of how you should live your life. Reconnecting with it may be one of the biggest leaps you take to lead your fullest freest life. I don't want you to end up in a rocking chair at 80 years old regretting not taking the leap and following your intuition. Create the space and time to listen to your body now to live your most fulfilling and meaningful life.

I turned 34 recently and I felt unclear on what I should settle my intentions on this year. After reflection and seeing signs in my connection to the universe in fireflies, I decided that this chapter of my life isn't about becoming anything more right now - it is about sharing what I have become. In this episode, I share the moments in my life that have shaped my journey in becoming the person that I am now. I discuss the “c-word” (Covid-19) and how it has connected everybody in the world through experience and a joint consciousness. I will encourage you to declare that you will stop being distracted by the bullshit of another person's rhetoric and stand for your right to lead a life of fulfillment. I will lead you through a declaration for the dreamers that will empower you to feel the connection to something bigger than yourself and will ground you in belief rather than battling despair. Shake up the mediocre! Deepen your self knowing and your self-trust to discern your foundation of resilience and resourcefulness. It is my 34th birthday wish for the dreamers to declare what they stand for. I encourage you to be still and listen to this declaration for the dreamers.

You do not have to live your life squashed into one box and feeling disconnected to your true self. You are a multifaceted person that has many different passions and skills that will make you feel inspired, excited and will lead you to thriving in the world. This episode is all about breaking the misconception that you have to pick one label, choose one passion, practice one skill, and spend your life inside that one box. I talk about how society has been set up to include a one-size-fits-all approach to careers and businesses, but that way of life creates disconnection and disempowerment. You can create your own way of living that incorporates all of your passions, skills, ideas and unique quirks that will allow you to fully express and free yourself from all of the rules that restrict you in this world. I know this sounds challenging! I will give you the practical skills to start really thinking about your whole magical being and how to embrace a multi-passionate life.

Let's talk about money. If this topic makes you cringe, scared or feel unempowered, this is the episode for you. I want to see money in the hands of people who give a shit about making an impact in the world. But first, we need to shake up those limiting beliefs and stories around money. This episode is all about graduating from the backpacker mentality and transitioning into your right to be a boujee bitch. I talk about my journey in challenging my relationship with money, how I dismantled my money stories and stepped into freedom to make, spend and keep money from an empowered position. If money was a person in your life, what does that relationship look like? Is there tension and friction in your dynamic? Or are you in flow? Links: My Website: www.danielleknight.com
I come across so many people with brilliant ideas and dreams ready to burst out of them. What breaks my heart is when a lot of them become stuck in their circumstances because they can't see how those dreams could possibly become reality. Self doubt and fear are very real threats to us having the lives we dream of and to us being who we're really here to be. In this episode I talk about wrestling with fear and doubt and how my business has been the biggest spiritual journey for me, impacting me on a very deep level. I had to get out of my own way, I had to ask the bigger questions, trust myself, and not allow fear to keep me stifled. Fear and self doubt have the potential to keep you bound or to be the catalyst for real breakthrough into the most fulfilled version of yourself. Links: My Website: www.danielleknight.com
I love that so many people in the world today are looking for different ways of being that let them embody their truest self but I want to look at the ways personal development can trap us in cycles that don't benefit us. It can be easy to get caught up in the excitement of building towards something and taking in new information to the point we don't give ourselves time to actually make changes and process things. If you're go go go with a hundred different podcasts, programs, or books but you're struggling to actually see results - you might be stuck in a self help suckhole. I can definitely relate to this feeling so I want to share my experience and how I got out. Links: My Website: www.danielleknight.com
I am incredibly lucky to be able to connect with so many like-minded, creative dreamers but I recently caught myself thinking “if I could only share one thing what would it be?” - and the answer is simply self-trust. Self-trust is the thing that gets us through hard times and helps us navigate the unknown. It creates a sense of security and safety in ourselves that can't be shaken or shattered no matter what happens in the world. When we act from a place of self-knowing, things may be messy but they will always work out. Today I want to share with you some of the times I've made gigantic leaps and how my self-trust led me to a safe landing. I hope these experiences can inspire you to hold faith in yourself the next time things get scary. Links: My Website: www.danielleknight.com/

Even though she was living a life she had always dreamed of Danielle was suffering from burn out and didn’t even know it. There’s a frantic energy as the pace of our lives seem to be picking up , getting faster and more full.
