Ep. 29 - Conversations on Death, Healing, and Self-Love with Guest Danielle Petro

I'm so grateful that my dear friend, Danielle Petro joining me on the podcast to share her story of losing her best friend and how she's finding purpose through her death, while honoring the grief that comes with such a large loss. ⁠Meet Danielle: Danielle is currently reinventing herself. She is living in the liminal space between what was and what is to become. After 20 years in the health and wellness industry serving her clients as a medical aesthetician, she made the brave choice to honor the whispers of her soul and say goodbye to a beautiful career. This decision was not easy, in fact it was agonizing. What once was her passion, was no longer. She is honoring her decision to take the leap of faith, stepping fully into the unknown and into the truest version of herself. Danielle is a healer, a mother, an alchemist, wisdom seeker and intuitive. She has a deep desire to help others step into their own power, create magic and allow for seamless transformations of their own.
