Red Carpet to Red Wine: Embracing the Pivots You Never Planned for with Danielle Frank

Career pivots. Relationship pivots. The life you thought you were supposed to have — and the one that's actually waiting for you. In this episode of Piece of Work with Danielle Tantone, host Danielle Tantone sits down with author and wine industry veteran Danielle Frank for a candid conversation about resilience, reinvention, and the courage it takes to walk away from what's not working. Danielle Frank's story is the ultimate case study in pivoting with purpose: VP of International PR at Miramax at 27, she left New York for LA, quit a toxic job without a backup plan, discovered a passion for wine and spirits, and built a career spanning two decades at Bacardi and Moët Hennessy. She also called off an engagement, rethought her path to motherhood, and found — to her own surprise — that the life she has is the life she was meant for all along. In this episode you'll hear: — Why she says "when something is costing you peace, that's your answer" — How each pivot builds your confidence to take the next one — The story of Madame Clicquot, history's original female entrepreneur — A live reading from her book A Wine Lover's Guide to Parenting — a tongue-in-cheek adult children's book that pairs wine wisdom with raising kids who aren't a-holes Connect with Danielle Frank and grab her book at daniellefrankauthor.com.  WebsitePiece of Work, a MemoirInstagramFacebookTikTok
