I’m Danielle. My work is devoted to supporting others navigate the arc of life, death, and rebirth, often referred to as “the dark night of the soul.” My journey into this work began through my own personal loss. At twenty-three, while four months pregnant, I lost my partner to suicide. This tragedy shattered my sense of self and plunged me into an existential despair. In my effort to heal myself, I turned to deep spiritual inquiry.
Over the span of many years, I began to rebuild not only myself, but my relationship to loss itself. I came to see life, death, and the process of rebirth not as something to be avoided or fixed, but thresholds that ask to be witnessed, honored, and integrated.
As I began healing, I felt increasingly drawn to supporting others in their own moments of profound transition. Writing became a central way I held space for not only my journey, but how I began helping others navigate theirs. Hearing how my words helped people feel less alone not only clarified something essential for me, further leading me into my calling: presence itself is a form of care.
That realization led me into hands-on caregiver through hospice work, where I find deep alignment in being present with people and families during times of illness, dying, and deep personal change. Across all of my work, my intention remains the same: to offer grounded presence and care in moments that are tender, liminal, and soul shaping.
