In this episode of The Growth Now Movement, I sit down with coach, CEO, author, keynote speaker, and podcast host Danielle Amos to talk about breaking free from hustle culture and redefining success through joy, flow, mindset, and self-image transformation.
Danielle shares how she once believed that hard work, long hours, and constant pressure were the only path to financial success and fulfillment. Like so many entrepreneurs, she was chasing achievement while sacrificing peace, presence, and family connection. It wasn't until burnout and strain at home forced her to reevaluate everything that she realized something had to change.
After mentorship from Bob Proctor and deep study of universal laws, subconscious reprogramming, and self-image psychology, Danielle shifted her entire approach to business and life. Instead of pushing harder, she focused on becoming internally aligned. The result? She tripled her income in six months after being $100,000 in debt.
We talk about what it really means to balance masculine structure with feminine intuition, how to build white space into your calendar for creativity and clarity, and why your internal world determines your external results.
Danielle breaks down practical tools like autosuggestion, subconscious belief rewiring, journaling, breathwork, meditation, and intentional calendar boundaries. She shares how she schedules non-negotiable time with her daughter and why protecting that space actually increased her income instead of hurting it.
We also dive into her upcoming Momentum: Self-Image Edition event near Toronto on April 15, a three-floor immersive experience designed to activate growth, masterminding, leadership, and wealth consciousness.
This episode is about more than business strategy. It is about identity. It is about shifting from hustle and burnout to alignment and abundance. It is about understanding that success is not about grinding harder but about becoming the version of you who naturally attracts what you desire.
If you are an entrepreneur, leader, or high achiever who feels exhausted from pushing, this conversation will change how you think about success.
• Why hustle culture often leads to burnout instead of fulfillment
• How balancing masculine structure with feminine intuition creates flow

• Why scheduling non-negotiables with family can actually grow your business
• What success truly means beyond money
When I was told that my outside world, my results were a reflection of my inside world, that blew my mind.
What is the secret to unlocking your full potential?
What makes your idols any different than you?
How do you become the person you've always wanted to be in life?
This is where you get all of your questions answered.
My name is Justin Shank and I sit down with some of the most epic individuals who are changing the world with their actions in business and in life.
We discuss how they did it, why they pushed themselves, and more importantly, how they were able to focus on continuous growth to achieve their dreams.
Welcome to the Growth Now Movement.
Danielle, what's the show?
Thank you. I'm so glad to be here. Thanks, Justin.
Yeah, we've been chatting. I've got to hit record. We've got to get some of this content on the air for everybody to listen to you, but really excited to hear more about who you are, what you're doing for the world.
We talked a little bit before I hit record, but why don't we start with who is Danielle today, and then we'll break down how you got there.
Great, so I've been thinking about this question. I have to be honest because I heard you ask it.
Danielle, today, well, I've been a coach for 10 years and the way that I show up today is very different than when I first started.
I definitely was a hustler back then, and now I'm more in joy and flow and that feminine energy. I'm also a mom, so my priorities are very much like, and my belief system is that I get to have it all.
Who I am today is a CEO and entrepreneur. I'm a podcast host. I'm an author. I'm a keynote speaker, and I teach all around mindset, money, self-image, and universal law.
So I studied with Bob Proctor, and I see myself as a protégé, and all of that, and then I'm a two beautiful 15 year old.
I love it. I love it. So we have a 15 year old in our house as well. He's a boy, and then we have a 12 year old who's a girl, and parenting is the hardest. I'm a stepparent, and parenting is the hardest thing I've ever had to do, for sure.
And so when you talk about, hey, I was a hustler, right? I had the hustle culture. When was the shift for you? When did you realize that I didn't have to be grinding all the time?
Yeah, well, I would say that I built my career. So before I was a coach, I was a consultant, so very similar, and I built that career in the beginning of coaching hustling because I didn't know many different.
I was programmed like a lot of us to believe that success was the result of hard work, and I wore hard work like a badge of honor.
If you know, and I was telling you I used to plan a food festival, I actually would be the last person standing with my dad cleaning up garbage at 2 a.m. after the food festival, and it was like, I'm so proud that like I'm here, you know, and I carried that in to my career as a coach, and that worked so far until I felt like I was going to burn out.
And I really saw the impact on my family. So I became a not great mom, wife. I snapped at my little girl when she was cleaning up her room, and she was like two years old, you know.
And so I started reflecting on the person that I had become, and it didn't work. And my mentor, I worked very closely with Bob Proctor, and he would say to me, he's like, when I first met him, he said, you're always not working. Why not try mine? And he's like, your results show the truth of your understanding. And right now your understanding is that that hard work, it leads to success. But what if that isn't true? What if there's a way to work smarter when you leverage?
Universal laws, your mindset, and your internal system. And so I was very open. Like I was so like I want to say like broken and not happy in my life that I didn't feel like I had a choice, but to listen to what he had to say because he had results. And I, and it was at that point that I started taking responsibility for what was going on inside my mind.
And then trying his methodologies and noticing, wait a minute, I can work less, be more intentional with my inside world. I'm sure we'll get into the what that actually means, but.
And then my results are actually better than when I was just running on the hamster wheel. So I would say about like about that 10 year mark 10 years ago.
Yeah. So what does your day look like now versus then? Like how do you know when to shut it down? When to focus on being a mom? When to do all those things? Because I think sometimes when we are that entrepreneurial program of hustle, hustle, hustle, and we go all the time, we actually, first of all, most people aren't self aware enough to even reflect back and go, hey, I'm working too much.
But the second piece is like, how do we know when to shut it down? And how can we remove ourselves from that in order to focus on the more important things?
Yeah, great question. Well, my calendar, like I have integrity with my calendar, my calendar is everything to me. And I literally schedule everything. And if I want something to get done, it gets scheduled.
So that includes me time, my time with my daughter. And there are some things that are non negotiables that go in that calendar first. For example, in the morning, we always have breakfast together. And I always like, we make her lunch and we have time in the kitchen, no cell phones.
And that's, it's 30 minutes. I mean, mornings are busy. And it's a non-negotiable. We both know it. And then when she comes home from school, I always pick her up. And that's a choice. I'm now a mom that single, so a little bit different.
But I, that's a choice that I made to be there for her. And then we have the car ride home. And then I usually have meetings from three to five. And then we have dinner together, which is a non negotiable.
So even if she's got like an activity after school, she's in spirit club. So today she's at a game. All wait to have dinner until she gets home. And it's planned. Like we sit down. So those things go in my calendar first. And then I very rarely can move them because I keep my word. And that's a huge value in our home.
So I do what I say I'm going to do when I say I'm going to do it in the way in which is expected of me. And that's my definition of integrity. And I, and so the same thing if it says that I'm going to go to the gym at seven a.m. I go to the gym at seven.
So I've littered. I've learned and trained myself to give myself the command and follow it. Now that's a very masculine way of being. I think like you'd agree. So the structure and the calendar is so masculine. And what I've done is I have programmed into my schedule.
My schedule is like my flow time or I take Fridays off or so freedom Friday. And so then this is the time within the schedule when I follow intuition. I quiet my mind. I allow myself to follow the bliss and the joy. And that is me in the feminine. And so it's those like non negotiables, those promises to myself and my daughter that allow me to balance both.
I'm glad you talked about that as far as being in the masculine and being in the feminine and playing both sides of the coin. A lot of times people think they have to be one or the other instead of being able to balance that sort of thing.
Like when you're when you talk about being in flow state and being in your feminine power, what does that look like for you? Like how can you lock into that and begin to be in that flow because it's hard sometimes.
Like if you are that structured person, it's hard to be like, Oh, no, I'm just going to allow myself to flow. What does it look like for you?
Yeah, well, I had to get used to that and sit through the uncomfortable pieces. And especially if I am go, go, go, you know, like moving from lot more logical task into that in the afternoon.
I'll usually need to go for a walk online breathwork, do meditation to get me outside of the hustle and more in the body so I can feel like I can hear my intuition. So I know what to follow.
And I could it space like it's quiet in space so that we can hear that that voice inside and the willingness to like fidget a little like I feel like I should be doing something I feel like I need to be doing something.
It's like, no, this is actually what it's designed for. And there's a book called you squared the author's price pritchard and he has another book called the quantum quantum leap, I think.
And it's in that he talks about white space and the need to create that white space and what happens as a result. And so that's that's where that comes from.
Yeah.
So.
Yeah, no, it's in a lot of a lot of people have a hard time with that. Like I think back for even if it's big feelings, right?
Like I remember after my mom passed away, so she lost her battered opioids after 20 years and she passed away. And I went on a six month or three month bender where I was blackout drunk six nights a week.
And I had a coach at the time who called me one day and she was like, hey, what are you doing tonight? And I was like, I'm going out with some friends. And she goes, now you're going to sit and you're going to feel this shit, right?
And it was the first time I allowed myself to feel it. But it was necessary, like how much better I felt the next day. Now if this is a practice you're doing regularly, like that such a powerful tool to be grounded in everything that you're doing, I imagine.
Yeah, it carries over in other places. And I can all I also now have tools that help me like regulate and calm down and let me feel and let me be present.
And those developed over time. And as I found things that worked for me, whether it was breath worker meditation, sometimes it's journaling.
I like literally put them on my tool belt and not always does the same tool work every time. So sometimes I've got to go through a few things to then slow down my ventries to say slow down to speed up.
So if more you can slow down, this is also the same in your speech even it's like we then create the we then have the ability to hear that intuition and and when that intuition speaking, it's really.
And when you pray you're speaking to God and that intuition is God speaking to you or you're higher self speaking to you and that's where the magic is that's where you're going to get ideas that are going to create a quantum leap. And so it's so important to figure out how to do this for yourself and regulate yourself and ground yourself, like you said.
Yeah, you were talking earlier and I forget the phrase that you talked about your internal internal something or your internal regulations or I don't remember what you called it, but I want to dive into that a little bit because obviously it was a big piece to you because you're like, hey, I need to go back there.
What does that mean? What does it look like to walk us through that?
Yeah, so I had to pay attention to what was actually happening inside my mind.
I didn't know that it mattered to be honest, like 10 years ago, and when I was in corporate, I just did the job.
So I did the work. So it was do do do I paid no attention to my attitude. So the thoughts that I was thinking the way that I was feeling about the work.
I paid no attention to how what the way that I was speaking to myself or my own set what I call yourself image or your identity while I was doing the work, I paid no attention to the intentions that I even had.
I just assumed that I was intending to succeed.
So when I was told that my outside world, my results were a reflection of my inside world, that like blew my mind.
That was like someone like totally took my perception of the world and flipped it upside down, which is what Bob Proctor did.
I'm like, wait, no, wait a minute. That's not true. I was like my result, like, and I was in network marketing as my side hustle at the time. And I was like, no, it's because the economy sucks.
Like people don't want to spend this much on skincare. And it's because my husband doesn't believe in the industry. And I had all of these reasons that were outside of me.
And they were very good reasons and I could justify them. But they were not the real reasons as to why I was getting my results. But I had no, like, honestly, I had no idea.
So when I first heard that and I'm like, okay, wait a minute, if this is true, I've got to pay attention to what's going on. And what I realized, if you would have asked me or asked anyone around me, was Danielle confident?
Absolutely. I was speaking for my corporate job. I was like, see level very high up. And they assumed I was confident because on the outside, I presented.
But if you were like a doctor that could open up my head and look at the thoughts and dissect what was actually going on, I was an asshole to myself.
I had a poor self image. I was so hard on myself. Nothing I did was ever good enough.
Before I went on stage, I was like, do you really deserve this? Do you really know what you're like? Everything I questioned.
And that was ultimately giving my results. And at that time in my side hustle, my results weren't very good. And I actually was at $100,000 in debt. I didn't mention this.
But 10 years ago when I found this material, I was miserable. I'd quit my corporate job to focus on my side hustle.
I thought I just needed more time. I put myself in a ton of debt and drank all the time because I was so stressed about money.
And I was not nice to myself. And so, but I had no idea that it mattered what was going on in there until I did.
So how do you begin to rewire that? Like you said, you weren't even aware of how you were talking to yourself because you did have external success.
You were being asked to speak at these events. You were a C-suite person. How do you begin to even have that inner dialogue change if you're not even aware of it?
Yeah, well, I think first step is to become aware. So, you know, a person might be listening to this podcast thinking, okay, wait a minute.
If this is true, my outside world is a reflection of my inside. Let's pay attention. And what are my results?
So I think that's the first place. It's like, wait a minute. Let's look at all areas of my life. My finances, my relationships, my health.
And each one of those areas, the starting point is your mind.
So let's look at the results and let's not be a victim to anything outside of you. Let's not be a victim to circumstance.
And let's take full radical responsibility. Step number one.
Step number two would be like, okay, so let's work backwards. These are the results. So what's going on inside and then pay attention.
So for me, I had to slow down to realize, and I loved journaling. Like I would get out a pen and paper and spit on paper, like literally, like, dump what was in there.
Yeah, it was shocking, like, to put my real true feelings down on paper. And I wouldn't want anyone to read them because it was so embarrassing. It was so negative.
Well, of course, then my results in that area specifically around network marketing were so negative and my bank account were so negative because this is the root cause.
And so then once you can see it, you take inventory and then it's the fun game of being conscious so that you can choose a different thought.
And then there's different tools that you can use to reprogram your subconscious mind. And this is a big part of the work that I learned from Bob Proctor.
But if you know of the book, think and grow rich by Napoleon Hill, he's got a chapter on this exact topic called auto suggestion, which is actually brilliant.
It's how you reprogram your mind through repetition and feeling with new belief systems that support your goal achieved. And that's exactly what I did. And within six months, Justin, I tripled my income.
Wow. That's incredible. So where, where did you begin? Like, what was the first thing you're like, okay, this is clearly a big problem. I need to start reprogramming. And then what, how did you switch the narrative?
Yeah. So I identified that the prop, the big thing right then, like my biggest heartache or my biggest problem, which I think you want to focus on that. The low hanging fruit was my bank account. So as 100K in debt, I'd quit my job.
I was expecting my network marketing side hustle to replace my corporate income. It didn't. And so I really had to take a look at how I was thinking about money and how I was thinking about myself.
As a leader in that network marketing business. So rather than saying, well, it's just the economy. That's why people aren't buying from me. No, or what is it that I believe about me that are not that's not attracting the people that I'd like to come on the team or be customers.
And the money and also the beliefs about the product and beliefs about money itself, like it was expensive and money's hard to earn. And so I isolated those took inventory and then asked myself, does it serve me to believe this? Yes or no?
And made it really black or white and literally took like highlighters, two colors, stroked out the ones I wanted to keep the beliefs I wanted to keep that served me and exed out the ones that I didn't and started replacing the ones that I didn't want to believe like who wants to believe money's hard to earn.
You're going to get what you believe it doesn't work. So could I then replace that with a belief like what if money is easy? What if there's opportunities everywhere, like could I get behind that.
And so I started playing with these new belief system, like what's it going to take for me to believe this? Opportunities are everywhere. What is easy? Do I have any evidence of that?
And then what's funny is how the mind works is like evidence started popping up like I overhear conversations. Maybe you and I were having conversation and you might even say like, I can't believe how easy it is to sell these summit tickets.
You wouldn't believe how easy it is and I'm like, oh my gosh, there's there's a piece of evidence. It gets to be easy.
And that started happening more and more and more and more and the more evidence, the more belief, the more faith and the more repetition, the more it shows up.
I love it. And so you are, you know, you help women all over, you know, with this image, with this work, with that kind of type of thing. What does that look like when these women come to you and go, I'm a little lost. Like I need your help. Like what is, what does the process look like?
So first of all, they come up, come to me in a similar state that I was where they're overworked. They know that they're made for more, but they can't imagine working any harder.
And usually they're very logical like I was as well, like in corporate. And so we start by first creating a vision for their life that they'd like to live.
And getting that on paper. And for most of most people, they don't know what they really want. Like they're so limited by logic or by their past that this first step in getting into their imagination and fantasy is a huge, a huge deal and it takes some time.
A lot of times, especially women, we think it's like either family or career, like you can't both. So I give them permission to dream. I give them permission to build the picture of what it looks like to be this and that to have it all really on their terms.
And that's the first step. And then from from there, we've got to identify those beliefs similar to what I was explaining that are not allowing them at this point to live that life so that they can then get in harmony with the life that they want.
Yeah, you know, it's funny that you just talked about with women. You feel like you could family or career, right? I just somebody my mastermind just sent me this thing from Instagram. And it was like four burners on a stove, right?
So it was like wealth, health, family, fear what the last one was. But how essentially like if you want to be ultra successful and one of them, you can't have all four burners on.
And then they use Bezos as an example, like, hey, obviously his his work was always turned up, but then he turned up his fitness. That's when he became Jack that I know it looks like a different person. So he lost his wife, right?
I ended up getting a divorce. And so all these things, but I look at it as a sense of like in seasons, right? Like there's going to be a season where you're focusing on your business, a season where you're focusing on your health season.
And those seasons, by the way, can shift throughout the day, the timing, the whatever. Like how do you manage that? Because like you said, like these women go, hey, I'm a career woman.
You know, my kids know I love them. Like that happens a lot, right? Like how can you have that conversation and balance that?
Well, first of all, I love that you said seasons because I was going to bring this up earlier when you asked me how I managed, you know, being a mom and having a career.
And there are seasons throughout the day to your point and then actual seasons in our career where there's like a springtime where it might be a little less heavy. And then there's fall, which is harvest. And it's like you're in the fields all the time.
You know, so understanding that law of rhythm is really important. But with with women, the first.
And it's interesting like you say about that post because that post is confirming the programming that we're given by society, by the media, by movies, that it's this or that that you can't have both.
And I'm such a firm believer that that's not true, that that is just simply a programming that we have from society.
And if we believe it, of course, we're going to find evidence to support that belief. Like, oh, well, look at what happened to Jeff Bezos. He focuses on his career and he gets a divorce.
He has a divorce, of course, because it's this or that. But like, no, let's start looking for evidence of the person who does have it all that has a successful marriage and a successful career.
And then and so for each individual, it's important that you build the picture. So take your pen to paper and say things like right the top in a universe where anything is possible.
What does it look like specifically for me to have it all in my family and career and let's not take anything from your past experience or precedent or what you see in the news, say no, this is my model I'm building.
So it might mean like what I was explaining earlier, I work between maybe it's 10 and two. I have no idea how at this point how I'm going to get all my work done between 10 and two and it's my desire.
And so if I can see it and by law, the law thinking says if I can see it in my mind, I can hold it in my hand. So it's my job to see it on paper to see it in my mind and don't worry about the how right now it's the what.
So I like to like my dream is to work 10 to two and I have Fridays off. That's what I've created for myself. I have Fridays completely off.
And so then what starts to happen is you build this picture and then it's about the who not how so who the who are the who do you have to become to live out and fulfill that vision.
And then who do you need in your life for support to fulfill that vision. So it might mean that you need an assistant. You might mean an integrator and executor in your business.
You might need support at home, a house cleaner, a chef.
And it will start to come together, but not if you're doing it based on ways that you've always done it. You're building a new model and you've got to be willing to to do that. Is that resume?
Yeah, no, I love it. So it's so funny hearing all of this stuff because I there's actually somewhere out in the ether. I was a guest on a podcast probably nine years ago, right when I was a broke entrepreneur trying to figure it out.
And I literally said on the show I go, they're like, what's the one thing you wish you were told about entrepreneurship? And I was like, that is really hard to make money.
I literally said this on a podcast nine years ago. And now I say all the time, like money chases me. Like people are literally like, hey, can I pay you? Like, let me pay you. Hey, I want to pay you.
Like, this is really odd thing. And so I then thought about how I was the hustle guy, right? Sun up to sundown. I'd be at my computer. The only time I would leave was to go grab dinner with a friend and I'd come back and be right back at the computer until 11 o'clock at night. And then I'd go to bed and wake up and do it all over again.
And I was broke while doing it because I told myself, this is what it is. Like the entrepreneurship is hard and you're supposed to struggle.
And then began to kind of reprogram all that stuff. I now work three to four hours a day. I don't work on Fridays. I make more money than I've ever made before.
Even in my busy season, which we're leading up to my event now, which we were talking about in your events coming up as well, which I want to cover.
But building up to my event, right, we're in the busy season. My family and I are going to on a trip to Disney for a week, two weeks before the event.
Because this is the life I've created, right? Like this is what we want our lives to look like and we step into it.
But a lot of people, like you said, don't think it's possible. I said one time, just in passing, I didn't think it was a big deal. I was speaking at an event.
And I was like, yeah, I worked three to four hours a week. Nobody listened to the rest of my talk. They were just like, what's going on?
How is that possible? Like, blah, blah. And that's all they asked me about after my talk. And I was like, that wasn't the point of my talk.
But I'm glad that hit home so hard, right? Because again, it is sitting down and going, how is how can I make this possible versus like, though it's impossible?
And I love that you walk people through that because it's such a powerful thing, because we only have one life.
And it might as well be the life that you want to live. And I imagine that's that's the end conversation you have with every single person you work with.
Yeah. And it tries me crazy to watch people settle.
Like to settle because they think they believe there's no other way. I'm like, do you want that? Do you want what you're doing right now?
Do you want to spend the hours like that? No, I want to go to Disney with my kids. All right. That's okay.
And I laughed when you said that because I've actually taken my daughter to Costa Rica for 10 days right before.
And I can see my team are like, you're doing what when like I'm like, yeah, because this is what we teach and we get to have it all.
I don't know what's going to work out is going to work out why because I can see the event filled.
And I can see myself Costa Rica. Yeah. So it's happening.
I love it. I love it. So tell us a little bit about your events. You told me the breakdown of it. And like, I think we do live in a world now where events need to be experiences.
They need to be a little bit different than other things and you you're clearly creating an experience for the women who are going to be there.
Tell us about this event you're creating.
Yeah. Thanks, Justin. So it's April 15th, right? When you're this will be in it together. I'll be thinking about you.
And it's just outside of Toronto and Canada. And it is called momentum. And this is a self-imaging addition.
So the idea is that the woman comes into the event one version of her and she leaves her next level goal achieve version.
And the way that will achieve that is through an event that has three floors. So we rent an old spice factory on the top floor will be speakers and panelists and really incredible women who have achieved success in different areas.
So from different different careers that will be examples, but then also they will be sharing the tools that they use. So very much applicable.
So the women can add these tools to their tool belt. Let's say the second floor is about brainstorming master minding and collaboration.
So on purpose, this floor is to break down the competition that often women feel and I want to say like almost force them into the collaboration and it's curated so that they are meeting like minded women that can actually support them on their journey and hold them accountable to that next level self.
So that is all like there's exercises do that. And then the first floor is our experience and activation floor. And they'll be periods throughout the event three periods where the women will book themselves into if you see it as like a booth or a section of the floor where they go in and they have an experience with an expert.
So for example, we have a makeup artist or several that are coming in and will do a consult or actually make up with the women we have someone working with women on posture on voice activation on nervous system regulation.
There's a stylist. There's actually a whole place where there's clothes where women are trying on for their body type. There's a photographer a coach helping them stand a certain way to get their picture taken videographer all all these different experience and then there's products as well on that floor.
So the idea there is like it's very much hands on and and they'll move through that floor. And so it's the combination of all three that meets our goal that they'll leave a different version of themselves.
I love it. And so where can people go we'll do this now where can people go to find out more information grab tickets all that fun stuff.
Yeah, the best place is my Instagram and it's at the Danielle Amos and there's a you know link in the bio like there always is.
It's it's in there. Just go click it and go and go find your way there which which I love. So I want to ask you question ask every single person on the show. It's a two part question.
The first part is what is your definition of success and the second part is what are three things you do every single day to ensure that success for yourself.
Oh, I love this. Okay. So my definition of success is success is the progress of realization of a worthy ideal. It's a quote that's from Earl Nightingale.
And so that means that as long as you're moving in the direction to a worthy ideal or your vision or your goal, then you are successful.
Second, three things I do every single day, which I actually just opposed to my community about this because I've been sick. And so it meant that my best has looked different as I've been returning to health.
And so I've been not doing the things that I love to do at the same time and I really felt the impact. And today was the first day that I woke up at five thirty before my alarm and was like in my study. So the first thing I do every single day is I like to wake up just before six and it's not.
It's not like a rule, but it's just like what I what time I like.
And and I get into studying actually around mindset. So I fill my mind with positive material that will give me insight or an idea to move me closer my goal.
So that's number one. Number two is gratitude. I write a list of gratitude and I make sure I feel that and I do that morning and night.
And number three is visualization. So it's a meditation that moves into a visualization practice where I see myself as the goal achieved and I get in that energy.
And then I bring that energy into the now so that I show up in my today world as that version of me my future self.
I love it. So you said that you like to wake up right before six. Do you set an alarm?
I have been and I don't love to. So I just I did yesterday, but I will hurt sorry today, but I woke up before and the reason why I don't love to is because I also want to trust my body that if I need to sleep more I will.
And I will definitely hear my daughters will learn by seven thirty, but I did today because I for ten days I was quite out like out of it.
And so I noticed when I get myself out of the habit, I don't as easily jump out of bed. And so I did it as a backup today, but I didn't need it.
I love it. We have to we have to sit alarms in our house. Kids have to wake away earlier than our bodies would wake us up.
But I was curious because we said the alarm for five fifty three.
Yeah.
And I know that's really weird. I set all my alarms on the threes because it tricks my brain that I'm not waking up to an alarm.
I don't know. I've done it for twenty years. So I was like, oh my gosh, she does something as weird as we do like with the five fifty threes that would have been wild.
I do five fifty five because I like to eat your lovers. Yeah. So kind of do very, very similar, very, very similar. I love it.
So I want I want you to fast forward in your life. And I want you to picture this. You've long to you've lived a long, wonderful life. And I hope this is happening very far from now.
But I want you to imagine that everything you've created has disappeared. Anything that you've written recorded taught all those things. And you can only be remembered for one sentence. What would you want that sentence to be?
Expect abundance, not really a sentence, but yeah, always expect abundance because you get what you expect or believe.
I love it. I love it. So I wrap up every single interview with the same question.
We already did the context of is there anything else you want to add? Normally this is the time where I'm like, hey, where can people find you, but we already did that. So what is there anything else you want to add?
Oh, this has been such a great opportunity. So thank you, Justin, for the work that you do. And for having this podcast for 10 years.
And yeah, I was a young man. I was a young man when I started. And like, it's so funny to like look back. And I have a, you can't really tell in the zoom, but I have a ton of gray hairs now. And you know, I was a 31 year old bachelor.
I thought I'd be a bachelor forever. And now I'm a stepdad with gray hair. And it's just kind of wild. And this is the only thing that's probably been consistent in my life, right?
It's my wife is my second longest relationship of all time. The podcast is the first longest relationship of all time.
So I love it. But like I said, I wrap up every single interview with the same question that is in your life. What has been your biggest moment of growth?
The biggest moment of growth. I'm going to use a recent example. And that would be going through my divorce and separation and shedding the identity of that I created inside that relationship.
And who and deciding who I am as a mom that is now single. And you'll notice I use the words for a specific reason in that order.
And I've had to grow so much. Well, as a CEO, as a business person, absolutely, in my identity, but most importantly, like how I run the home now and my relationship with my daughter and it's and being willing to be confronted and asked a lot of questions and to speak with integrity and love.
And to find forgiveness in that space, it's stretch me and it's been happening for a couple of years. So it's not a new thing, but it's stretched me beyond what I even thought I was capable of holding to be honest.
Awesome. Danielle, thank you so much for coming on and sharing your wisdom with my audience. And most importantly, thank you so much for the work that you do. It's insanely important. And so thank you for showing up being you and continue to do the work.
