W. Marshall, In-House Counsel

Danielle has been essential to extending my mindfulness practices. As an attorney and a mom, I can quickly become overwhelmed by all the demands on me through my day. Danielle introduced me to sound frequencies and other meditation practices that help me calm my mind and refocus. Danielle’s passion for her works radiates and results in top tier customer service!

N. McClain, Senior Counsel

I recently had an opportunity to participate in a mindfulness session with Danielle and it was truly transformative. Danielle creates a calm environment and has a very compassionate demeanor that immediately puts you at ease. Danielle weaved in mindfulness techniques, which allowed me to immerse myself in the experience. She was able to build a connection and then encourage self exploration which I hope will lead to future growth. I would recommend her presentations to anyone looking to cultivate greater awareness, clarity, and calm in their lives. L.L. In-House Counsel
