I did a survey a few weeks ago about how I could be of service, and asked how people are doing emotionally and financially right now. I read the replies and smiled and cried a bit.
What we need: support that feels grounding, practical, compassionate, and usable in real life—not more pressure or another complicated self-improvement system.
People miss the WITH LOVE, DANIELLE podcast. (It’s on hiatus—coming back in 2027!)
You listen while driving, walking, working, or doing everyday things. You want to come back when you need it.
There’s interest in monthly audiobooks. Wait till you hear what I’ve got for you!
We all want LESS complexity, not more.
A qualitative theme is content overwhelm:
overwhelmed by too many choices
tired of apps, social media and other online programs
reluctant to log into another platform
unable to keep up with memberships
wanting simple practices to pick up and put down
You want fewer, better, more meaningful ways to connect. Me too!
Financial pressure is a reality
71% have cut way back on personal-development spending.
24% are spending about the same
5% are investing more in personal development.
People mentioned:
inflation
exchange rates
discretionary spending being squeezed
having to choose between books, courses, therapy, retreats, etc.
waiting until their finances improve
What people have come to expect from me (thank you…I feel useful and seen…)
“calming, grounding, and intimate.”
“honesty….not someone pretending to have everything figured out.”
“lack of fluff.”
“Discerning perspective on current events.”
“Practical spirituality and tools”
“Depth…not watered-down spirituality.”
“Consistency.”
You want practical spiritual perspective + tools around:
emotional pain
fear
transitions
grounding
centering
resilience
letting go
living through difficult times
I read responses like the last chapter of a mystery novel. I AM SO APPRECIATIVE. Thank you. My team and I feel equipped to really be of service. Everything is shifting now. The world. The online space. The economy…
I’m feeling devoted and innovative. Grounded. Powerful. Grateful. With all the clearing and cleansing I’ve experienced this year, there’s a lot of light and insight pouring into my life. And I’m going to package it up in ways that are easy to access.
More to come… but not more overwhelm.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
With Love,

My beloved friend, Christine Hassler and her hot hubs, Stef are offering a 3 month program, called Be The Queen—for the woman who knows what she wants in love but hasn’t found it yet.
Christine is a spiritual psychologist and master level coach. She’s helped me fly in all things romance and relationships. She was at my wedding, and on speed dial during divorce. She is reminding me now of what’s possible in my next relationship. She is a real deal, psyche-informed guide. Stef is a wise, good man whom I also love and adore. I trust they can hold space for your unfolding. I recommend this with all my heart.
