Key Takeaways from my chat with Danielle:
- The thing Danielle is most curious about outside of the scope of her work: She loves to travel
- The impact Danielle is making with her work and the inspiration behind getting involved with it: She started in Corporate America and enjoyed helping her team members create career goals and put together career plans. When she left, she started mentoring people on the side. She eventually had a recruiter tell her to “stop looking for a job and go be a career coach”.
- A pivotal shift in Danielle‘s career move and the lesson she learned: Early on in her career, she gained momentum very quickly but then hit a plateau. As she was feeling down about it, a former boss suggested to Danielle to create some space to learn and grow while trying new things. Learning this lesson has opened up additional opportunities for Danielle.
- How the last 18 months have shifted Danielle’s perspective in how she positions her brand: She has been fortunate to do many virtual presentations, as well as, build relationships with other podcast hosts. Being able to work virtually, she is fortunate that she can do her work, then be at home with her husband and kids.
- The upcoming projects Danielle is most excited about: She has got some new virtual keynote presentations scheduled and will be launching a new sales coaching program at the beginning of 2022. She also partners with some local nonprofit organizations that are dedicated to helping women uplevel their career paths.
- A habit that Danielle implements on a daily basis: She is a big fan of morning routines and setting daily intentions.
- Book recommendations: “Start with Why” by Simon Sinek. She also has a list of her top 25 books that Danielle recommends to uplevel your leadership skills that can be found on her website.
