Nuanced Grief, with Nora McInerny Sep 01, 2021

Grief is complicated. And just because your grief doesn’t meet some trivial standard of what society thinks is grievable, doesn’t make it any less real. On this episode, Ms. Danielle talks with friend, author, TED Talker, podcast host and professional griever (which is a sleek way of saying someone who has experienced a lot of hard things in life) Nora McInerny about nuanced grief and what we are “allowed” to grieve.

Call Me Out, Call Me In (feat. Conscious Lee) Aug 25, 2021

When Conscious Lee was on a few episodes ago, he said we should shift from a society promoting cancel culture to a society promoting call-out culture. We should highlight the wrongdoing or missteps, but not write off the person entirely for that. Which got us thinking, how do we go from calling them out to them holding themselves accountable. This week, Danielle expands on accountability and call-in culture. Plus, we saved a snippet of our conversation with Conscious Lee that we wanted to share with you.

Accountability and Growth, with Conscious Lee Aug 04, 2021

People Pleasing and Toxic Positivity, with The Joy Junkie Jul 07, 2021

Why are we always trying to please the people around us – oftentimes to a degree where we put the needs of others ahead of our own? It’s exhausting.

Smith, the Joy Junkie, specializes in teaching chronic people-pleasers and perfectionists how to speak up for themselves without being assholes and she is here to help all of us.

We don’t talk to our kids enough about mental health and suicide. They are issues shrouded by stigma, and not talking about them with the young people in our lives is a major contributing factor to the statistics. Ms. Danielle sits down with mom and social worker Brittani Senser to have a conversation about youth mental health and suicide.

Black Story Month: Black Excellence Feb 24, 2021

In our final episode of Black Story Month, we asked our Black listeners, coworkers, friends and family to send in a voice memo answering three questions: 1.

This special episode is a collection of stories from all over the country — including two little girls (who call Danielle mom) learning about their own Black girl magic.

Black Story Month: "You're Pretty for a Black Girl" with Tanisha Nichole Feb 10, 2021

“Can I touch your hair?” “You don’t talk Black.” “You’re pretty for a Black girl.” These are all examples of microaggressions — nasty little comments that get said to Black women every single day and that add up to major trauma. Being a Black woman in modern America is anything but easy. This week, Ms. Danielle is joined by friend and radio personality Tanisha Nichole to talk about microaggressions, how you can recognize them, and how you can help stop them from causing harm.

How Do I Blend My Family Jan 20, 2021

What makes a family? It’s not just one mom, one dad, 2.5 kids and miscellaneous pets. And when it comes to blending families, you’re also blending their own experiences, insecurities and personalities. It’s not easy, and parents don’t always have the answers! So we asked the (now grown-up) baby of a big, blended family to help us out.

How Do I Talk to My Partner About Sex? with Shaun Galanos Jan 06, 2021

We’re going to have “the talk” — except this time, it’s the full version. We know about the birds and the bees, but when it comes to talking about what we want (and need) in the bedroom, a lot of us avoid that conversation. But you know who doesn’t? A love coach. Shaun Galanos is host of “The Love Drive,” a popular podcast about love, sex and authenticity. He also provides sessions and coaching on various aspects of love and life. This week, Shaun teaches us how to have an open and honest conversation about sex and intimacy with our partners.

Introducing Help A Human Out Aug 27, 2020

No matter what you’re going through -- a divorce, a bankruptcy -- there is someone who has walked your path, and we’re going to find them so they can help light your own way through.

That’s what this podcast is all about. Every episode, we’ll meet a person going through something nobody in their real life can relate to:

On Help A Human Out, our job is to find someone who has been there, so nobody has to feel alone in their struggle.

We’re taking difficult, confusing or isolating situations and normalizing them...one person, one problem, one podcast episode at a time. Everything that feels like uncharted territory to YOU is terrain someone else has walked before. Whatever you’re going through, we are going to talk to the people who have been there so we can help others that might currently be there. Wherever there is.
