Summary

Kundalini teacher, spiritual coach, comedian, speaker, all-round entrepreneurial superstar… Danielle Mercurio is a gypsy of all trades, she is living her truth.

It wasn’t always that way. As a child she dreamed of being a performer, but it felt out of reach. Ok for others, but not for her. Instead, she tried to do what she was supposed to do. How many of us do exactly that - work a job because we think it’s what we’re meant to? That kind of living catches up with you. After years of partying to escape the fact she wasn’t being true to herself, and too many mornings waking up not knowing what happened the night before, Danielle had a spiritual awakening. She saw that the mess of her life was an opportunity to explore what was on the other side.

It wasn’t a smooth ride. Self-love was way off, too difficult to reach. So Danielle designed strategies to get to self-ok, where she could simply show up for her life. That ok-ness soon became liking herself, and with the help of Kundalini yoga, and Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Masterclass (she was one of the first people to sign up, ever), she was able to completely surrender to the flow and abundance of the universe, and find her path. She gave herself permission to get out of her corporate job and into the life she really wanted: spiritual entrepreneur, life coach, self-help comedian, speaker and podcaster.

Does this resonate with you? So many of us have that feeling inside that we’re not doing what we are truly supposed to. We have all these great ideas, but because we seek validation from external sources, we never give ourselves that go-ahead to take action. But the fact you’re here today, and feeling that desire to set up a food business or do life coaching or become a spiritual entrepreneur, that is the universe giving you permission.

And right now, there is no better time to go for it. You do not need external permission to start a YouTube channel, or a podcast, or a blog, or to start that spiritual business. If you have a passion, if it feels like your current job is standing in the way of your ideal life, and it is becoming irresponsible not to follow your dreams, then you owe it to yourself (and the world) to take steps towards your living your highest purpose.

The most important step you can take is checking out Gabby Bernstein’s latest video, where she shares a special invitation, a shout-out to all those who want to inspire others by doing what inspires them.
