Dani is a voracious writer, public speaker, deep thinker, mother of three, and keeper of a blossoming community garden in north Minneapolis. Formerly a home next door that was taken by a tornado, the garden is a space where everyone is welcome.
In this episode, we join Dani around her dining room table for a tasty and carefully prepared meal. While we eat, Dani shares her passion for self-exploration, journaling, and the life lessons she hopes to pass along to her children.
