Do It! I Dare You! with Daron O\'DonnellDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O'Donnell[#23] I Dare You to Plant SeedsThis week, I'm back with a gentle message from the San Jose Municipal Rose Garden, where everything around me is a reminder that growth takes time. After a few weeks of intentional rest, I’m reflecting on how we can be both the seed and the nurturer—watering our dreams, processing our grief, and choosing patience over pressure. Whether it’s a new relationship, a creative project, or your own healing journey, remember: what’s meant to bloom will bloom. Just keep showing up with care.This week, I dare you to plant your seeds… and trust the timing...2025-05-1305 minDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O\'DonnellDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O'Donnell[#22] I Dare You to SmileThis week’s episode almost didn’t happen—until a little nudge reminded me how powerful showing up can be, even when you don’t feel ready. From the front seat of my car, I’m keeping it real and keeping it moving, even through the heavy stuff. Life is short, life is weird, and life is worth celebrating. So if you’re feeling the weight this week, I dare you to smile anyway. Dance a little. Hydrate. Text a friend. The joy is still there—and it wants to find you.Journal PromptsWhat’s something small...2025-05-0103 minDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O\'DonnellDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O'Donnell[#21] I Dare You to Take it EasyThis week, I’m reflecting on what it means to take it easy. As I navigate some big feelings, I’m reminded that growth doesn’t have to be linear—and that healing rarely is. I share a small but powerful moment from one of my yoga classes and what it means to meet yourself where you’re at, without the pressure to perform or prove. If you’re in a season of softness or on the edge of transformation, I dare you to listen to your body, your heart, and your own timing. Take it easy. Drink water...2025-04-2004 minDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O\'DonnellDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O'Donnell[#20] I Dare You to Be AuthenticThis week we’re talking about what it really means to be authentic—not just the performative kind, but the kind that lets people see you, even when it’s uncomfortable. We get into the difference between showing up strong vs. showing up vulnerable, how expectations in relationships mess with our energy, and why trusting yourself is everything. Also: full moon energy, dumpster chic sunglasses, and Emily’s vegan cookies. You know, the essentials.I dare you to be authentic—messy, tender, loud, soft, ALL of it.Journal PromptsWhen do I feel mos...2025-04-1321 minDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O\'DonnellDo It!

I Dare You! with Daron O\'DonnellDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O'Donnell[#18] I Dare You to AppreciateThis week, I’m reflecting on gratitude—not just as a feeling, but as a practice that changes everything. After a spontaneous Sunday trip to see Lewis Howes and Brendon Burchard live in SF (spoiler: it was magical), I’m reminded how appreciation shifts your frequency and calls in more of what you want. Gratitude isn't about ignoring the hard stuff—it’s about choosing to focus on what’s working, even when life feels messy. Let’s talk about how appreciation creates a loop of joy, generosity, and growth. I dare you to live in appreciation.BONUS: Thi...2025-03-3011 minDo It! I Dare You! with Daron O\'DonnellDo It!

Between eclipse season, retrogrades, and the real start of the astrological new year, emotions are high and clarity might feel just out of reach. But what if instead of running from the chaos, we acknowledged it? In this episode, I share how naming my feelings and communicating clearly helped me clear the clutter—internally and relationally. I dare you to do the same: acknowledge what’s not working, cleanse what’s no longer aligned, and ride that Aries energy into your next empowered season.

This week, I’m talking about the power of community—checking in on your people, letting them check in on you, and knowing when to actually say what’s on your heart. Sometimes you just need someone to listen.
