- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I’ve become inspired by Danielle. Her fun, confident and open personality made this story a great one to listen to while on my way to work, while packing up to move out or simply just because. I found myself sometimes struggling to pause the audio when I’d arrive at my destinations.
This is the kind of women I love to see. Striving women who know what they want, and get it.
