    Life List: Stop Waiting. Start Living.

    Ep. 252 What if the biggest regret of your life isn't what you did... but what you kept putting off? This week on HealingHer Within, Maryann Rivera-Dannert shares the mindset shift that completely changed the way she approaches dreams, purpose, and personal growth. Inspired by the book The Life List and a lesson from Steve Harvey, Maryann explains why she's replacing the idea of a "bucket list" with something far more empowering—a Life List. If you've ever felt behind in life, compared yourself to everyone else's highlight reel, or wondered if it's simply too late to chase your dreams, this episode is your reminder that tomorrow starts today. Most people create a Bucket List... A list of things they hope to accomplish before they die. But what if you flipped the script? Instead of waiting for "someday," Maryann challenges you to begin creating the future your younger self always imagined.

    Is He Right for You? 10 Questions That reveal the Truth

    Ep.250 Have you found yourself dating the wrong man? There were signs, red flags, and you didn't follow your intuition! Sis, don't be too hard on yourself, because this is something that many women have struggled through. And the struggle stops TODAY. Dating isn’t just about chemistry, attraction, or being chosen. It’s about alignment, emotional safety, peace, values, and recognizing whether a relationship supports the woman you are becoming... or have become! Too many women ignore their intuition, settle for potential, or abandon themselves in relationships that were never healthy for them, from the start. This happens for a number of reasons: desperation, fear of being alone, not truly knowing themselves and more.
