With a direct, empathetic, and compassionate voice, I share my evolving story to inspire you to share yours, inviting you into a space where self-discovery and reflection spark profound healing. Together, we explore the power of seeing ourselves clearly and stepping boldly into who we’re becoming. I’ve realized that if I’m not all of me, I’m nothing—done hiding in the shadows, afraid to show my full self. All my mirrors matter, infinite reflections uniting my past, present, and future into one sacred truth. As a Black woman, I stand before these mirrors, honoring every facet—wounds, triumphs, ancestral wisdom, and dreams yet to unfold—to craft a reflection that’s wholly me. I invoke Black women to reflect in all their mirrors, to embrace the old, the new, the pain, and the power, knowing it’s all you. We refuse to enter spaces dimming our light, choosing instead to break the mirror of societal distortions and celebrate the infinite layers of our existence, where vulnerability and courage intertwine to redefine our worth. What makes this podcast unique? It’s my unfiltered bravery in laying bare my journey, creating a sacred sanctuary for Black women to reflect, release, and grow. In “mirror moments,” we shatter the lies of external narratives, weaving our stories to reflect our shared strength and ancestral resilience. This is a call to honor every dimension of our being—past, present, and future—and to craft reflections that radiate Infinite potential. Together, we build a space where our infinite mirrors liberate us, empowering us to redefine our worth as Black women.

    Caged Bird’s Alchemy: My Song

    In this episode, I explore the caged bird’s song, realizing my strength was never a choice but a survival instinct. People praise how I endure, but I never had options like leaving my kids or falling into addiction. I chose to sing, turning pain into purpose. My capacity to love, to try again, to find silver linings, once felt like a curse, making me angry at endless tests. Losing my son became my greatest lesson, teaching me to listen before chaos, to weave warmth from ashes. I built my own cage, locking doors for safety, distracting myself with what didn’t serve me. Through tears, I see how I froze, ran, hid, but never let go of my heart. The real security is acceptance, loving every part of me, good and bad. No more prisoner of my own war.

    From DC with Hate : A Seasons Truth

    In this season finale, I dive deep into the soul-crushing betrayal that unfolded with DC, a friend I held close to my heart, whose whispered “I love you” turned into a hollow lie as he forced himself on me . That night didn’t just deepen the loss of my voice; it became a mirror forcing me to confront my own instincts, questioning why I failed to trust my choices and decisions when danger loomed. The guilt that weighed me down stemmed from childhood encounters with cousins and O, where I didn’t know better as a child, carrying that confusion into adulthood, believing DC was truly my friend. I torment myself with thoughts of when that friendship twisted, whether he was predatory from the start, seizing an opportunity I was too naive to see, and how I could have missed the signs. This experience has been a painful awakening, pushing me to explore the self-doubt that silenced me and to seek the strength within to rebuild my trust in myself. As this season draws to a close, my heart swells with gratitude for every listener who has journeyed with me through the shadows of my past. Despite the heavy burdens of abuse and loss, I’ve come to deeply appreciate the woman I am today, using these trials as opportunities to reflect on myself in mirror moments that reveal my growth. Though my external voice was stripped away for so long, my internal dialogue has transformed, and now when I stand before the mirror, I love the reflection staring back at me. It took finding my voice both inside and out to embrace these me moments, and I warmly invite you to return next season to continue this path together, discovering your own voice amid the chaos.

    My Store of Secrets : A Child’s Silent Scream & Surviving the Unseen

    In this episode, I recount opening the door to sheriff’s officers as a child, facing eviction. We sat on the curb, desperately waiting for help.Later we moved to a dissembled community in Chicago.My mom’s absence left me vulnerable, sent to the store where a man preyed on me, starting with “help in the back” and escalating to touching my feet, lifting my shirt, dropping my pants. I froze, lost my voice, wearing baggy clothes to hide, rejecting pink for black, overwhelmed by touch. Signs went unseen, my mom ,a mother of four by the time she was 21, my siblings lost in their lives. I reflect on the lasting scars, disconnecting healthy touch from predatory, only finding safety with my kids. I wonder how many girls he targeted, how he knew my mom wasn’t around. No answers needed anymore, I stay away, listen to my intuition’s warnings. I’m Talkin To You , Im Talkin Me Too. Hey, it’s Danielle To You from I’m Talkin to You, I’m Talkin to Me Too!

    From Ashes to Bloom: Sun After the Storm

    In this episode, I unravel the storm of 2017, starting with my son’s birth by C-section, a fragile three pounds, fighting in the NICU until he passed at home in May. By July, pregnant again, I buried my shame and rage, questioning God, terrified of losing another. Bed rest and weekly shots marked my anxious days, but an ex-husband’s insistence led to a reckless Thanksgiving night, forcing an emergency C-section less than ten months later, chaotic and risky. She arrived to “Here Comes the Sun,” tiny and beautiful, rushed to the NICU. Through tears, I reflect on losing my son, feeling like a failure despite my body’s fight.  Too scared to hold her, I pumped milk, bracing for her end, but she defied odds. Teaching her sign language, I found my unscarred self in her smile, her love mending my pain. She’s my sun, proving light follows darkness, a mirror of my healed spirit Hey, it’s Danielle To You from I’m Talkin to You, I’m Talkin to Me Too!

    In this  deeply personal episode, I bare the unseen battle of birthing twins in a tub at home, a secret I’ve carried in silence. Discovering my pregnancy with lifeless twins after a quiet ultrasound, I hid my grief while bartending, pacing through labor until delivering them, and fainting from blood loss. The weight of losing Infinite and Divine crushed me, yet I showed up daily, masking my pain. Through tears, I reflect on , feeling like a failure despite my body’s strength. No more trying, just the messy truth of my unseen struggle. I recall the shock of labor, the isolation without support, and the shame that silenced me, fearing judgment for my body’s repeated trials. Each loss, from my first son at 36 weeks to my daughter at 26, left scars, yet I stand here, letting this truth breathe. It’s a story of survival, not perfection, as I face the void left by those I couldn’t save. I’m Talkin To You , Im Talkin Me Too.
