WHAT DID DANIELLE SAY?
“Domestic abuse is not always physical. It can be mental. It can be emotional. And it can be financial.”
“Each time I have a failure — each time I have a challenge — if I learn something from it, the next time an opportunity comes up I’m going to see it and I’m going to know I need to go for it.”
“In many ways, saving yourself is also actualizing who you really are and taking chances and going for what you really want.”
“Confidence is a muscle that needs to be flexed regularly for it to be strong. If you’re not flexing it regularly and really training yourself to have confidence in who you are and what you do, you’re going to stall.”
“Imperfection is so beautiful.”
“I do genuinely believe that all women are beautiful in their own right if they are happy and they feel fulfilled. It shows in every pore of their body. So, it won’t matter if you have makeup on or you don’t.”
