Empathy and Eyebrows Podcast

Storytelling is such an amazing thing. I love to make people laugh or feel by telling stories. Stories connect us because we all have a story to tell. Our stories may not always be the same but when we share our truth, it gives others permission to do the same. Story telling is healing, it's empowering, it's necessary. I want to talk about things. Real things. Things that matter. Relationships, connections, mental health, parenthood, addiction, infidelity, self- awareness, self- destruction, forgiveness, positivity, protecting your energy. Who do you want to be? What do you fear? Are you over love? When is the last time you cried and why? Do You feel bad for hurting someone? Can we talk about all the things? In a social media world we are losing the art of human connection. Can we talk? Talk about things that make you feel? What makes you angry? What makes you happy? When’s the last time you scream laughed so hard that real tears fell from your eyes? WHAT. INSPIRES. YOU. Lets talk about that. Real Conversations. Real People. Real Connections. The Empathy and Eyebrows Podcast with Danni Starr.

Love, it's complicated and after you'v been hurt it can be so difficult to love again. Music, movies and my own experiences gave me a lot of unrealistic expectations of love, and just as I was ready to give up...this fine ass man walked up to me in a fast food restaurant and even though I didn't want it to, love won. I'm glad it did.

It’s way easier said than done! But when you learn to do this, it changes everything! It’s the one year anniversary of the release of my first book and it’s reminded me so much of how we really have no idea what is planned for us. I could have never imagined that my divorce would lead me to a best selling book, and the man I always wanted and deserved. You better believe I’m trusting the process now.
