BE WILD. BE UNTAMED.

Hello You Beautiful Soul, 

Welcome to a space where resilience meets redemption, and transformation intertwines with triumph. I'm Danielle Stephens, the author of the Affirmation Journal Coloring Books, and a woman who has weathered the storms of alcoholism, shattered the chains of limiting beliefs, and emerged on the other side, bathed in my own light of healing and empowerment.

My journey has been a testament to the indomitable spirit within each of us—a spirit that can overcome any darkness, no matter how impenetrable it may seem. It was a journey marked by the echoes of clinking glasses drowned in the cacophony of self-doubt, insecurity, and a desperation for a deeper connection. But amidst the wreckage of my past and discovering that it is not WHO I am, I discovered an unyielding determination to rewrite my narrative. 

I've danced with the trauma of limited perspectives, held hands with my wounded inner child, and embraced the power of self-love as the catalyst for my metamorphosis. It hasn't always been an easy road, but it was a necessary one—a path paved with laughter, tears, resilience, and the unwavering belief that I was destined for something greater. 

Now, I stand before you, not as a survivor, but as a guide, a beacon of light for those navigating their own journey through the labyrinth of love, radical self-acceptance, and transformation. My purpose is to empower, to inspire, and to serve as a living testament that liberation is possible, no matter how deeply entrenched one may feel in the clutches of their limited perspective. 

I am here to share the wisdom gained from the alchemy of my own experiences, to offer a hand to those stumbling in the shadows, and to whisper words of encouragement to those who may have lost their way. Together, we will unravel the layers of self-doubt, peel back the scars of the past, and illuminate the path toward self-discovery, trust, growth, and ultimately, a deep love for self. 

This space is a sanctuary for healing, a haven for growth, and a celebration of the resilient spirit that resides within each of us. Take a leap into your own transformative journey, and let us walk hand in hand towards a future where you, too, can stand tall, liberated from the chains that once bound you. 

My journey is not over either, as we have only just begun. 

Won't you join me in your own discovery of the expression of the untamed?

With love, light, and unwavering belief in your infinite freedom, 

Danielle

The battles of my past were not impediments but rather catalysts that fueled my ascent toward my dreams. Each challenge, every hurdle, became an opportunity to grow stronger, to become more resilient. In the midst of adversity, I discovered a wellspring of courage that has propelled me forward. 

Motivated by a deep sense of purpose, I am choosing to pursue a bachelor's degree in design and marketing. It isn't just a career path; it is a conscious decision to marry my artistic spirit with the strategic mindset needed to navigate the business world. Launching my own business is not just not a leap into the unknown; it is a fearless dive into the pool of infinite possibilities. 

My professional journey is intertwined with a profound love and nurturing of my inner child. I've learned that embracing and celebrating her is not a luxury but a necessity. In her innocence, I find inspiration; in her joy, I find motivation. She is the creative spirit that propels me to reach new heights, infusing every project with a sense of wonder and authenticity. 

I've come to understand that success isn't just measured in milestones; it's in the ability to maintain a deep connection with oneself amidst the whirlwind of responsibilities. By lovingly embracing my inner child, I've tapped into an endless reservoir of creativity. I celebrate her curiosity, her playfulness, and her unyielding belief in the magic of possibilities

I believe in the alchemy that occurs when pen meets paper and the raw authenticity that emerges through the strokes of creative endeavors. In the gentle dance of words and colors, individuals find a sanctuary to confront their truths, embrace vulnerabilities, and set free the captive parts of themselves that yearn for acknowledgment.

It is my fervent belief that the journey inward is not a solitary pilgrimage but a collective awakening. In this vision, individuals emerge as empowered beings, unburdened by the weight of unspoken stories, and fully aligned with their truest, most authentic selves. Together, we embark on a journey of self-empowerment, where the untamed pieces within are not only acknowledged but celebrated as integral elements of a beautifully complex whole. 

My ultimate goal is to empower individuals to rewrite their narratives.  By acknowledging and understanding the intricate patterns of their inner dialogue, they can reclaim control over their mind & life. It's about fostering resilience, promoting self-love, and inspiring personal growth. I've seen the transformative power of creative expression in my own life, and I want to share that with others. Everyone deserves the opportunity to break free from the chains of their past and step into a future of their own design.

This is my UNTAMED EXPRESSION, 

This is me FINDING MY WILD.
