About Danielle:
Ms. Vann is an Author, Life Coach, Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, and Host of the podcast, The Get Your Life Together, Girl. Ms. Vann was recently featured on PBS’s International Documentary RoadTrip Nation, where she taught mindfulness and meditation to four young adults seeking to find their path in life. Self-care has become a buzzworthy trend that has morphed into indulgence. As this becomes a more prominent element in our daily lives, it distracts us from getting to the root of what self-care actually is and why it’s imperative. With stressful busy lifestyles, anxiety, and inadequate coping skills, we have moved away from health. In her Session, Ms. Vann will discuss what self-care is, provide grounded somatic and daily methods to increase the care of the self, and teach you tools to check in and monitor and thereby mindfully take care of your mind, body and emotions.
