Description: What does it take to build a life and career that’s fully, unapologetically yours? In this episode (part 1 of 2), Danielle sits down with entrepreneur and creator Valeria Lipovetsky for a conversation that’s less of an interview, and more of a mirror. They toss out the question cards, ditch the formal intros, and dive straight into the good stuff: ambition, motherhood, marriage, sex, social media, fertility, and the surprising superpower of asking better questions. Valeria shares: Why she never went to therapy—and what finally changed her mind The single moment that cracked open her authenticity Her unexpected (and poetic) obsession with secondhand shoes The timeline pressures no one tells women about—and what helped her reclaim her own The hardest season in her marriage—and how they’re finding their renaissance now Why her son taught her more about self-confidence than any book ever could Her honest take on growing a massive following while still feeling like she’s figuring it out The rules she broke to build a multi-million dollar business—and the one phrase that still haunts her from childhood This is part one of a two-part conversation—come back next week for even more.
