Let's take a closer look at the psychological benefits of painting, including how it encourages free expression and reduces stress, ultimately leading to increased creativity!

Welcome to Coaching Conversations, the show where we dive into the inspiring stories of innovators, coaches, and change-makers who are transforming lives and pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

In this episode, I’m speaking to Danielle Robins and she has a powerful and deeply personal story to share. Danielle grew up in a troubled household, with an emotionally unavailable, abusive alcoholic father. At 12, she chose to live with him after her parents’ messy divorce, drawn by his attempts to be the “cool dad.” By 16, she was kicked out, beginning a difficult journey to rebuild her bond with her mother. At 20, Danielle took charge of her life, embarking on a global journey of healing through yoga, meditation, and holistic practices. Now a qualified coach, she empowers others to heal relationship wounds, redefine their stories, and reclaim their lives.

Whether you repeatedly find yourself in relationships that leave you feeling unworthy, unloved and not good enough OR perhaps you push people away to avoid being abandoned, then pull them back in because you crave their attention. Maybe you’ve started to notice the same problems coming up again and again with different people.

I’ll be delving into these questions and so much more in today’s podcast.

Get ready for a raw, inspiring conversation about resilience, healing, and transformation.

In this episode of Coaching Conversations, I'm speaking to Sherly Tavarez, an entrepreneur, influencer and trailblazer.

Dominican-American fashion stylist and entrepreneur Sherly Tavarez is the visionary behind Haus of Curls, a brand created for women embracing their natural hair journey. Growing up, Sherly often heard remarks like, "Why don't you brush your hair?" and "Are you going to the salon to straighten it?"—messages that made her feel curly hair wasn’t beautiful.

For years, she used heat and chemicals to straighten her hair, but eventually decided to fully embrace her natural curls. When she couldn’t find a brand that matched her newfound confidence, Sherly took matters into her own hands, launching Haus of Curls. She transformed the negative comments about natural hair into empowering statements printed on t-shirts, creating a brand that celebrates and uplifts women with curls.

As the founder of Haus of Curls, Sherly has built a thriving brand that blends creativity, authenticity, and a commitment to sustainability in fashion. Her unique vision has not only reshaped how people approach personal style but also how they think about fashion’s impact on the world.

Sherly’s journey from stylist to successful business owner is packed with lessons on resilience, innovation, and carving out your own path in a competitive industry.

Get ready for an insightful conversation about fashion, entrepreneurship, community and staying true to your values.
