In this deeply moving episode of The Danette May Show, I sit down with my friend Scott as he shares the raw, unfiltered journey of losing his father. From childhood wounds and unresolved resentment to the final 12 days spent fully present, this conversation explores what it truly means to face grief, forgive the past, and show up when it matters most. If you have ever struggled with how to navigate the passing of a loved one or feared not having closure, this episode will meet you right where you are.

We talk about the realities of caregiving, the emotional weight of Lewy Body dementia, and the powerful shift from avoidance to presence that changed everything for Scott and his family. You will hear about the final moments, the unexpected gifts, and the signs that love continues beyond this life. This episode is a reminder to slow down, open your heart, and choose connection, because in the end it is not about perfection, it is about love, forgiveness, and being there.

In this episode, I share a simple framework I use to make clearer and more aligned decisions in my life called the 3 Ps: purpose, prosperity, and pleasure. When opportunities or invitations come my way, I ask myself if they support at least two of these three areas. This decision filter helps me protect my energy, stay aligned with what matters most, and stop overthinking choices. If you have ever struggled with knowing when to say yes or no, this practice can bring powerful clarity and confidence to your decisions.
I also talk about the idea of romanticizing everyday life and finding magic in the small moments instead of waiting for big trips or major experiences to feel alive. From making coffee in the morning to taking a bath or watering plants, bringing presence and gratitude into daily routines can shift your nervous system, reduce stress, and help you experience more joy in the life you are already living.

IN THIS EPISODE:
(3:32) The 3 Ps framework for better decisions
(4:10) Purpose, prosperity, and pleasure explained
(4:57) Why pleasure is more important than you think
(6:42) Romanticize your everyday life
(8:35) Simple ways to create magic in daily routines
(10:31) February focus and supporting your nervous system
(12:58) Using the 3 Ps to guide your life decisions

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lara Wegener, a German trained medical researcher who spent 14 years studying medicine and conducting research at Oxford and Stanford before stepping away from conventional medicine to explore root cause healing. Her path led her deep into the Yucatán rainforest where she studied a private research project blending Mayan agricultural wisdom, plant medicine, microbial fermentation, and ancient water practices. We talk about how many chronic health issues may stem from environmental toxins, emotional stress, inflammation, and disruptions in the body’s internal terrain, and why ancient cultures focused on restoring balance through nature, detoxification, and cellular regeneration.
Dr. Lara Wegener also shares insights into her upcoming project Forest in a Bottle and explains how fermented rainforest botanicals and microorganisms may support cellular health, detoxification, and regeneration. In our conversation we explore the concept of water memory, the energetic imprint of food and epigenetics, and simple daily habits that can support health such as hydration, movement, and choosing clean whole foods. We also dive into my fascination with ancient civilizations and discuss powerful sacred sites like Giza, Chichén Itzá, Chaco Canyon, and Göbekli Tepe and what these places may reveal about the deeper connection between nature, consciousness, and healing.

In this heartfelt conversation, I sit down with Gina Worful to explore how my philosophy around health, healing, and personal transformation has evolved over the years. We talk about my early days in the fitness industry and how my understanding of nutrition shifted as I realized true wellness is about much more than food and workouts. I share why returning to simple, whole foods, honoring the female body, and reconnecting with nature and intuition have always been at the core of my approach to health. Together, we dive into why women must learn to listen to their bodies, nourish themselves deeply, and reclaim their power through mindful nutrition, movement, and self-trust.
We also explore the deeper emotional and spiritual layers that often appear on the path to healing and personal growth. I open up about how life’s most painful moments can become powerful catalysts for awakening, and why learning to trust your intuition can transform every area of your life. Gina and I discuss practical ways to strengthen your inner guidance, create simple daily rituals that support alignment, and embrace the small shifts that lead to big breakthroughs. If you are feeling called to reconnect with your body, trust your inner wisdom, and step into a more aligned version of yourself, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

In this episode, I’m sharing a guided visualization recorded live at our annual Lotus Rising Live event, where I walk you through a powerful practice of surrender, self-worth, and releasing the patterns that keep you stuck. So often we move through life repeating the same emotional loops without realizing the deeper belief driving them. In this meditation, I invite you to slow down, breathe, and gently uncover the belief connected to a pattern in your life that may be rooted in feeling unworthy.
Together, we enter a calming visualization where you create a safe inner space, clarify a true desire that belongs fully to you, and symbolically plant that intention so it can grow. From there, I guide you through releasing the belief or pattern blocking that desire so you can return feeling lighter, more aligned, and more connected to your worth. If this meditation resonates with you, I’d also love to invite our Lotus Rising community to join me in Sedona on September 12th for Lotus Rising Live. You can learn more at danettecoaching.com.
