Another Way with Dani
Hi, I'm Dani! I love people and I love talking about the human experience. I'm a seeker and a connector. From a very young age I've believed in the power of discourse and critical thinking - and that "because this is how we've always done it" is not a valid reason to keep doing things a certain way.
In every episode I sit down with a different guest (or guests) and dive into how they are challenging the status quo and choosing unconventional paths in life. Together, we explore their insights, experiences, and stories around specific themes. The mission is to open our hearts and minds so we can consciously explore ways to live more authentically, intentionally, and on purpose. And hopefully break through outdated paradigms despite what we've been told or taught.

Another Way with Dani
From Career Crisis to Entrepreneurship: Michael Weiss-Malik
Michael Weiss-Malik is the inventor and founder of Groove Thing, the world's first internal music player. He's also a client of mine, and now a friend. I was really excited to hear more about his professional story because we have a lot in common! He shares with us his journey of becoming pretty burned out in his corporate career and how this career crisis and (a short-lived) sabbatical turned into him inventing Groove Thing and eventually launching it as a business. It is a true intersection of his passions: music, sex, and tech.
We also dive into the vulnerability of becoming a business owner in the sex toy and broader sex positive industries, and how that has brought even more fulfillment and alignment in his life and career.
