The Modern Spiritualist

07/03/2026

As a teacher, the courses that I offer here at TMS change regularly to keep material fresh and relevant, however the main purpose behind the classes always remains constant and that is “conscious living”.

Many people do not know what this is and that is the reason for my work.

I’ve been teaching now for 18 years, with a wide variety of topics and experience.

Everything from Eastern and Western philosophy, to Herbalism, Lineage, Magical Living, to Meditation and Wellness, Nature Based Art Classes, Organic Beauty and Career Development.

My expertise covers a vast array of areas, because I have spent my almost 50 years on this planet learning, discovering and integrating, so that my tool box could be expansive. I will always first be a student, learning as much as I can in my life. The gift is to share knowledge with others.

Many don’t know this about me, but I’m also a natural intuitive. Since childhood, I have learned to follow my instincts, and have always been able to “tap” in beyond what is in front of me. It has served me well, and has been a big part of my work, such as helping others discover their own intuition and to trust their knowledge and wisdom.

I often work as an intuitive guide in this way, and work with clients 1-1 who are referred.

The work is transformative and yields incredible results. I’m so blessed and grateful to do the work I do.

For some time I stepped away from the intuitive classes and services, because it can often be draining for me. I have leaned into other aspects of my career and have loved the balance. Key word is balance and I’ve returned to offering intuitive work and teaching classes to those who would like to develop their own skills.

The truth, is that even when it is unspoken, these intuitive abilities are always with me. In a conference room. In a board meeting. On a photoshoot. Meeting with friends. Intuition just lives within my being. To me, conscious living stems from this deeper space of just “knowing”.

When this is accepted, aligned and understood, everything in life just changes. It connects you to new people, places and opportunities.

When we learn to listen (and I don’t mean just with our ears), life shifts us into something greater.

My teachings explore all of this.

Speaking of, I am hosting a mini virtual lunch series this month, that will support your career, intuition, leadership and growth.

This lunch series will be insightful, engaging and practical -and a bonus to be together in community and network with one another.

We meet for four sessions on:

7/8, 7/9, 7/14 and 7/15 from 12-1 p.m. EST

It is my hope that some of the skills I’ve collected in life, can be implemented and useful to you too. They have served me well.

In addition, I’m hosting a Rest and Recharge Virtual event - "Renewed Wisdom for Strength and Clarity" this month. This will be a gem! Enjoy Guided meditation, nervous system reset, balanced clarity, breathwork and more.

We are literally building a new timeline and leaving a lot of our old self behind, learning lessons from our wounds and integrating more of our identities. If you feel the shift, it is here! Honor where you are and allow yourself to be led by your own inner compass. This weekend, be sure to spend some time in nature, as nature will fill your cup and help you gain more strength and clarity around your purpose and mindset.

Listen to your body and the natural rhythms that surround you. There is a palpable heartbeat that is universal for many of us right now, inspiring us into new ideas and directions. Allow it to bring you home to your roots and yourself.

Happy solstice weekend! Share the happy vibes and lift others up as best as you can XO

This new moon in Gemini is moving mountains to get our attention. It’s dissolving any past belief systems that are holding us back and giving us a clean slate to build our foundations with renewed enthusiasm and a steady pace.

The subconscious mind is removing false illusions that we have created to keep ourselves feeling safe. That means that any stories, agendas, or narratives that we believe to be true, may not be true at all.

This moon is intense, as most of them lately seem to be. It’s bringing relief to the chaos but also having us question what we want to carry with us into the future. It’s bringing our attention to what is inside, not outside of us. The energy this is creating is one of strength and resilience, not resistance.

In order to get into that strength and resilience, we must first let go of the things that keep us in loops and in patterns and acknowledge the very thing that is limiting. Once this happens, then something incredible happens - you begin to see the world in a different way.

You can move more freely, think more opportunely and become less of a “seeker” and more of a “doer”. The doer chops wood and carries water. The seeker forgets that there is strength needed to chop wood and carry water. This moon reminds us that we all hold wisdom - wisdom beyond what a book, or post or Instagram video can tell us. It’s about learning to look within and trust the process. It’s about rest, and time for quiet. In the quiet you hear yourself think.

Thank you new moon for bringing more wisdom. The world certainly needs more critical thinkers and doers. Remember, what you seek is seeking you - but what you “do” can make a difference that lasts lifetimes.

Today is said to be the luckiest day of the year! The stars are aligning just so and there is something to be said for the power of positive thinking.

While I still feel exactly the same, I must say I am truly looking forward to something to open and flow for the rest of this year.

So far, 2026 has felt a bit stuck and muddy (at least for me); however, I do feel the universe opening its doors into something new and fresh and authentic. It feels like a homecoming - a sense of fulfillment and excitement, just teetering on the edge of careful hope and dreams.

I feel as if I’m shaking off the tightly fitted garments and stepping into the pieces that fit just right. It’s a nice feeling. Shedding the old versions of ourselves is a must, so we can truly become who we are meant to be. All the learning in between - the lessons, the growing pains of being human and growing into ourselves. What a journey it is. For those of us who work tirelessly each day to hold up our half of the sky, I see you.

So, on this lucky day, I make a wish. I can’t say what that wish is, but it is for all of you and I hope it comes true - because in this wild world, we look out for each other (and maybe, just maybe that is the wish)

Remember ⭐️

✨Believe in yourself.
✨Trust the process.
✨Write it down.
✨Don’t be afraid of change.
✨Growth comes often if we let it.
✨Ask for help.
✨Love often.
✨Work hard.
✨Find joy in the small things.
✨Be courageous.
✨Take risks.
✨Start over.
✨Don’t play small.
✨Love yourself.
✨Be kind.

You know that fragrance that you just can’t get enough of? I’m pretty sure this is it.

I am OBSESSED with this easy to use, roll-on, essential oil blend.

I’ve been making it for over a year now and it’s currently available in store or you can find it in my shop - Modern Spirit Alchemy.

It smells like summer, but with hints of patchouli, vanilla, nag champa and rose. It has that old school, chunky bottle, roll-on vibe that brings me back to simpler times.

I better make more because I’m using all of my stock for myself! 😆 ha, ha. True story. This is a personal favorite ⭐️

Grab one for your beach bag, purse, gym bag, or several to stash in multiple places!

Made in small batches. 100% organic. Coconut oil base.

June is one of my favorite months of the year - not only is it my birthday month, but it is the time to welcome Summer, to celebrate culture and diversity (as we should do every month), and it's typically a time to slow down, to breathe, relax, dip your toes in the sand, take long walks, and to imagine your life as you want it.

It's a month to get involved, to support community, to offer your services for activism and to raise your voice!

The world is begging to slow down, pause and re-assess what is working and what isn't. Our own communities are feeling burnt out, overwhelmed and looking for ways to connect. Social media is a great avenue for this - but, not in the way you may think.

People are craving real, raw, honest connection and it's time we use social media for what it was truly intended for. We are needing the arts, humanity, culture, intentional conversations, and it's more important than ever to share your work in a very intentional way - one that inspires, uplifts, motivates, but doesn't need or desire.

We have to toss that model out the window. True connection comes from the heart. True connection comes from storytelling, volunteering, being a good friend and neighbor. We are being guided to move in new ways and that my friends, I am here for. Life is what we make it to be - and June gifts us an opportunity to re-evaluate what matters most.

How we approach mental health, mindfulness, wellness, the arts, the humanities, - all of it comes from one place and that is one of sincerity and consistency. In order to raise the bar, we have to stay focused on the end goal and that is making this world a better place for all.

Happy June 4th all

This month has been so full of creativity, new connections, team building, transformation, beauty, and community.

On May 8th, I co-created with the team in Amesbury, MA, alongside my talented sister, who captured these amazing shots. Our goal was to inspire an evening of dress-up, styling outfits from my modern-to-vintage upcycled clothing, weaving in stunning pieces from Caravan, that created individualized esthetic to curate unique and eclectic outfits that were inspired by art deco, boho, coastal, and vintage vibes.

Owner, Jen Silver, treated us to a night of bubbly, charcuterie and filled the shop with a selection of tunes that brought everyone together. Kate Redgate worked the room, side by side with Jen and I to create inspired looks. Models and stole the show, bringing our visions to life. It was a magical night!

This is how it’s done folks. Making connections that last and that inspire new looks, so we feel truer to ourselves. To be bold, authentic and real with those around us - to stand out in a room.

As a transformational coach, my work goes way beyond the traditional career coaching or wellness field - it models real living, taking risks into unfamiliar territory and being inspired by your own uniqueness. In a world that constantly tells us to be more, we must always remember to be ourselves.

True transformation comes from within, and that includes all the parts of our life story that make us who we are. There are many versions of ourselves that we get to meet in a lifetime. Let’s greet them all with enthusiasm and gratitude. Even if we don’t always like those versions, they appear for a reason (and often just for a season).

Sometimes the way you show up on the outside doesn’t match how you feel on the inside — and that’s where my work comes in. I offer closet edits, wardrobe consulting, real beauty, and transformational coaching that’s fully individualized to meet you exactly where you are. Growth starts with the desire to become a better human and reflect that evolution back into the world around you.

This new moon in Ta**us tomorrow is tipping the scales with energy. It's been off the charts for most of May, but this last 7-10 days has been pushing a lot of us into realms of discomfort, anxiety and truth serums. It's more important than ever to protect your energy, say "no" to things that aren't aligned and to move towards a direction that feels good to you.

This moon is clearing the past and positioning us towards a better future. It is holding so much potency, it's squeezing us into such discomfort, that only growth will be the result. Talk about transformation! It's working from the inside out - if you have been under the weather, feeling depleted, frustrated, stalled, confused, then this month is working to help you to create better boundaries, set the tone for what you are calling in and to manifest something more aligned and attainable.

Don't let this moon pass you by...use it to get clear, and I mean really clear with your intentions. Ask for what you need, not necessarily what you want - those don't always align in the way we think they will. These next few days will continue to be electric, giving us opportunity to choose our words and decisions wisely.

Like an old sage would say "think before you speak and only speak if it's meant to be heard". Some things are better left for a later date. We are all feeling this unusual time and it requires TLC.

How are YOU feeling?

As we grow, we discover what truly matters. And often, it’s found in the messiness of everyday life; the unfolded laundry, the dishes in the sink, the papers on the desk, the laughter in the next room.

As a woman, a mother, a caretaker, a wife, a business owner (and more), I do most of the work myself. It takes a village to make a home a home — and sometimes that village is just you, doing your best.

This is REAL LIFE. Not the curated perfection we scroll past online.
And we need to start talking about what’s underneath the anxiety, the burnout, the high cortisol, the pressure to be everything to everyone.

The beauty of life is often in the mundane.
The closets that need tending.
The blankets on the couch.
The chaos that comes with creating a life that’s yours.

The life YOU are creating — that’s what matters.

Don’t be afraid to show up fully, in the messiness of it all. My new favorite acronym (late to the party as a Gen X’er): — In Real Life.

Let’s be real - truly real. Say it the way it is. Share your thoughts. Embrace the chaos. Make it your own.

I can’t help others embrace who they are if I’m not being honest about my own life. Relatability comes from truth.

So hi — I’m Danielle. A transformational coach who specializes in real life. I help you polish the parts that need shining while staying true to who you are. No bu****it. Just grounded, lived transformation.

22 years of coaching.
22 years of business ownership.
22 years of becoming.
A lifetime of curating magical living.

A promise to be as real as possible-even when the world challenges us to forget who we are.

My business, The Modern Spiritualist, has been with me for 17 years. It represents all the parts that make you, you and me, me.

Wisdom. Growth. Mind, body, and spirit integration. Authentic beauty. Confidence. The winding path toward wholeness.

This is the work.
This is the life.

This is

Let’s create together and discover what transformation looks like. My books are opening for June. ✨
