About Danese

In June 2018,  I changed my life....and it was definitely for the better.


Up until that point, I had been in the legal industry for over 26 years.  I started as a lowly law student at one of the top-tiered law schools in the nation,  transitioned to a legal investigator of first-degree and capital murder cases,  and ultimately  became an associate attorney at The Cochran Firm, - one of several regional firms founded by the late  Johnnie Cochran. There I matured as an attorney and groomed my skills to become one of the firm's first female regional managing attorneys.


By all outside accounts, it appeared that I had reached the pinnacle of success in both my career and personal life.  I was married to a wonderful husband + 2 beautiful children + a wonderful job = a wonderful life, right?  Wrong!   No one knew I was carrying an enormous secret.  On the inside I felt like a failure. I was miserable, exhausted, and burned out. I KNEW this was not what I was supposed to be doing.  I needed to change the trajectory of my life.   


And so I did … I quit my job.

I walked away from the practice and management of law and stepped fully into my roles as both a wife and a mother. For over a year,  I rested, played, planned, and prayed. While I did not miss practicing law during that time, I did miss the opportunities it provided to help others. I realized that helping people become the best version of themselves was something that I was both good at and loved. So, I decided to make that my next chapter, and I started my path toward a Life Changer Coaching career.


So I went back to school  (Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching), and here I am:  A certified professional life changer coach who has changed her life for the better and would love the opportunity to help you change yours!
