Ep79: The Courage of Choosing Love with guest Stephanie Dalfonzo

This week, as part of Courage Month, I’m speaking to Stephanie Dalfonzo. She’s a former celebrity DJ turned spiritual healer, working with clients to face their stress and anxiety, and to actively choose love and joy in their lives. She and I talk about the law of attraction, the vibrational nature of joy, she shares a quick breathing practice to help with anxiety, and we talk about how you can display courage in a million baby-step ways. I just loved it when she said “Courage doesn’t have to be that big.” Stephanie and I hit it off right from the start, and I love how we got to talk about the Courage of choosing love. I love our energy together, because as you’ll see we just have loads in common.

The Courage of Choosing Love

I toyed with about 5 different titles for this episode, from choosing joy, to facing your fears, to waking up to your own breath. Speaking with Stephanie was a bit like speaking with someone I felt I’d met before; she and I are so like minded. We talk about choosing joy in stress filled or anxious times, we connect over how to be mindful of news consumption during this difficult political era, and how and WHY choosing joy is so very good for you and your emotional health. I know you’re just going to love getting to know her. Here’s the interview with Stephanie Dalfonzo.
