78: Motherhood, Parenting Our Parents, ADHD, Marriage, and being a 9-figure Multi-passionate Entrepreneur With Danielle Kitzes

WOC and Allies: Business and Career Realtalk

As the only daughter (I have 2 brothers), I find myself doing a lot of the caretaking for my parents.
I’m getting ready for my dad’s knee replacement surgery next month where I’ll be with him for the first 10-days of his recovery. And I’m attending all the doctors appointments with them.
I also want to share, I am choosing to do this and understand I have agency.
But what’s frustrating is that THIS is the SILENT role that a lot of women take on by default -- being the “caregiver” for others whether it’s our kids, parents, partner and friends.
While at the same time as women we also have:

• Mental health challenges like anxiety, ADHD or other neurodivergence
• A career or business that we are passionate about
• Wanting to escape in our closet, move our bodies or just take a nap

We're often expected to be SUPERHEROES -- when sometimes every day we feel like this.
My former client, now neighbor living only a 1-mile away, Danielle Kitzes, is a living example. She's a powerhouse – a 9-figure entrepreneur, a mother of three, and a spiritual mentor.
We get together and dive into everything. We share real-life stories and the struggles we're facing right now, embracing the chaos and the triumphs of our daily lives.
Danielle Kitzes is a transformative guide with a diverse background as a Medical Intuitive, Medium, Psychic & Empath Healer, Reiki Master Teacher, and a successful Multi-Entrepreneur. Danielle co-owned an escrow company for 15 years where she oversaw 9-figure deposits. She’s also a survivor of intergenerational trauma, anxiety, PTSD and depression.
What We Cover in This Episode:

• The silent roles that women are given, and not talked about
• How to communicate with siblings, spouses and kids on what we need (aka boundaries)
• The chaos and struggles of everyday life and how to fill into our own cup
