About the host

I’m Danielle, your new “chase your dreams” friend, cheerleader, and confidant.

I’ve spent the past decade launching my own businesses, trying new jobs, and moving around all in an attempt to figure out what I can do with my life that doesn’t give me the Sunday Scaries.

Somewhere along the way, I randomly googled “jobs that pay your rent” and ended up discovering the weird, wonderful, wanderlust-y world of seasonal work. That discovery led me to a cross-country move from Missouri to California and the desire to share seasonal work (and other cool jobs I never knew existed) with others!

Voila, No to Normal was born, and now I get to spend every week talking with amazing creatives and entrepreneurs defying the “normal” 9-5 way of life.
