215. From Survival Mode To Self-Leadership: Parts Work & Core Values With Danielle Z

Kayla MacDonald

In this powerful episode, Kayla sits down with therapist and coach Danielle Z to explore the often-blurry line between therapy and coaching, and how both can support deep transformation.

They dive into Internal Family Systems (IFS), survival mode vs. success, core values, and how to shift from reactive autopilot into conscious, purpose-driven living.

You’ll learn the signs you might be stuck in survival mode and how to start regulating your nervous system, reconnecting with your core self, and building a life rooted in values, not pressure.
