Danielle uses mindset techniques, exceptional editing skills, and quantum healing modalities to ensure her clients develop a beautifully crafted and publishable book that they will forever cherish. In her free time, Danielle enjoys swimming, practicing yoga, being outside, and spending time with her husband and their son.

Josephine Sandra Kalagira is a mother, Author, Speaker, Empowerment Mentor, and known as the Setback to Comeback Queen.

Josephine believes that despite our physical or emotional health challenges, they cannot define us or our future if we do not allow it. As a result of her lived experience, she felt called to help support others living with physical or emotional adversities to Thrive and Shine through their setbacks by sharing her story, lessons, advice, and tips with ease.
