“I feel more confident as I prepare for the next step in my journey”
“Meeting with Danica gave me some much-needed clarity for my next move. The knowledge and experience she shared left me feeling inspired and motivated. I feel more confident as I prepare for this next step in my journey.”
— Asia
A Break Sounds Great, But You Have (Valid) Concerns.
“I can’t afford to take time off.”
Finances are a common barrier (we get it). The Liberty Launchpad includes budgeting tools and finance sessions to help you create a plan that works for your unique situation without sacrificing your goals or going into debt.
“My job would never let me take time off.”
Asking for time off can be tough, but The Liberty Launchpad provides scripts and strategies to confidently approach your employer. If quitting is the right choice, we’ll show you how to exit gracefully and reintegrate into work when you’re ready.
“I have no idea how to begin.”
You’re not alone. The Liberty Launchpad guides you every step of the way from planning to building confidence so you can go from overwhelmed to in control. Plus, the Liberty Lounge community offers support from like-minded women on the same journey.

Hey, I’m Danica!
I’ve been in your shoes—burnt out, overwhelmed, and wondering if pressing pause would ruin everything I’d worked hard for. In 2019, after reaching my breaking point at work, I successfully negotiated a six-month sabbatical and took a solo trip across Southeast Asia. That break changed my life. Then in 2023, burnout unfortunately hit again. I was laid off from my once dream job and decided to move to Spain to rest, reset, and actually heal my nervous system. That’s when The Liberty Launchpad was born.
I’m a certified Trauma of Money Practitioner, and I understand how burnout and money stress often go hand in hand. I didn’t grow up with a financial safety net, so I had to figure this out the hard way at first. Since then, I’ve helped women plan breaks they didn’t think were possible, and without guilt, shame, or blowing up their finances. If you're ready to do the same, I’d be honored to guide you on your Liberty Leave journey

“I didn’t know where to start, but I’m finally taking a step forward.”
As an immigrant, I have hustled non-stop, never learning how to rest, which was a perfect recipe for a burnout. I really appreciate Dani being genuine about her process.
I found her story very similar to what I have been going through, making me realize how much I’ve been invalidating my struggles just because I didn’t know what to do or where to start. But I am finally taking a step forward and I’m really thankful for all of Dani’s guidance.

“I took control of my mental health.”
After several months of experiencing burn out, stress and depression due to my job, I decided to do something about it.
Danica’s content provided the necessary info which empowered me to take the step and so I did in November 2024. I took the break I needed while receiving my full salary. I took control of my mental health. I’m so grateful for the many gems Danica shares!
–Tasha
Imagine if…
You had the time and space to reflect on what’s next and design a life that feels aligned and intentional.
You could explore the world, discover new places, and reconnect with yourself in ways your busy and overwhelmed life never allowed.
You came back from your break with clarity, purpose, and a renewed sense of what truly brings you joy.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Plan for about 2-2.5 hours per week during the 6-week program. That accounts for one live session per week taught by Danica, exercises & journal prompts to keep you accountable, and a second weekly live session with a guest expert (optional).
If you need some time to catch up, there’s a one week break after week 3.
You’ll also get monthly co-budgeting sessions, and monthly office hours (both optional).
All sessions are recorded, and you’ll have 6 months of access to the materials and community, so you can move at your own pace if life gets in the way.
