Episode Synopsis

Daria Burke has lived many lives—fashion executive, C-suite leader, trauma survivor, and now, debut author. In this powerful conversation, Daria opens up about the moments that shaped her new memoir Of My Own Making and the healing journey that unfolded in the process. From growing up in poverty with an absent father and a mother battling addiction, to finding freedom through therapy, neuroscience, and deep self-examination, Daria reminds us that we are not our origin stories, we are who we choose to become. This episode explores trauma, resilience, reparenting, and the science behind post-traumatic growth. If you’ve ever wondered whether you can rewrite your story, Daria is proof that you can.Connect with Daria:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dariaburke/ Website: https://www.dariaburke.com/Purchase Of My Own Making: https://www.amazon.com/My-Own-Making-Memoir/dp/1538766809 Connect with us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamshanettamcdonald/Newsletter sign-up: https://shanetta.substack.com/
