I’m really glad you’re here. Truly.

I’m Dani. A writer, eclectic witch, empath with a dark edge, and a forever student of life. I was born on February 20th in Brazil, moved to the Netherlands in 2004, and later found my way to Denmark in 2017. These days, I live in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere, which suits me more than I ever expected.

I share my life with my Volpino Italiano cutie, Misty, who runs the house and keeps me grounded when the world feels loud.

This blog began as a place to write about living with Fibromyalgia, Bipolar Disorder, and ADHD, but it slowly became something more. It’s my digital sanctuary. A space where I can be honest, curious, messy, thoughtful, and real. A place to tell the truth without shrinking myself.

Here, I write about the things that shape me. Mental health, healing, identity, spirituality, nature, and relationships. Especially relationships. I’ve failed in many of them, learned the hard way, loved deeply, stayed too long, let go too late, and rebuilt myself more times than I can count. I write about connection, boundaries, heartbreak, self-worth, and what it actually takes to grow emotionally, not from a pedestal, but from lived experience.

I’ve battled depression for as long as I can remember. It isn’t always easy to practice what I write about here, and some days are heavier than others. I don’t get it right all the time. But I keep showing up. I keep trying. And no matter how hard it gets, I refuse to give up. This space isn’t about perfection. It’s about persistence.

I practice Eclectic Witchcraft, with a strong pull toward green and kitchen magic. Nature keeps me sane. Plants are my allies, herbs are my teachers, and the seasons help quiet my mind when it spins too fast.

I’m deeply interested in psychology and self-education. I’m not a therapist, and I don’t pretend to be one. I simply believe that understanding our minds, patterns, and wounds can help us live with more compassion for ourselves and others. What I learn, I share through reflections, lived experiences, and quiet observations.

I’ve been blogging since the early 2000s, back when the internet was full of pixel gifs and chaotic layouts. I’ve never loved being on camera, but writing has always been my way of making sense of the world. It’s how I process, heal, remember, and connect.

So if you’re here for witchy thoughts, emotional honesty, reflections on love and loss, or simply a place that feels human and safe, I’m really glad you found your way here. Maybe you needed this space.

Thank you for being here. It really means more than you know.

Blessed be ♥ 🌿
