Hi, I'm Danica

Beyond Larch Legacy, I am a mother, wife, sister, and friend, roles that have been some of my greatest teachers in compassion, accountability, and love. I have lived many transformations within my relationships, career, and environment, learning that change is rarely a clean before-and-after story. It often looks like tending to what is here while making space for what is becoming, one small courageous choice at a time.

Throughout my career, I have navigated the tension between growth and burnout, learning to redefine success in a way that aligns with who I am, not just what I do. I have reshaped environments around me, creating homes and spaces that feel nourishing and true, and learning to let go when it is time to begin again.

These lived experiences allow me to meet others in their messy middle with deep compassion and a belief in their capacity to grow. I don’t see transformation as something to fix about yourself but as an unfolding into your next chapter with clarity, courage, and curiosity.

You will often find me wandering forest trails, capturing moments of wonder, or laughing with my family. I love a good brewery biking tour, the kind where you lose track of time and find yourself in easy conversations with strangers who feel like friends. I am happiest near water, around a campfire, or hanging out with dogs, who consistently remind me of the beauty of presence and play.

I am a lifelong learner, a recovering overachiever, and someone who believes in the quiet power of small, consistent actions to create profound change. I know transformation can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. It can feel like coming home to yourself, one playful step at a time.
