Danielle Sewell
About Danielle
Danielle’s life and work is about the integration of mind and heart. Her background has been a mix of the analytical world of business strategy & operations alongside nearly two decades in the embodied world of deep meditation practice & teaching. She loves applying this mix to gnarly problems - above all, helping organizations and individuals figure out what’s most important to them, and then go after it without hesitation
Current Role
Founder of Akaya Consulting, which supports purpose-driven organizations in building healthy, high-performing teams and leaders.
How We Met
Danielle and I were connected during my Seattle chapter, and quickly realized we had a lot of intersections in our personal and professional interests. These include spirituality, career development, and facilitation. She has been a valued thought partner, based upon her ability to understand business, education, and nonprofits, and take a systemic view of various challenges.
What is Catching Her Attention Currently
I’m currently reading Einstein’s biography and am fascinated by the intersection points between modern physics and Buddhist philosophy. It’s also illuminating to learn about the “basic humanness” of this larger than life historical figure.
The framework of Nonviolent Communication requires changing not just how you speak but how you think and see the world. This work has been personally transformational for my husband and me, and I hope to bring this into the professional realm in a more intentional way.
