Tell us more about your company! What do you do and what pushed you to start?

Business Coach, Strategist & Professional Problem Solver

As a strategist and business coach, I’m equal parts big picture and details. I excel at detail-oriented tasks and long-term planning that requires a high-level approach. This means you get to work out of your zone of genius while I’m creating an action plan for today, next quarter, or even next year.

With me, you get the accountability of a business coach with the expertise of a systems nerd, marketing officer, and brand strategist.

I remove the burden of running a business off my clients’ shoulders and I’m proud to share that they often say: “I don’t have to worry about that. Danielle will take care of it!”

What is your definition of success? How do you know when you’ve reached it?

Flow and ease in my relationships and day to day responsibilities. Don't get me wrong, I know that life has curveballs but being flexible and confident in responding to them in a way that aligns for me personally is success.

Tell us about your most transformational moment as an entrepreneur?

My most transformational moment was the decision that pivoted me into becoming an entrepreneur (even though at the time I didn't know it). For my 40th birthday, I took a solo trip (which was supposed to be with a dear friend) where I met several online influencers (though I didn't know that either). The trip was so much fun. Outdoors, tons of laughter, reflection, and a break from a busy life. When I returned one of them contacted me about doing some consulting and the rest led me here. The lesson here was the importance of getting out of my comfort zone, taking time for myself, and the possibilities that present themselves when you least expect it.

What was one of your biggest challenges in business?

Realizing that I needed to work in alignment with who I am in terms of time management, marketing, and operations and not what ``the experts`` were saying. Everything fell into place once I made that adjustment.

How do you handle the harder days? The struggles? Those moments when you feel like giving up?

I look to my team. My hardest days are the days I feel like I've let my clients down. I get into my head (a lot) and I'm really hard on myself. My team gives me perspective, tough love, laughter, and solutions. I know that time and moving forward heal most things and I try to embrace the harder moments as lessons for the next time.

How has being a Boston Business Women Inner Circle member positively influenced your life + business?

In essence, being a member of the Boston Business Women Inner Circle has not only expanded my network and enriched my knowledge but has also redefined my approach to business and life. The positivity, inspiration, and empowerment I've derived from this community continue to propel me toward new heights of success.

Tell us about your most proud moment in your career.

I don't think there has been one moment but just a feeling over time that I have a lot of great experiences and that most things I can figure out. For so many years I carried a chip on my shoulder that I didn't know enough or have enough experience even though I did and it was just a story that I told myself. I still make sure that I'm learning all of the time but I'm really settling into my strengths and knowledge and ability to support others in really meaningful ways.

Who is the woman behind your business? What does she like? How does she spend her free time? What does she value?

Danielle Levy is a sought-after business coach who helps six and seven-figure business owners expand with clarity and efficiency. Danielle is also the Founder and CEO of The Boardroom League™.

With a background in agency work, Danielle has experience in the traditional business world, as well as the online entrepreneurial space. A problem solver at heart, she believes in helping business owners build a trustworthy ecosystem of professional resources, so that they can focus on their vision, instead of being distracted by day-to-day business obligations. She holds an MBA, is certified as a Project Management Professional, and is a Certified Online Business Manager.

In 2021, Danielle founded The Boardroom League™ to give other entrepreneurs a little black book of trusted industry professionals to help them implement and scale their businesses. The Boardroom League consists of experts in a variety of fields; including metrics, design, copywriting, strategic pricing, funnels, social media, and more.

Danielle’s vision came to life when she realized that she was taking this team of experts with her from project to project, and recognized that other entrepreneurs could benefit from her one-on-one support and trusted team as well.

In her personal life, Danielle is an energetic mother of two boys, who understands the balance of being both a hockey Mom AND a successful entrepreneur.

What makes you stand out from others in your field? What do you do differently?

I have a lot of experience across a lot of different areas of business (really solid and deep expertise) at the same time I'm incredibly transparent about areas that are not my strength and I have an amazing network to refer out to (my network and being a connector is definitely a superpower).

Where can we keep up with you? What social media platforms do you use the most?

Instagram
