From Litigation to Love — with Daniel Robertson
Daniel's Story:
Daniel Robertson spent 14 years as a lawyer.
He excelled at analysis and argument, but the adversarial system clashed with his values.
At Pepperdine he studied world-class mediation and kept that seed alive for a decade.
Today he’s pivoting into relationship coaching, helping people heal and connect rather than fight and fracture.
His work blends spiritual inquiry (think A Course in Miracles and Richard Rohr’s “holy mystery”) with grounded tools for emotional processing.
He sees self-love and relational love as a both/and: we grow by validating ourselves and by receiving trustworthy love from others.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
How to pivot from a head-led career to heart-aligned work without burning your bridges.
A clear way to process emotions (RAIN): recognize, allow, investigate, nurture—so you’re calm before you act.
How to use feelings as data: map fear, anger, sadness, joy, shame to the unmet needs they signal—and choose healthy strategies.
Attachment made practical: spot anxious/avoidant patterns in the moment and shift toward secure behavior.
A simple “pause protocol” for texts and tough talks: self-soothe first, then communicate with clarity.
And much more...
