Danielle Hawthorne is an executive coach and CEO of Worthy of Dignity, a leadership coaching and development practice supporting women and leaders navigating burnout, transition, and increasing responsibility. She specializes in working with high-achieving women who are still capable and successful, but no longer willing to abandon themselves in order to lead.
With over a decade of senior leadership experience, Danielle brings rare credibility to her coaching. She has led complex programs, managed multi-million-dollar budgets, advised executive teams, and built high-retention, people-centered cultures across mission-driven organizations. Her coaching is grounded in real leadership demands, not theory.
Danielle helps clients break patterns of overfunctioning and self-abandonment, make decisions from clarity rather than pressure, and lead with authority that is sustainable and aligned. She is an EVOK Certified Intentional Coach (2024) and a sought-after facilitator and speaker on burnout and dignity-centered leadership.
