Unravel is an immersive program comprised of 12 modules that bring you into a deeper authentic relationship with yourself and your world. It uses unique tools like play, creativity, and physical movement to facilitate the transformation process, so your findings become a part of you.
Think of this program as a playful pilgrimage, where you’ll be walking through undiscovered regions of your inner landscape, meeting surprising figures, and discovering hidden gems along the way.
How It Works
"I could list all the ways Unravel has changed my life, but that'd take at least a 3 hour session to sum up."
-Josefa Fox
Meet Your Guide, Dandan
Top-rated & best-selling online instructor
11 years ago, I was spending my days in a cold fluorescent laboratory, working as a lost, unhappy, and unfulfilled scientist. I had no clue what else I wanted to do. I had very little savings, zero followers, no creative skills, and a baggage of limiting beliefs.
Today, I am a self-taught Emmy-award winning filmmaker, having taught over 100,000 students from around the world in consistently top-rated classes. I spend my days doing what I love, feeling deeply rooted in who I am and clear on my purpose.
In between, I have spent more than a decade wandering around the world, exploring the burning question: who am I? From meditating in monasteries to living in the wild, I have discovered the most potent portals to self discovery.
I have woven the most essential insights and practices of my exploration into this program, so you don’t have to lose years or spend thousands of dollars finding yourself and what you were born to do.
I can’t imagine a more important journey to take. All the steps are laid-out for your exciting new chapter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Unravel Foundations is a self-study track for those who can't make the cohort times and/or prefer to learn at their own pace. With this option, you get immediate access to the course hub with all 12 modules, but there is no community, Dandan's personalized guidance, or interactive live sessions.
You'll be able to upgrade to a future Cohort journey by paying the difference.
Unravel Cohort is my signature immersive experience, where you'll get to journey through the modules with a safe and nurturing community. This makes a massive difference, as your peers will mirror parts of yourself back to you, witness and celebrate your emerging truths, and hold loving space for your healing. You will learn so much from each other and become cherished friends.
Through the Cohort journey, you also will get to deepen your integration of the insights with our vibrant online forum, play and practice authentic relating in our live sessions, and receive my personalized guidance.
If you can, I highly recommend choosing the cohort track.

Like anything, the more you put in, the more you will get out. I recommend aiming for 2 hours (one for the class content and one for the live session) every week. The weekly videos are around ten minutes.
The class content will be released each Monday and a live session will be held every Thursday. If this feels too rushed for you, it’s totally fine! You are able to take it as slowly as needed. There is no such thing as "falling behind." Many of our Unravelers, like Isabelle Leturcq, who had phenomenal results were unable to make some weeks. Even just attending the live sessions had breakthrough effects, as it is rare to interact with people who are finding themselves in such a safe and playful space.

For the Foundations course, you will have 12 monthly live checkpoints with Dandan, which will entail a guided meditation and Q&A session. See this as a rest stop for your travels through the modules.
For the Cohort journey, the live sessions will be a beautiful oasis for your week, where you'll get to connect with other Unravelers, reground, and explore different modalities of self expression. Every Thursday at 1 pm EDT, we will have a live interactive session via Zoom, where we will work with the specific week's module. These 1 hour sessions will be a mix of open sharing, workshops, meditations, and ceremonies. Expect surprises.
Every week for the cohort lives will be different, flowing with the needs of the group. The sessions will be recorded for those who cannot attend.
Nope! There will be beautiful people from all over the globe joining us. We have even had Unravelers from Asia set their alarm clocks to 2 am to join our lives. Talk about showing up for yourself!
Besides a laptop and access to internet, you will need an open mind, a willingness to look at yourself honestly, and an intention to show up for yourself and do inner work- which feels like play in Unravel! I promise, doing this inner work will be totally worth it. It will yield benefits in all areas of your life- you will look back and ask yourself why you didn't do this sooner.
The next Unravel cohort journey officially begins on Monday February 2024 with the first module drop and wraps up on Dec 21st, with our closing ceremony.
Students will have access to the course hub for the lifetime of the course.

Your inherent wildness, regenerated through unraveling, is the deepest source of your imagination and creativity. When you don't do the inner work to reinhabit your unique truth, your work tends to look like everyone else's. Yes, you can discover who you are through your creative work. It's a beautiful two way passage. But, it's more direct to discover what truly matters to you, what is your unique frequency, and let your creative work be an overflow of that frequency. When you do that, your creative work turns from being an uphill battle to a downward flow.
For you creatives who work with people, unraveling is essential. When you are able to show up in your truth, you invite your subjects to show up in their truth. The people you work with will mirror the depth you bring.

I wholeheartedly believe that self discovery is a lifelong process. You are a continually changing, multifaceted being, and there are so many beautiful angles to explore who you are. Since Unravel touches many areas, most of them not mainstream, I believe this journey will take you into uncharted areas of your inner landscape. And if you have already come across a specific area, I believe it'll present a new facet and deepen your integration. Wherever you are on your path, I invite you to come with a Beginner's mind.
Hear from our Unravelers who have spent 10+ years on the path of self discovery.

I’m so happy to hear that. I want you to know that you are on the right path and that your journey of self discovery is worth all the investments you will put into it (time, energy, money, care…). Like bamboo, which only grows fast and strong because of its deep system of roots, this inner work will form the foundation for your flourishing. By taking the time now, you will save yourself time from mediocre work, bad decisions, and unaligned relationships that do not bring you joy. The return on investment here is priceless.
I want you to know that you can move forward with confidence and clarity. You deserve to live a life you love. I will share as much goodness and knowledge as I possibly can in this course, and you are encouraged to ask me anything as we dive into the content together.
