The women behind Crowned

Your guide & DJ

Daniela

Daniela leads Crowned from the first flower to the last song: the crown-making, the connection circle, the posing workshop and the dance party. She brings every flower and material with her.

Daniela Francesca is a DJ, retreat facilitator, community builder and experience designer, and her motto is simple: making space for magic.

Her dharma is gathering and empowering women. Since an awakening in 2020 drew her to the feminine energies of Shakti, Green Tara, Hathor and Lakshmi, everything she creates has followed that path: rooms where women feel safe enough to be seen, to soften and to rise into who they truly are.

Our vision

The Rising of the Goddess

Every woman carries a goddess inside her. She is there under the schedules, the roles and the mirrors we rush past. When one woman remembers her, the women around her remember too. That is how the goddess rises.

Crowned exists to celebrate and empower women. We gather you in a circle, put flowers in your hands and a camera in front of you, and cheer until you see what we see: your true radiance and your true essence, looking right back at you.

Adorn

Create something beautiful with your own hands, then wear it like the crown it is.

Celebrate

Be witnessed and cheered by a circle of women, and cheer for every one of them.

Rise

See your radiance on camera, and carry it home into the rest of your life.

Our mission

To gather women, celebrate them out loud, and help each one see the goddess she already is.

One crown, one circle, one photograph at a time.

You were always her.
