Danny D is Letting It Ride

Life is going to throw you some curveballs. How you deal with them often shapes your perspective, while focusing your energy on what truly matters to you.

It’s a philosophy our guest and professional 3D artist Danny D shares in episode 78 of Let It Ride. His journey to long hair was beset with tribulations, from battling through the struggles of making it as a professional artist, to getting blindsided with a serious heart condition.

Danny D is a maker of things, from decorative plaster and sculpture to modeling and historical restoration. He uses his hands and his imagination to shape and create, and with a personal taste for darkness, horror, gothic and metal, he may have inspired some new horror-themed hair ties.

Through his personal and professional work, one fixture has remained consistent in his mind: I will prevail. His spirit and resolve to let it ride carried him through his journey to long hair and discovering his true, unapologetic self.

In this inspiring episode Danny D drops some great messages about character, pushing through life's obstacles and being yourself.
