If running your own business has always been on your heart, your transition from a j-o-b to earning on your own might be as dramatic as mine was. Or it might be a softer, more gradual transition. It doesn’t matter, really. What matters is that you use your dreams as fuel to move you forward. I created The Fire Starter Sessions audio course for navigating and encouragement.

Here's what you get:

• 16 audio sessions:  To turn the heat up on your desires.
• 19 downloadable / printable worksheets.  To help you dive deeeep into the material - and fan the flames in your heart.
• 19 worksheet audio files.  I walk you through my colossal and microscopic love-soaked questions.

The sessions:

• Session 1 - Declare your superpowers.
• Session 2 - The metrics of ease.
• Session 3 - The strategy of desire.
• Session 4 - The burning questions.
• Session 5 - Facing forward.
• Session 6 - Visioneering.
• Session 7 - Fear + other tough stuff.
• Session 8 - Comforting failure.
• Session 9 - No, thank you. Yes, please.
• Session 10 - Make stuff that feels good to make.
• Session 11 - How you show up in the world.

• Session 13 - Money: more is more. Enough is plenty.
• Session 14 - Supporting characters.
• Session 15 - Be the giver.
• Session 16 - Just start. Now.

Make future plans from an expanded perspective, not a limited past—from clarity, not conflicted desires.

How’s that sound? This is not your grandpa’s “year in review” process. This is a heart-centered recapitulation process. And it could make a significant difference in how you plan what’s ahead. 

THE THEORY: If we want to live PROactively, instead of reactively—then before we make more plans, we have to reflect on what’s actually been unfolding for us. We need time to integrate experiences so we build on our strengths, not faulty logic. Then we go for it.

The Free + Clear program guides you to use your heart and mind to reflect on your past year, then use that wisdom to do a life re-set. You get informed on your interior landscape. You assess, you take what you want, and let go of the rest. And then you make better decisions about where you want to go from here. And by “better” I mean more intentional, more joy-focused, even more courageous. This is fun. I love this program. And I do it every year for myself (and have been for the last five years.)

Free + Clear is about: 

• reframing obligations into conscious choices. 
• shifting resentments into empowerment.
• letting go of what isn’t serving you anymore.
• putting systems of wellness + happiness into place.

What you'll get:

• The Full Video Course. 10 videos. 15 worksheets (printable if you want to take them to go). 11 embodied rituals for letting go, creative renewal, and sticking by your commitments. Catharsis and clarity at YOUR pace.
• Part 1: Retrospection
• Part 2: Conscious Gratitude
• Part 3: Pleasure
• Part 4: Reset
• Lifetime Access. When your to-do list starts to feel HEAVY, it’s time to pause. Not for lunch. But to open up this program and use it to reflect (for real) on your recent past so that you can find better ALIGNMENT.

This is an intelligent and spiritual excavation process. And I’ll be guiding you through each step.

A heart-centered approach to clear thinking + serving with joy.

Do your personal Desire Mapping with Danielle. Up close, poetic and practical—one deep-diving module at a time.

Filmed at a retreat center in Topanga, Danielle works many fresh elements into The Desire Map methodology—new Q&As and explorations that aren’t in the original book. Sequenced for learning, and aligned WITH A PRINTED WORKBOOK, this is one of our richest teaching tools.

THE THEORY: What old-world healers have known, science is now proving. Our emotions lead our biology—having a profound effect on our heart rhythms, brain chemistry, and the myriad of systems they control. Stress brings chaos in the heart, positivity brings calm and steadiness. When we "think" with our hearts, we build our lives from a cellular level. It's the ultimate self-agency—and it generates what we're all wanting: compassion, CLARITY, and ultimately, a more loving existence. 

"LaPorte’s joie de vivre is contagious. With an organic elegance, The Desire Map couples our primal desire-energy with the inborn intelligence of our feelings. The result? Optimizing our time on Earth." – Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith

“I wish I had The Desire Map when I was a teen. Core Desired Feelings… joy, freedom, confidence, peace, clarity. Same as now and I’m 50! I didn't know my Core Desired Feelings could be a compass for the life I wanted to live back then. What a gift Desire Map would have been. Grateful to have it now.” – Autumn S.

• The Full Video Course!
• Part 1: DISCOVERING Your Core Desired Feelings
• Part 2: CLARIFYING with Your Core Desired Feelings

YOUR BIG BEAUTIFUL BOOK PLAN is a digital program for people who want to get their word into the world—where it belongs. Book proposals are to books as business plans are to businesses: essential. 

A book is always more than just a book. Much more. Writing a book could direct the course of your career for the rest of your life. It could lead to infinitely important connections, multiple revenue streams, spin off products, international relations. It could send more business your way. It could pay for a trip to Tahiti or just pay the rent. It could change one person’s life for the better. It could start a revolution. You need a plan.

Linda Sivertsen, aka "The Book Mama" and I launched this guide years ago and we're happy to say that many many book proposals, book deals and content calendars have been fueled by this plan. In some cases, people use this and realize that they not only have a book, but they have multiple digital offerings in what they thought was going to be a published book.

The industry is always changing and social media is evolving at breakneck speed. A good book plan will always have the spine and objectives. We hope this helps you in innumerable ways, to see your way to all kinds of creations.
