Do you struggle with self-worth? 

Is your nervous system constantly in overdrive?

Do you feel guilty whenever you’re not working, and find it a real battle to switch off and rest?

If you can relate to any of the above, prepare for an enlightening conversation with the one and only Danielle LaPorte.

It’s been nearly ten years since her mega-successful book ‘The Desire Map’ was published. In this deeply intimate and inspiring episode, you’re going to hear firsthand how her thinking has changed since then and the huge uplevels she’s made to her spiritual philosophy, her relationship with work, and her approach to healing.

Tune in to hear Danielle’s remarkable insights on: why she nearly walked away from her career to grow potatoes (this story is wild, you have to hear it!), how to make peace with rest, redefining self-worth in a world that so often ties our value to productivity, what every parent needs to know about teaching their child true self-love, why the day of the guru is over, how to reclaim your agency when it comes to healing, and her recent roller coaster journey of dealing with heavy metal and mold toxicity and the epic techniques she’s using to detox her body.

Ultimately, it’s not just a conversation, it’s a masterclass in personal transformation.
