EP 299: How To Be Loving with Danielle LaPorte
Oct 03, 2022While there will always be something new to learn and explore in business, there’s absolutely one truth I know about business that will never change – and it’s that as an entrepreneur, personal development is the most important element of becoming a strong leader for your company.
In this episode of Spa Marketing Made Easy, we’re turning toward the inner layers of our minds and hearts to delve deeper into how to be loving and what it means to be a heart-centered leader.
And here to share her wisdom is Danielle LaPorte, a prolific writer, creator, and entrepreneur who has built a wildly successful brand and business that aligns with how Danielle wants to show up in the world with her light, gifts, and spirit.
Yes, this episode definitely gravitates away from more of the tactical and tangible elements of business, and more into the sinewy and visceral elements of entrepreneurship.
And in case you’re not familiar with Danielle’s background, she’s a member of Oprah’s SuperSoul 100—a group who, in Oprah Winfrey’s words, “is uniquely connecting the world together with a spiritual energy that matters.” And she’s also the former director of a future studies think tank in Washington, DC, where she managed a team creating global scenarios.
Danielle is also the author of The Fire Starter Sessions, The Desire Map, White Hot Truth, and producer of dozens of meditation kits and online programs for spiritual support.
These days she speaks, writes and creates around the topic of the intelligence of the heart, and in her most recent book, “How To Be Loving… when your heart is breaking open and the world is waking up,” she shares a nuanced perspective on the life changing power of Self Compassion, shadow work, and being more receptive to Higher Guidance.
Consider it a guide on how to use the genius of your heart to create conditions for healing, and consider this episode the prologue for the heart-centered Spa CEO.
Tune in as we discuss:
- How to see the story behind the story and begin looking and noticing yourself and those around you with compassion
- What the heart is wired for and how we can lean into and open ourselves up to Self Compassion, shadow work and being more receptive to Higher Guidance
- Understanding the seasonal shifts between growth and pausing and how they are in service to one another, especially as an entrepreneur
- How to release from goals and set your sights on the bigger vision using your heart as a compass
