WITH LOVE, DANIELLE
Danielle LaPorte
A one woman show about self-realization from Danielle LaPorte, a member of Oprah’s Super Soul 100 and creator of The Desire Map. How do you create a spirituality that’s more rock n’ roll than oppressive, turn your anxiety into power, and live more deeply but lighten up? Danielle keeps it practical while riffing on the divine—from compassion and self-help fatigue, to sex, joy, and serving the world. She is, as Eve Ensler describes, “a force field of energy, wonder, humor, and love”, and her authenticity will have you feeling a little less crazy, full of possibility, and clearly part of the solution.

Thursday is All About Expansion
This is part six of an eight-part series on the energetics of the days of the week, and today we’re hookin’ our wagons to Jupiter. Thursday is ruled by Jupiter—expansive, abundant, lucky (if there is such a thing). Jupiter energy is about vastness, generosity, and selflessness. When we honour Thursday’s expansive power, we can use it to teach, to reach out, to be generous—and more wisdom and abundance flows in. The Life Area that pairs with Thursdays is Mind + Emotions. This is the day to think higher thoughts, to neutralize emotions, to focus on learning, sharing wisdom, and expanding through service. Expansion energy in action. The key to working with Thursday’s Jupiter vibe? Selflessness. Expansion happens more naturally when we focus on serving others. When you come from a place of seva—of loving service—the abundance flows back to you naturally. Generous people always have more to give. In this episode: Why Jupiter makes Thursday the day of abundance and expansion The Life Area of Mind + Emotions and how to work with it The best activities to schedule on Thursdays How Team D uses Jupiter’s expansive energy for classes, workshops and live events MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The 2026 Centered Planner VIP List—available exclusively through presale starting Sunday, August 24!

Forget Hump Day — On Wednesdays We Play
Every day of the week is governed by a planetary energy—and Wednesday belongs to Mercury. Mercury is spacious, fluid, and all about communication, ideas and expansion. In part 5 of an 8-part series on the energetics of the days of the week, Danielle suggests a rebrand for Wednesday: Forget hump day. Who wants to live a life where the middle of the week is something to “get over”? No, babe. Wednesday is expansive. Pair Mercury’s vibe with the Life Area of PLAY—creativity, hobbies, travel, and the juiciest of rest—and you’ve got the best day of the week to broadcast your brilliance. In this episode: Learn why Wednesday syncs with the Life Area of PLAY to inspire creativity, hobbies and travel plans Why Wednesdays are ideal for sharing your wisdom with the world How Mercury’s vibe amplifies your message How Team D uses Wednesdays for deep work and launches What to know about Mercury Retrograde’s effect on your Wednesday flow MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: GetHeartCentered.com—Download the FREE Astro + Events calendar and sync your plans with the planets The 2026 Heart Centered Planner VIP List Follow + Subscribe to Danielle on Substack for weekly essays + more Join the Heart Centered Collective Energetics of the Days of the Week—catch up on the series!

Tuesday’s Fiery Energy is for Getting Sh*t Done
Every day of the week is governed by a planetary energy—and Tuesday belongs to Mars. Mars is fiery. It’s strategic. It’s a little spicy. And when you know how to work with that energy, Tuesday becomes a power move—not a burnout trap. This is part 4 of an 8-part series on the energetics of the days of the week. In this episode, Danielle dives into the willfulness and combative potential of Mars—and how to use Tuesday’s charge to pull things off, without blowing things up. She breaks down why Tuesday is paired with the Life Area of Livelihood (your work, money, service, leadership), and why planning, not launching, is the best use of this Mars day. You’ll hear how Team D uses Tuesdays as buffer days for strategy, director meetings, and creative jamming—plus, how Danielle preps her energy to hit “go” on Wednesdays. PLUS: a sneak peek of the 2026 Heart Centered Planner glow up—you’ll want to be on the VIP list!

Monday: The Moon’s Day
Every day of the week is governed by a planetary energy, and each day has its own vibration according to the planet that looks after that day of the week. The idea here is that we’re aware of that energy—and we work with it. MONDAYS are ruled by the moon, and lunar energy is shadowy, emotional stuff. It’s watery, with unconscious energy coming to the surface. But instead of getting down on ourselves about it, we flow with it. In this episode, part 3 of an 8 part series on the energetics of the days of the week, Danielle breaks down why Monday is paired with the body Life Area, and shares something that might surprise (and delight) you: Monday is not the best day for meetings! This counterculture (but not counterintuitive) approach—being gentle with Monday’s energy, and flowing with it—will change your whole week. In this episode: Why lunar energy calls for patience and mindfulness How to journal about emotions that surface on moon days Why Mondays meetings are a no-go on Team D How Danielle sets her body up for success on Mondays The truth: Monday energy is all about being gentle MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Download the FREE Astro + Events calendar in the Danielle LaPorte network on Mighty Networks The 2026 Heart Centered Planner—Join the VIP list!

Make Mercury More Freddie and Less Retrograde
Mercury retrograde gets a bad rap, but it’s actually a great opportunity for cleaning up and cleaning out. The energy supports you to clean stuff up. Instead of working against it, we use this shadowy time to clean up the emotional clutter in our own shadow and subconscious. It's brilliant! This week, Danielle shares two decades of Mercury retrograde experiments (including surveying cell phone customer service reps about their ticket volume—spoiler: it spikes). She talks about why Instagram girlies who freak out about Mercury retrograde are missing the point. This cosmic cleanup period is prime time for letting go and slowing down, to purge and clean out your drawers. Crunchy emotions? Feel them and let them pass through. Be mindful about how we communicate. We can use this energy to create more space and clarity in our lives. In this episode: 2025 Mercury retrograde dates (including the shadow periods that nobody talks about—one to two weeks before and after retrograde) What it actually means (and why it’s not all chaos) A spiritual perspective on why the “backwards” energy is actually a blessing Why merc retro is the best time for letting go—emotionally, physically, digitally Danielle’s “things I will NOT do” list: signing contracts, booking flights, making travel plans Why she burns her journals every 3 to 5 years The Gayatri Mantra as a vibrational tool for this season MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Download the FREE Astro + Events calendar in the Danielle LaPorte network on Mighty Networks Write + Burn Ritual inside the Heart Centered Collective REGULATE TO RELATE Masterclass—balance your nervous system to heal your relationships Infusion Sessions—One-on-one prosperity consciousness mentoring with Danielle Follow + Subscribe to Danielle on Substack for weekly essays + more

My Anxiety and the Art of Faking It
“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle...” Behind every perfect photo is a story you don’t see. (photo linked below) This week, Danielle is sharing the real story behind a polished interview with Chase Jarvis—a “successful” professional moment that, behind the scenes, was complete with anxiety medication, heartbreak, mould poisoning and exhaustion. This is the truth about what it looks like to show up when you’re falling apart. And while it’s easy to be judgmental of others, what everyone really needs is the compassion impulse—the assumption that everyone is going through something and filtering it in their own way. In this episode: The real story behind a picture-perfect interview moment Why “don’t believe what everyone’s filtered life looks like” goes deeper than social media The energy cost of judging others’ highlight reels How to activate your compassion impulse instead of criticism Pro tip: when to mute or unfollow accounts that trigger judgment MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: THE PHOTO Danielle’s Interview with Chase Jarvis REGULATE TO RELATE Masterclass—balance your nervous system to heal your relationships Infusion Sessions—One-on-one prosperity consciousness mentoring with Danielle Follow + Subscribe to Danielle on Substack for weekly essays + more Join the Heart Centered Collective

The Proper Use of Denial
In this week’s episode, Danielle talks about one of her favourite A Course in Miracles teachings about the proper use of denial. From toxic media to people who hate on your happiness—you’ll hear how to cut off negativity’s power source without turning into a spiritual bypasser. She’s sharing exact phrases that work, why intention matters, and how staying in your highest vibration seals off the access points to darkness. Because navigating the darkness and the light can be strenuous business. This is key: don’t give the darkness too much energy or thought. In this episode: Specific declarations you can use when negativity tries to hijack your energy Why giving darkness too much thought actually feeds it (and what to do instead) How to see clearly without anchoring worry to your mind The difference between spiritual bypassing and strategic light warrior moves MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: REGULATE TO RELATE Masterclass—heal your nervous system to heal your relationships Infusion Sessions—One-on-one prosperity consciousness mentoring with Danielle Follow + Subscribe to Danielle on Substack for weekly essays + more Join the Heart Centered Collective Take the free Stressed to Blessed Quiz

Go Where the Love Is. Because Faking It Will Drain You.
It’s deeply natural to deeply desire deep connection. In fact, we are physiologically wired for it. But when our nervous system is out of whack, we struggle to find resonance—and end up in fawning, transactional patterns that drain our life force. This week, Danielle is talking about the connection between your nervous system and your relationships. Because when you balance your nervous system, you have better relationships. She’s sharing the how-tos for getting balanced and exploring what your nervous system has to do with your emotional intimacy with everyone in your life. In this episode: The difference between resonant relationships and fawning—and why faking connection costs you your life force How to know when you’re in true heart-to-heart connection The guiding question to create resonance MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: REGULATE TO RELATE Masterclass—heal your nervous system to heal your relationships Infusion Sessions—One-on-one prosperity consciousness mentoring with Danielle Follow + Subscribe to Danielle on Substack for weekly essays + more Join The Heart Centered Collective Take the free Stressed to Blessed Quiz

It All Started With a Ouija Board… and Went South From There
Danielle has never talked publicly about this. In her 20s, she was channelling “guides”—a term she uses very loosely. It all started with a Ouija board. Friends were messing with it, and she got in on the action. It’s a story about feeling special, getting in too deep, and discovering that “just because a disembodied energy comes through from the ‘other side’ doesn’t mean that it’s higher vibration than someone on the Earth plane.” It’s a story that may change how you think about spiritual guidance. In this episode: How to tell the difference between guidance and spiritual deception The question that will help you discern real wisdom from spiritual BS Why being psychic doesn’t automatically make someone enlightened What your nervous system knows that your mind doesn’t MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Infusion Sessions—High-ticket, high-value 1:1 business mentoring with Danielle The Archives: Read on Substack Join The Heart Centered Collective Take the free Stressed to Blessed Quiz
