WITH LOVE, DANIELLE

Catch that subject line? It's not your relationship. It's you. Slightly provocative? Yes. Likely true on the deepest level? Also yes. Almost everything that I've had to apologize for in a relationship––or that I've wanted an apology for, had to do with my nervous system being too jacked or too drained. The current human reality (you, me, the planet…) We're generally dysregulated, out of balance. We're fried. Frayed. AND… We are Love. We want to show up as Love. We want to receive Love. We want to give Love. And whether we're conscious of it or not, we know on some level that our relationships are THE vehicle for healing, self-awareness, for getting closer to our Higher Self… It ALL happens in relationships. Episode #91 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is the third in a 3 part conversation on nervous system regulation. It's about learning how to meet our triggers (hello, Inner Child and everyone in the world who's triggering my Inner Child.) And then processing those triggers more mindfully, often physically, so that we don't have to owe––or demand more apologies. In this session we explore: Why we keep trying to solve the wrong problems in our relationships The relational symptoms of nervous system imbalance (overstaying, bickering, the silent treatment and the blame game…) Simple ways to get centered in heated or heartbreaking interactions How to get OUT of the loop of unhealthy behaviors/situations and a dysregulated nervous system––so we can unwire lifelong default stress responses that hinder love, intimacy, expression, and intuition. When the nervous system is strong, then our relating is strong. Less wigging, more loving. To less friction and more freedom.

Let's talk about stress, baby. Let's talk about nerves and mind loops and … relaxation. As always when we go into the shadowy stuff, I've got some light-backed solutions. In this episode of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE: 9 ways we create unnecessary stress –– the stuff that drains, dysregulates, grinds on our nervous systems. Holistic suggestions for interrupting stress cycles like thought loops, self-shame + blame, criticism, complaining… How to become the parent of your stress and meet it with Love and Compassionate authority. This is the second in a series of 3 conversations about nervous system healing. If nervous system regulation were the #1 priority for every being on the planet, well that would change… everything for everyone wouldn't it? I think our divine assignment is to create conditions of healing for ourselves. That's it. And it starts with steady love and common sense for stress way less. * ICYMI here's: 4 Types of Stress Responses–what's yours?

Here's where I think we're at: The past few years on the planet Earth have done a number on our nervous systems. A lot of us are experiencing adrenal fatigue, waves of anxiety, and difficulty sleeping. A general malaise of despair. And it turns out that all of this was a precursor to these last few weeks and months of warful insanity. And whether YOU'RE conscious of what the stress is doing to you––your NERVOUS SYSTEM is very aware. I think that... If each of us focused on regulating our nervous system, it could change the entire world. It starts with knowing your default stress response. In this session of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, I quiz you on your stress style––who wins for best stressed?! And then do my best to offer solutions. ARE YOU A FIGHTER? FLIGHTER? FREEZER or FAWNER? Once you're clear on that, you can see the path to healing. I share 11 beliefs on healing––specifically for our nervous systems. There was a time when my cortisol levels were jacked and everything else was tanked. I'm giving you some very practical things I did that helped me heal. A better you in a bonkers world depends on steady love and your nervous system. - This episode's LOVE NOTE (free prayers, printables, pointers) is a simple before & after exercise to check in with your nervous system and plan for brighter days.

Hello Loves, Let me dial you back in time a bit… my birthday is May 25. I woke up this year and thought, "I don't want to live and work this way anymore." Who's got cake?! I'd fallen into a pretty classic trap of working FOR my business instead of the business working for my LIFE. I needed to get out of the tasky tasks (read: draining) and back to my deep creativity. Because If I'm not living from my full, lit up heart center, I'm not serving at full capacity. So. I made a leap. Quantum. I got super clear on: My zone of genius––doing what only *I* can do. Where we're going to have the most impact in the world, not "maybe" but CLEARLY. Investing in my purpose-driven company. And then I went allllll in. And there was some shaking it up. Happy Birthday. Fast forward to the present… My 10 year business is now a start up. High enthusiasm. Agility as a superpower. A gorgeous chaos. A LOT OF CREATIVE DEEPENING. Doubling down on a heart centered way of doing business = more freedom + more REACH AND IMPACT — for everyone involved. In this very special episode of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, I am pulling back the curtain on: How I took my business (and life) down to the studs Why it's one of the most heart centered moves I've ever made How we turned alignment into action, organizational + business model changes, AND saved $30,000 (almost) overnight All the details on our (long asked for!) HEART CENTERED MASTERMIND! This is inner circle-level stuff. Everything is changing for the better. So. Much. To. Tell. You. With Love!

Hello Loves… I can be having a conversation about a friend's dating life, or what we're having for dinner and in the back of my heart-mind, I'm thinking about Israeli and Palestinian families. Guilt can accompany some of my daily happinesses… I'm planning a wedding while there's a war. I pray more fiercely. I'm more tired than I should be. Whatever "should be" means in dark times like these. I think about FAITH––what do we put Faith in when there's atrocity? Or when our personal life is so challenging that we can't even think about what's happening outside of ourselves? And what should we be letting go of so that we can be more graceful in all the fractiousness? I am always wondering, What should I RENUNCIATE? Faith and renunciation are loaded words for some of us, and these are charged concepts in times like these. So… let's go there. WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, Eps #87 is a fresh round of spiritual definitions in under 30 minutes: Embodiment. A consistency in thoughts, speech and action. Faith. Knowing that the light exists, even when it's dark. Renunciation. Letting go of meaningless pursuits and things, that block your connection to your purpose. The Lower Self and the Higher Self: the unhealed self (aka ego) and the Soul… your True Nature. Remember: Your Soul is always calling the shots. Lean in to it.

My Loves, I was in NYC last week and the theme was EXPANSION! ANd more EXPANSION. My Mr. proposed! Yes yes yes to life partnership. He is deep and beautiful and wise and I've been ALL IN since about month two of being with him. Knew it. We're not sure if we're going to get hitched at city hall in our jeans, or throw a festival. But we know it's all ours to DEFINE. I also joined a new literary agency family of philosophical go-getters (my favorite combination) and we are redefining what it means for me to write, record and create for the next decade and beyond. These big moves and mergers are happening because I'm very clear how I define success––which has taken a LOT of REDEFINING. I've let go of a lot of identities labels. I've learned what I value most. And My spiritual commitment has helped me be discerning. And that brings me to another one of my favorite combinations: DISCERNMENT and the POWER OF WORDS. In this week's WITH LOVE, DANIELLE (Eps #86) I'm dissecting some of-misconstrued "spiritual" terms: Spirituality: It's undefinable, actually. But I think it's simply, "the practice of thinking with your heart." This is not quite as simple as I make it sound. So please listen in for the break down. Spiritual Bypassing: Where you put a spiritual spin on a "negative" experience to avoid uncomfortable feelings. "Non spiritual" feelings… you know that trick? All seekers become pro's at this until we see how it's holding us back. Spiritual Glamor: When you mix a spiritual PoV with the ego's need to be "special". For example: when one regards their spiritual experience as a qualification for special treatment, or how some folks always find a way to insert their esoteric resume into the conversation… Conscience: You've got one, everyone's got one… Light Guilt + Shadow Guilt. There's useful guilt and drag-you-down guilt. How to tell when your conscience is guiding you or your ego is trippin'... And, Detachment: Less clinging. More trusting. I'm getting into the how-to's of this spiritual art form. Our definitions of spirituality and success define our LIVES. So more consciousness, truth-rooted definitions make for more conscious moves and mergers in our lives. Let's define and refine… This episode's LOVE NOTE (free prayers, printables, pointers) is the Dedication of Merit. Keep it on your phone. P.S. Connect with me on IG ! I'd love to hear your thoughts on Spiritual Bypassing and Glamour… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We all get out of alignment with our inner truth. It's the human dance. The thing is: The inconsistency has a ripple effect. When we are in cognitive dissonance– we don't hear our Higher Self clearly. We're unable to focus and move forward with glide. Ideally… What we believe is embodied in our thoughts, speech, action. We're walking the talk. Here's Episode #85 WITH LOVE, DANIELLE: How we get distracted from the ways we really want to live our life.Hint: the heart centered kind of life. How we need to clear out "all or nothing" statements How to clear the distracting static. Less noise = greater concentration AND greater concentration on what truly matters increases the chances that you will manifest the good stuff. The takeaway: When you turn on the intelligence of your heart, you uncondition your mind. When we heal our cognitive dissonance, we learn what it really means to become whole. And, I've left you with a few tools. This episode's LOVE NOTE has an exercise with steps to align with your higher desire. No judginess, all Love. Light a candle, set the vibe, and get to it. My Meditation Library: https://daniellelaporte.com/listen-meditations/.I do the same practice for many months in order to go deeper, ask fewer questions, and really get into alignment with heart and mind to dissolve any dissonance. Craving more? In my HEART CENTERED MEMBERSHIP I have a whole library of mantra and meditative Playlists, among other tools and treasures, blessed up by our team energy healer, V.S.

The seeds of our desires get watered by… our focus! But manifestation is a balancing act of intense focus and relaxed Faith. We're going a few layers deep about: How to increase the INTENSITY of your focus––which directly correlates to your creative power and ability to make things happen. The best use of free will––we get to choose the thoughts we believe, and the ones we refuse. When we choose our thoughts more intentionally, we get more of what things we want. What's the difference between FOCUS and CONCENTRATION? Well, focus with me for the 35 minutes of this podcast and we'll get into it! Focus is a learned skill that we can strengthen. I'll take you through a short meditative experience, then we end with a simple practice you can do daily to improve your concentration. And this episode includes LOVE NOTE tucked into our ever-growing free love notes library! Timestamps: 2:58: How positive and negative memories impact manifestation 6:14: How to focus, the benefits of concentration skills 9:32: What it means to "focus on Love" 13:03: Why the intensity of our focus matters 15:08: Why we repeat the same lessons over again 18:18: Concentration is not about "narrowing your focus" 21:31: When we're focused on the end result, we're able to foresee the steps to get us there 25:09: A simple concentration-building exercise for you All for Love, Danielle P.S. October 12th's episode will feature the playback of our recent OPEN HOUSE EVENT, a behind the scenes look at everything Heart Centered, from the Leadership at Team D!

We don't actually need a pep talk about our worthiness. Because…We're all "worthy." And the "worthiness" questioning is, actually, absurd. No one needs to quantify, or qualify themselves for Love. Not one Soul, ever. We don't have to establish if we're deserving of more ease, happiness, or Loving Kindness. Here it is: when we spend energy questioning and bidding to see if we're valued or worthy…it distracts us from healing. All that asking and validation seeking, actually creates MORE confusion and perceived woundedness inside of us. Imagine you're a billionaire - and you kept asking everyone around you. Or, a god of your understanding: "am I rich?", "am I rich?"- it just creates more: Confusion, agitation, perpetuates more striving… It's Episode #83 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE! Let's get in there: What happens when we become more blind to our inherent, DIVINE WORTH? (We spin.) Why do we believe we need to earn our worth? And, When we find ourselves asking ourselves or others (typically unconsciously) if we're worthy or valuable, instead, let's wonder, "Why did I ask that?" It's a popcorn trail to your pain and power. Here's a life shifting question to apply, DAILY: What does my unhealed self need right now? (aka, your Inner Child) This episode includes a short visualization exercise that I guide and it's simple enough to remember that you can take it with you. I also did a printable LOVE NOTE for you to save. We have been in this worthy/unworthy dialogue for eons, it is part of the human dance––so we have some stuff to unpack. LISTEN HERE or wherever you like to tune in to the pods. WITH LOVE, Danielle In this episode I give a journaling/thought prompt. You can find it and other saveables in my LOVE NOTES section!
