Danielle LaPorte: Only You Can End Your Suffering – How To Be Loving, Despite Adversity & Pain #433

Danielle LaPorte is back on the show this week, having experienced a (failed) cancellation attempt and living to tell the world of her learnings from it. The truth is, as much as the cult-like mentality wants to paint things as black and white, they almost never are.

In this one, Danielle distinguishes between the hard truths and hypocritical falsehoods that made themselves clear during the process – and where she acknowledges gray areas in between. As a global thought leader on spiritualism and personal evolution, there’s no one better to break down this toxic new appendage on modern society.

The topic brings us, inevitably, back to the cycle of trauma and healing, which unearths another deeply personal story I had yet to share on the podcast before today. Heads up, this episode was conducted more in the spirit of a dialogue rather than a classic Q&A interview, but I think you’ll enjoy the, at times, very raw back and forth that Danielle and I share.

You can access her many teachings via The Heart Centered Leadership Program and Heart Centered Membership. And be sure to pre-order her new book, How To Be Loving, which expands upon many of the important themes we discuss today.
