We’ve had multi-million dollar launches and we’ve operated in the red. Deep collaborations, and solo ventures. We’ve created a #1 podcast, pioneered heart-based pricing policies, raised major bucks for charities… and learned from some expensive mistakes.

Team D is one of the best in the online personal development space. In these video-based Virtual Business Retreats, we’ll give you three behind-the-scenes tours: how to run a heart-centered launch (from ideation to celebrating sales); how to produce a podcast that gets attention; and how to create healthy systems and culture on your team.

BENEFITS

Feel bolder, clearer, and more inspired by your business.
What is your purpose and vision? Inner attunement before outer attainment. We’ll show you how our vision-driven campaigns and offerings yield the most fulfillment.

Heart-centered solutions to real problems.

Our community sent us their burning questions, and we crafted our curriculum to address common blocks: fear of failure, how to launch when starting from zero, marketing that feels genuine, staying consistent, inspiring a team, how to promote in a crisis… Our retreats are part mindset, part mystic, part how-to. We teach in a behind-the-scenes style—sharing our wins AND our mistakes, so you’ll learn a few things that you won’t find in most business courses. You’ll walk away with the confidence and clarity to lead, make, and market in ways that are true to your heart.

Save yourself a lot of Googling, and cash.
Over the years, we’ve vetted hundreds of apps, software, services, and tools. You’ll get lists of all our favourite resources: podcasting, social media, design, project management, and more.

She’s a world-class Integral Master Coach, and former President of Integral Coaching Canada. Chela helped us steer clear of burnout, and put new systems into place for team meetings and interaction. Danielle and Chela will cover:

• Company culture: What is it? How is it created?
• Emergent leadership: Leading yourself and others. What is your current approach to your work? And how does it further the goals of your business? Your life? (Or not.) How do you know when something needs to change?

How to melt self judgement and make way for higher vibration ways of living.
A 90-minute pre-recorded online class with Danielle.
PLUS! Practice Deck + Audio Blessing.

Compassion isn’t a “soft skill.” It’s courageous, it’s very thorough, and it changes how we walk through life. So all that striving that we do (richer, thinner, smarter, better better better)… that anxiousness dissolves with the practice of self compassion. And we land on adaptability and freedom.

We’re not taught this is in school, and it most definitely doesn't come with an MBA. But Compassion creates the cohesion that our psyches and societies are crying for.

Compassion IS a skill—of the heart-mind. And we’re here to cultivate it.

. . . . .

SELF COMPASSION THAT EXTENDS TO OTHERS
Class overview

We’re stepping out of the feedback loops that keep us striving (and loathing), so we can get present with LIFE FORCE.

During this 90-minute pre-recorded online class with Danielle, we’ll roll through:

1. How to prevent self love from being co-opted by ego-driven scripts of self hate.
2. How to use our struggles to generate higher solutions.
3. Finding the Divine intelligence behind every action and reaction (yea, even the “unevolved” ones).
4. How to use our judgements to cultivate unity consciousness.
5. How your aversion to inner neediness may keep you stuck—and how to dissolve that (which is how wholeness happens)!

FEATURED EXERCISE: The Golden Child + The Needy Child. We’re loving our inner neediness just as much as our inner achiever. Giving our Shadow the same attention as we do our Light. This reframe is a big energy liberator!

YOU GET A COMPASSION CLASS DECK

• The Golden Child + The Needy Child Exercise—embrace what you neglect the most about yourself.
• Personal to Transpersonal Pain Exercise—clear self pity, or fear, and move into unity-thinking.
• Holding Polarization Exercise—to diffuse heated conversations and find common ground.
• Virtue Blessing Practice—energize your mind + body with the frequency of Compassion.
• Virtue Embodiment Exercise—bring Compassion into your thought patterns.
• Reflection notes on Compassion—great for a morning/evening inspiration read.
• A Metta Bhavana Prayer card for daily practice.

A heart-centered approach to clear thinking + serving with joy.

Do your personal Desire Mapping with Danielle. Up close, poetic and practical—one deep-diving module at a time.

Filmed at a retreat center in Topanga, Danielle works many fresh elements into The Desire Map methodology—new Q&As and explorations that aren’t in the original book. Sequenced for learning, and aligned WITH A PRINTED WORKBOOK, this is one of our richest teaching tools.

THE THEORY: What old-world healers have known, science is now proving. Our emotions lead our biology—having a profound effect on our heart rhythms, brain chemistry, and the myriad of systems they control. Stress brings chaos in the heart, positivity brings calm and steadiness. When we "think" with our hearts, we build our lives from a cellular level. It's the ultimate self-agency—and it generates what we're all wanting: compassion, CLARITY, and ultimately, a more loving existence. 

"LaPorte’s joie de vivre is contagious. With an organic elegance, The Desire Map couples our primal desire-energy with the inborn intelligence of our feelings. The result? Optimizing our time on Earth." – Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith

“I wish I had The Desire Map when I was a teen. Core Desired Feelings… joy, freedom, confidence, peace, clarity. Same as now and I’m 50! I didn't know my Core Desired Feelings could be a compass for the life I wanted to live back then. What a gift Desire Map would have been. Grateful to have it now.” – Autumn S.

What you'll get:

• The Full Video Course!
• Part 1: DISCOVERING Your Core Desired Feelings
• Part 2: CLARIFYING with Your Core Desired Feelings
• Part 3: PLANNING with Your Core Desired Feelings
• Part 4: LIVING Your Core Desired Feelings

• The Desire Map Course Printable Workbook. From deep inquiry to imaginal exercises, there are 24 worksheets in total + 3 tear-out cue cards for some of the key practices.
• Printable Worksheets + Practices.
• Lifetime Ownership. Desire Mapping is a life practice. You’ll find it beneficial to revisit this process at least once a year to refresh and stay connected to your Core Desired Feelings.
• A Gift Card. Purchasers of The Desire Map Course receive 25% off of their first order in Danielle’s online SHOP, where you can pick up The Desire Map Day Planner, #Truthbomb decks, and meditation kits!

Return to your heart. Choose your feelings. Create your life with intention.
