Show notes

You're listening to episode 104 of the Lead with Love podcast. This interview was originally on a Facebook live video, so here's the show notes link if you want to watch it (FIND full show notes here): http://jadahsellner.com/finding-magic-in-the-messy-middle-danielle-laporte-104/

In this cozy conversation about transitions, trust, and finding magic in the messy middle, I interview Danielle LaPorte. Her answers are super inspiring, real, and unfiltered (so kids wear your ear muffs!).

Danielle LaPorte is a writer, speaker, poet, business maven, mama, muse to many, and a member of Oprah's SuperSoul 100. I love the way she shows up in the world, standing in her truth and leading with heart.

You can get your hands on Danielle's newest book White Hot Truth: Clarity for Keeping It Real on Your Spiritual Path from One Seeker to Another.

Some things we talk about in today's episode are…

How Danielle responds to a room full of strangers when asked, "so what do you do?"
Her reason for cutting her dreads (did you know she had them twice?!)
Why she took a break from the speaking circuit (and her thoughts about FOMO - fear of missing out)
You'll learn a couple of different ways you can say "no" to opportunities that come your way
Transitions, rebranding, and her favorite way of connecting with her son (this simple, quick ritual is SO good, and I've already added it to my family routine)

I also asked a question that Danielle's never been asked before and her answer was a good one! You'll have to listen to find out which one it was. ;-)

"Making Decisions From Your Heart" with Marie Forleo - 103 Feb 20, 2018

Show notes

In this conversation, you'll get to know Marie Forleo. I discovered her when I joined her amazing online business program (that helps you fall in love with online marketing!) called B-School.

In this episode we talk about why making decisions with your heart matters, even if it doesn't always make sense on paper. We look at how to quiet that vicious voice in your head so you can do your work in the world, and also the importance of choosing joy, even when the work is not always sexy behind-the-scenes.

The cool thing about Marie is that she is so down to earth, even though she's been named by Oprah as a thought leader for the next generation, as well as being named one of Inc's 500 fastest growing companies.

Marie's mission is to help you build a life you love and to use your gifts to change the world. She's the creator of the award-winning online show, Marie TV, with over 35 million views on YouTube from an audience in 195 countries! As well as being the founder of B-School, through her Change Your Life, Change The World initiative, every product purchased helps support a person in need.

WHAT YOU'LL HEAR (AND DON'T WANT TO MISS) IN THIS EPISODE:

Why Marie says that leading with love and listening to your heart in business is always a win-win situation
The process she uses to determine the things she says "Yes" to
An example of a time when Marie went with logic over her heart - why it didn't pay off and what she did about it
What she means when she says that she's a "multi-passionate entrepreneur"
The intentional things that Marie did when she first starting building her community online – and who she has zero tolerance for
What shifts she's looking to make in her business and the filter that her team uses when making all decisions
The mantra that Marie lives by in business and life…

"Loving the Process, Not the Product" with Jonathan Fields - 102 Feb 09, 2018

In this episode Jonathan reveals his strategy for building long-term versus chasing trends, how he optimizes results and how he continues building a community without losing the magic.
