LIGHT WORK : A podcast with Desire Map author, Danielle LaPorte

Thank you for the listens and encouragement for LIGHT WORK. You fueled me to keep making more—and so I did! NEW podcast. “With Love, Danielle.” For you. The first episode is live now. Listen in, resonate, and please subscribe here: daniellelaporte.com/withlove.

I’ve got a new conversation for you. It’s the first time I've publicly spoken about the "living death" I experienced in the Fall of 2018, and one of the most psychologically intimate conversations I've recorded. For your heart.

Friends, this is the last episode of this podcast series. And, of course, it’s devoted to one of my favourites: Devotion. We’re shining light on our prayers, our beliefs, our teachers… and whether they’re ACTUALLY getting us closer to what we really want—liberation. This is the real work of LIGHT WORK.

This is about our personal activism. Talking about how we can get justice, without incurring too much karma. About how to fight corruption without the anger burning us out. About the importance of being inclusive—to even the bad guys. I’m talking about how to be a revolutionary for just love.

If God is in the details, then the Soul is in a good Q&A. And that’s the substance this episode. Your questions make it so easy for me to rant and offer some (hopefully) useful how-to’s and tricks of the trade. The “trade” being discernment + devotion. It’s deep, it’s lite, I hope it’s all right.

I've talked to rabbis, priests, monks, and people I consider to be high esoteric practitioners. I’ve figured out a few things about joy: where it comes from; how to follow it; and how to live in joy without feeling like you’re betraying your (or anyone else’s pain). Tune in.

I deep dive into the unfathomable, beautiful lessons we may learn from pain… without falling for the New Age speak that would have us gloss over real suffering. Also in this EP: how to keep moving your life forward, when the day-to-day takes everything out of you.

We're connection starved, we know this. Let me give you a peek into my own friendship circle. In this ep, I use my own crew as how-to examples for creating radical support in your life. Also in here: tears of gratitude for my woman tribe, sexy monks, vagina talk, poetry, and general real-realness. Tune in.

The LIGHT WORK series will unfold over six episodes. These are girlfriend-style sermons on serving the world while staying sane, cosmic connectedness over tech addiction, self compassion and more fulfilling friendships. Poetry. Hilarity. Peeks into the personal. The podcast—and my upcoming LIGHTER year-long “Soul support” program—is intimate with plenty of esoteric talk.
