“Danielle LaPorte is scary smart, yet so kind and practical that she kindles the fire in you without causing you to feel consumed by the flames. She has the knowledge you need to succeed. Lean in and listen close. What she has to say is what our spirits need to hear.”

In a world filled with books, blogs, and magazine articles wanting to give us directions with how-to this and seven steps to that, Danielle gives us a map. A map is a full, whole lay of the land. It highlights the landscape. You can see the many ways to navigate, you can always find your bearings, you can choose a different path to the same destination. You can walk across the countryside and aren’t limited to the roads. And desire, in case you didn’t know, means “from the stars” – also a great navigation tool for humans throughout history.
With the stars and a map as your companions, The Desire Map will help you find your way home to yourself, to re-ignite the desire spark you were born with and hear the cry of your soul.

I LOVE IT (i just started) The private portal is state of the art and just amazing. The cost is much less than most of classes that I take during the year for my business (and you can do 3 payments!) Danielle gets right down to the heart of the matter and that resonates with the type of person that I am. If you love Fire Starter Sessions then this will speak to you!

Danielle Laporte is my most compelling, vital, and climactic mentor to date. Now, I’m 45-years-young, and the list of mentors has been impressive. MIT Nobel Laureates. Superbrainy moms who are actually happy (huh?). New York Times bestsellers. UCSF thought leaders.
Yet, Danielle is the best. An inspirational speaker, former think tank exec and business strategist, Danielle is my aspirational mama warrior.
Why? Danielle is a yoga-powered champion of YOU-ness. That is… you, rocking your mission and brimming with desire. And her new book lays out the roadmap for how to rewire to desire, not stress.
Danielle talks about sacredness, entrepreneurship, and motherhood – in the same sentence – and with equal authority.
Danielle has accomplished something extraordinary.
Listen in, because this is the most crucial part to learn today: Danielle has crafted a way to configure her life that keeps her…
Knowledge is power. Action is sexy.
Empowerment is the ultimate prescription.

When I sat down with The Desire Map, I immediately felt my shoulders relax. Within the first few pages I was nodding my head. I felt heard and validated. She did it. She gets it. And now everyone else can too.
I WISH that this goldmine of insight and practical guidance had been by my side over the years. I feel blessed to have Danielle in my life, and I can’t wait to see the floodgates of bliss, a-ha’s and life-changing shifts burst open as people put their Desire Map into practice.
“… the revolution you’ve been waiting for, it will shake-up and wake-up every aspect of your life. Danielle LaPorte offers soulful wisdom to create a blueprint for moguls, spiritual rockstars, and lovers of life. Skinny dip head first into this hot and fabulous book. I dare you.”

“The Fire Starter Sessions shows us how to do what the world tells us we can’t: be unapologetic about our deepest desires and live a life beyond our wildest dreams. Danielle reminds us that all the passion and inspiration we’re seeking lies within us – and she guides us to uncover that beautiful fire and share it with the world.”
“First of all, these girls know their stuff. They’ve done it. They’ve helped others do it. Their tips are timely, practical and produce results. They share case studies of themselves and clients, and even share the plans that helped them get agents and book deals. They really over-deliver in the content department. Every time I got to a new chapter, I was amazed at how much information and resources they provide. They take you through section-by-section on HOW to write a book plan, and tell you all the tips and also share the mistakes novices make. It’s a great straight read, and I have also enjoyed going to back to read certain sections I forgot, or catch an audio that reminded me about a key tool. It’s like the crystal ball for book plans.”

“Just wanted you to know that even just scratching the surface of Your Big Beautiful Book Plan has changed the course of 2012 for me. I’ve been writing a science fiction novel for the better part of my adult life. This year? I finish it. This year, I get this little gem published.”

This is the best resource on writing a book proposal and plan that I have ever seen (and I have read a lot them!). I am so proud to be able to offer this product to you! It will make you want to stay up all night and write, write, write. And get your ducks in a row to get your beloved writing published and read!”
– Lynda Monk | CreativeWellnessWorks.com
“I was already writing my second book — my first was a self-published — and planned to self-publish again. But the day after Your Big Beautiful Book Plan was released, a friend offered to make an intro to a top agent for me… so I took it as a sign and snapped up the book!
YBBBP really opened my eyes to the actual selling of a book! I loved the little boxes of insight from Danielle and Linda. They show you what normally works, as well as showcasing people who break all the rules. The samples are key- I loved the variety of examples of successful pitches. They are all so different, showing that we can really be ourselves when pitching our books.
I now have a finished book proposal ready and have started 2012 with a bang. The next time you hear from me, we’ll have an agent, and after that we’ll have a book deal!”
– Betsy Talbot | MarriedwithLuggage.com
“I AM going to finish and publish my book. The kick-ass motivation and on-the-ground wisdom found inside Your Big Beautiful Book Plan, combined with the real-life examples have officially sealed the deal.
Though I’m still working on the program, I stopped at the Query Letter section, opened up a blank MSWord Document, and crafted my letter. I then sent it out the next day to four literary agents.
In less than 12 hours one wrote back and asked me for the first 50 pages of my manuscript. (Are you kidding me?!?) Follow the plan. Results are waiting for you!”
Danielle challenged our women to provocatively redefine our relationship to goal setting. Focusing on how we want to “feel” vs. what we have to do was a big frame shift, and one that I know is helpful to many women in getting clearer about setting goals that release their full power to succeed, including myself.
Danielle spoke at our most recent Texas Conference for Women and received rave reviews from our audience. She is completely lovely to work with and we would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.
- Amy Cooper I Program Director, Conferences for Women
“I have hired Danielle several times to speak for Women in Biz Network, most recently at two national conferences where she served up authentic advice and witty wisdom to savvy business women. Her feisty style and sense of humour win over the audience and send them into a frenzy — which always results in a wild standing ovation. While hugely successful, Danielle is no diva and is a complete pleasure to work with. I wholeheartedly recommend Danielle for her rocking empire of books, products (which are always on my recommended lists) and awesome stage presence.”
- Leigh Mitchell | Founder & President, Women in Biz Network
“Danielle sparked our audience to think. You can’t hear Danielle and not be inspired to think differently about what you do and how you do it. She is great and puts all her energy behind everything she commits to.”

“Danielle LaPorte was impeccable on our stage. She infused every participant with magic, love and possibility. I am so deeply honored and grateful for her presence and her message. She is pure magic. Words can’t do justice to the honor, care and heart she not only brought to our audience, but to the entire event as a whole. I’m in love, love, love with her and have already booked her to work with us again!”
