Life is better when you're pursuing your Core Desired Feelings. By listening to your heart and getting clear on how you really want to feel, you're able to live in alignment with your deepest values and principles. Instead of struggling to feel satisfied and fulfilled, you'll have a clear road map (that you design!) for how to get what you really want in life.

Life is always changing, and our Core Desired Feelings can change over time, too. That's why it's so important to return to the Desire Mapping process regularly - checking in with your heart lets you discover what may have changed, anywhere you're not moving towards your Core Desired Feelings, and how to get yourself back on track. 

When you join the full Desire Map course, you'll get access to the heart-centered tools and support you need to access the power of your Core Desired Feelings and transform your relationships, career, and life for the better!

Lifetime Ownership: A Continuous Journey

You’ll find it beneficial to Desire Map once or twice a year: your birthday, the New Year, big transitions, so you can refresh and stay connected to your Core Desired Feelings. Danielle’s delivery is both practical and poetic, so after you’ve gone through the course the first time, you’ll probably find yourself dropping into a video here and there for comfort and clarity. Since Desire Mapping is a life practice, we’ve built this course in a way that you can keep tapping into it for how-to’s and encouragement.

The full video course runs 3 hours — 25 videos, sequenced as Part 1: DISCOVERING Your Core Desired Feelings, Part 2: CLARIFYING with Your Core Desired Feelings + Part 3, PLANNING with Your Core Desired Feelings and Part 4: LIVING Your Core Desired Feelings. Danielle sets up every exercise with a philosophical overview and offers pointers for each component and its companion worksheet.  

From deep inquiry to imaginal exercises, there are 24 worksheets in total + 3 tear-out cue cards for some of the key practices. You can download each individually.

Danielle LaPorte is a member of Oprah’s Super Soul 100, a group who, in Oprah Winfrey’s words, “is uniquely connecting the world together with a spiritual energy that matters.”

She is the creator of The Desire Map series. The book has been translated into ten languages, a day planner system, a multimedia course, a Top 10 iTunes app, and workshop and coaching programs with leaders in 15+ countries. She’s also the author of White Hot Truth: Clarity for keeping it real on your spiritual path, and The Fire Starter Sessions: A guide to creating success on your own terms, which also spun off into a coaching curriculum.

She was a bartender, an apartment manager, a nanny, and eventually… she ran her own publicity agency, and a future-studies think tank studying trends for the likes of the Pentagon and the World Bank. Now she writes poetry and speaks about conscious living. She’s also a mother to a teenage son.

Named one of the “Top 100 Websites for Women” by Forbes, over 5 million people a month visit DanielleLaPorte.com for her regular #Truthbombs and poetry, and what’s been called “the best place online for kickass spirituality.” Marianne Williamson refers to Danielle “as a bright light in the modern priestesshood.” Eve Ensler calls her “a force field of energy, wonder, humour, and love.”

Danielle’s charities of choice are VDay: a global activist movement to end violence against women and girls; and charity water, setting out to bring safe drinking water to everyone in the world.

She lives in Vancouver, Canada. You can find her on Instagram @daniellelaporte.

Your Core Desired Feelings are how you want to feel most of the time—your most preferred states of being. They’re life-affirming feelings—positive and expansive. They’re qualities of the heart—expressions of love and vitality. Your Core Desired Feelings move you toward your Highest Self.

Align with your Core Desired Feelings—every day, in all of your choices, especially the big ones––and you’ll be living and giving, with intention. Everything we want is in that wakefulness. It’s the power of heart intelligence.

We live in a goal-obsessed culture, but this step of Desire Mapping is where set intentions without the grind. We goal-vet before we goal-set. Because the journey has to feel the way you want the destination to feel. Danielle teaches you new frameworks for planning your life and schedule in ways that are rooted in your heart-intelligence.

We'll dive into:

• Dream Analysis
• Goal Vetting Before Goal Setting
• Intention + Goal Setting
• Brutal Facts + Fears
