Danielle LaPorte joins us yet again to share her wisdom, this time on the practice of living a heart-centered life. In her latest book, How To Be More Loving, Danielle teaches that we don't need to focus on 'fixing' ourselves but rather we should align ourselves with our heart. This is the key to living a reflective, non-reactive and more loving life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
