The Heart Centered Life: 5 Perspectives to Transform Your Journey

My loves, today, I’m bringing you the Shantideva Prayer—a powerful prayer that I’m committed to memorizing.  It’s a reminder that whenever we ask for support on behalf of helping someone else, we’re supported in return. This is about giving and receiving as one beautiful flow. We feelers, healers, seers, and everyday humans are called to alleviate suffering and amplify joy wherever we can. This prayer is a testament to that devotion. Ep 142 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is here to help move pain through us, like clouds across the sky, because we’re the sky—expansive, vast. We don’t hold onto suffering; we expand our commitment to serve. To be the lamp for those in the dark, the love wherever we go.

What do you associate with rejection? What’s the antidote to rejection? What does liberation mean to you? What does ”spiritual success” mean to you? And what do these questions have to do with more emotional intimacy in all of your relationships…? Everything! Nothing about another person makes us suffer. Healing is loving the unloved parts of ourselves. It’s that simple (and profound and life-long.) Listen in to this highlight from the MUCH DEEPER INTIMACY workshop in the Heart Centered Membership. We’re exploring how to be more compassionate and less botherable.   Episode 139 of With Love, Danielle is ready for you… to heal from rejection.

I’ve been thinking a LOT about the concept of mercy this year. My very basic definition: Mercy is when we just wish for someone to catch a break. That simple.  Mercy is the bonus deal that comes from Compassion.  Today I’m rolling through the spiritual and practical definition of COMPASSION. What does it look like according to the mystics, and what does it look like in our emails and our self care? Side note: I know we’re all extra full of emotions these days. And I know giving your full attention to a podcast can seem like another thing “to-do.” I’d love your full attention but I have another invitation: just hit play and let me roll in the background. You don’t have to “learn” or take notes. Just let this energy be your sidekick as you do what you need to do. Your subconscious self will get what it needs to get. Your conscious self will remember what you need to remember. Just breathe. Eps 137 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is here to help you be Compassionate with all of it.

Loves, Self love is easy when we’ve got our sh*t together. Courageous, outspoken, PRODUCTIVE. Check. Check. Check. I’m more interested in what happens when we’re not at our “best.” I want us to love the unlovable parts––and mean it. Not “love” the gnarly bits so they’ll change. That's’ not self love. That self-deception. I have some LOVE NOTE CUES for you. You can journal to these, or listen along and cry or laugh at your mortal coil. You don’t need to send them. But for sure, I bet these are LOVE NOTES you’ve never dreamed of writing to yourself or others. BY THE WAY… this is an exercise that I’ve done with leadership teams in global firms––it’s not trite. And BY THE WAY… this LOVE NOTE practice is part of the RELATIONSHIP REFLECTION that I’ve built into the 2025 Heart Centered Planner! Think: calendar meets self help revolution.
