Danielle LaPorte is my Cult Leader

Fire-SS-cover-lres-309x400

OK, not really.

OK, kinda.

OK, enough that my husband calls Danielle “my cult leader”, & was worried that I wasn’t kidding when I joked that attending her Group Firestarter in NYC last Sept led me to shaving my head & vowing to only eat oregano.

Allow me to explain.

Being part of the Group Firestarter in NYC last fall was without question, the most inspiring, eye-opening, authenticating non-seminar I’ve ever been lucky to be a part of, & I draw on my lessons from it each & every day, especially as I grow my business as an entrepreneur who’s committed to focusing on the soul of it. There are so many Big Freakin’ Ideas contained within my Firestarter Notes, but what I remember leaving with – & when I left, I ran straight to my Flip camera to vlog without even stopping to pee, it was such a strong, exciting breakthrough for me – is the belief that I already had the answers, even if I didn’t know what the questions were yet. I was a wee entrepreneur who had never started my own business before, & was still tied down to Corporate America, & yet I knew that The Expert here was me. It blew my mind.

And now I’m stoked to tell you that you don’t have to wait for Danielle to come to your city to start your fire. You don’t have to spend $500 on a private session, either. Instead, she’s releasing her Nuggets of Genius (yes, that’s what I called my Group Firestarter notes) in digital form, offering them not only as written copy downloaded in PDF form, but taping fantabulous, mind-blowing videos to go with ‘em. I’ve gotten a peek at both & can say that they top the charts on both the fantabulous & the mind-blowing.

And can I tell ya something exciting?

I’m gonna be in one.

I know, I know! I almost peed when Danielle asked me to interview her for one of her Digital Firestarter videos, & then I really wet the bed when she asked me if she could interview me (for the whole leaving-Corporate-America-with-a-plan angle). I haven’t seen any of the video clips yet & I’m not sure what got kept & what got chopped, but I can guarantee that what’s gonna be there is gonna be – say it with me – fantabulously mind-blowing.

So yes, if Danielle started a cult I might be tempted to join, but that’s because it’s a cult based around your uniquity, your authenticity & your strengths (which is anything that makes you feel strong. I learned that from Danielle. Didn’t that just blow your mind?). And yes, I’ve already bought my copy & signed up for the affiliate program to spread the love. Keep in mind this is the first time I’ve ever promoted an affiliate product, & if I didn’t believe 1000% in it’s fantabulous mind-blowingosity I wouldn’t put myself behind it (or in it! That’s what she said).

And if you don’t trust me on her awesomeness, let her tell you herself via my favorite blog posts of hers (which was ridiculously hard to pare down. I coulda posted 50 of ‘em):

The Digital Firestarter launches 5/12, but if you reserve your copy early you get a free chapter & free videos to go along with it. Come & join the “cult.”

No oregano or shaved heads will result in this purchase. Well, not directly, anyway.
