What 7,000 Women Want to Let Go Of (and What They Really Want Instead) with Danielle LaPorte

5/5/20261 hr 6 min

What would happen if you stopped chasing what you think you want and started releasing what is in the way?

Today I am sitting down with Danielle LaPorte, bestselling author, member of Oprah’s Super Soul 100, and the creator behind the new Centering app for spiritual wellness. We are talking about her newest book, Bless and Release, and the survey she did with over 7,000 people asking just two questions: What do you want to let go of? And what do you want to manifest? The top answers will surprise you and probably feel very familiar.

I also read Danielle’s full natal chart live and we go deep into her Gemini Sun in the ninth house (she was born to write books and speak the truth), her Virgo Moon and why perfectionism has been her lifelong companion, and her Libra Rising that makes everyone she meets feel instantly at ease. We get into worthiness, people pleasing, managing other people’s emotions, self talk, and why your inner critic might actually be your greatest teacher if you know how to work with it. Plus, we talk about Mercury retrograde and why some people are less affected by it than others based on their chart.

Press play and share this with someone who is ready to release what is no longer serving them.

Topics Covered:

  • Danielle’s natal chart reading: Gemini Sun, Virgo Moon, Libra Rising
  • The ninth house and why Danielle was born to write books and tell the truth
  • Virgo Moon and the lifelong dance with perfectionism
  • Libra Rising and why beauty, balance, and aesthetics are part of her identity
  • Her book Bless and Release and the survey of 7,000+ people on what they want to release and manifest
  • The top answer: worthiness and the feeling of never being enough
  • Managing other people’s emotions and the hidden weight of people pleasing
  • How to recognize when you are carrying someone else’s emotional load
  • Self talk and your inner critic as a tool for growth
  • Why your identity has to match what you are trying to manifest
  • Mercury retrograde and why some chart placements make you less affected
  • The Centering app and Danielle’s vision for multifaith spiritual wellness
