Video-Interview with Danielle LaPorte!

 

Holy fireballs! Sound the alarm! I had the pleasure of interviewing Danielle LaPorte of White Hot Truth last Friday afternoon. We talked about branding, networking (she calls it “connecting” — I call it “hustling”), daily routines and being a Renaissance soul. Oh, and we played a ferocious game of word association.

I am flickering with anticipation for THE FIRE STARTER SESSIONS — Danielle’s digital experience for entrepreneurs — to hit my inbox on Wednesday, May 12. Oh, but you gotta buy it, honey. Ms. LaPorte ain’t giving away the milk for free.

Balance is a Buzzkill

 

Everyone is always talking about BALANCE like it’s the Holy Grail of Awesome.

“Oh, I just wanna strike a work-life BALANCE.”

“I’m really striving for BALANCE in my life.”

“Above all, I want BALANCED relationships.”

I say balance is bootleg. Burdensome. Booooring. Balance is a buzzkill. Balance is for breakfast. Not for work, play + love.

If we replace the word BALANCE with something ferocious and neon and sexy — like PASSION, or ECSTASY, or AUTHENTICITY — then we’re gettin’ somewhere.

Go be imbalanced. And get some shit done.

 
XO.
