"I Did Early Motherhood on Credit Cards" — Danielle LaPorte

#218 [REPLAY] — Danielle LaPorte’s intuitive nature informs her parenting style, and she shares her spirituality with her son. In this interview, host Sarah K Peck asks her to talk about her parenting journey. She shares that it began with an overwhelming desire to be a mom, that, when it arrived, she immediately followed even though it didn’t fit into her predetermined life plan. Danielle’s next-level understanding of consciousness is the foundation of her parenting philosophy, a philosophy that includes truth bombs like: no shaming, no lying, no psychological game playing, and no pushing your child to be what YOU want. Rather, Danielle encourages parents to pay attention to what their children love, and who they are from the beginning, even as infants. Today Danielle shares her parenting and entrepreneurial journeys, explaining how the two paths coincide and developed together. She offers her insight on parenting, speaking to the phases, the physical exhaustion, and the decisions of what to share (and not share) with your kids. Sarah asks Danielle about the solitude of entrepreneurship and solo parenting, the significance of cultivating adult female friendships, and the value of meditation and pleasure in living a full life. Listen in and learn how to develop a parenting style that is informed by your belief system and honors your child’s soul.
