Good afternoon,

Today I want to introduce you guys to a great author that I'll be spotlighting And she'll be giving away 2 of her books.  Please read on for these.

The book is titled The Fire Starter Sessions by author Danielle Laporte.

This is a self help-success book

A Soulful + Practical Guide to Creating Success on Your Own Terms

THE FIRE STARTER SESSIONS is an apathy-kicking, integrity-infusing guide
to defining success on your own terms.
With her signature in-the-trenches truth-telling and humor, Danielle re-frames
popular self-help and success concepts to cut through dull thinking and fear in
order to get straight to one's core desires, pragmatism, and courage.
Part sermon, part pep talk, and part Q&A, THE FIRE STARTER SESSIONS is oxygen for aspirations and a modern-day philosophy for people who want to

believe that "consciousness and cash can coexist...that desire will burn the way to
fulfillment...that all dreams are renewable." Each session in the book is
accompanied by worksheets that are provocative and results oriented. Danielle's
unique personal narrative of loss and achievement--
from boardrooms to
ashrams--flow with stories of women and men who stopped playing it safe and
became freedom seekers and fear tamers.

She’s been listed, ranked, and quoted. At the core of her success is her ability to write. She writes beautifully, lustfully, and poignantly.”

Insightful, poetic, and just the right kind of brazen,

Danielle reframes success + self-help — and burns some illusions to a crisp.

: Life balance is a myth,

and the pursuit of it is causing us more stress than the craving for balance itself.

: Being well rounded is highly overrated. If you want to live from your own creative edge, you have to ride the tension of your contradictions and focus on what makes you feel powerful.

: Competency is for suckers. Your most valuable currency is what comes naturally to you.

When you focus on developing your true strengths, you enter your mastery zone.

: You're an artist, and that’s that.

When we’re giving our best, we’re being artistic. When you’re bringing your whole self to the party, you’re making poetry happen—and you do it all the time, naturally.

: Screw your principles.

They might be holding you back.

: We have ambition backward.

Clarifying how you want to feel in your life + work is more important than setting goals. It’s the most potent form of clarity that you can have, and it’s what leads to true fulfillment.

: Be the giver. Force it if you have to.

Make generosity part of your growth strategy and you will cross that sacred divide where love is no longer a concept but is your soul made manifest. You. Giving. Love. Gorgeous.

THE FIRE STARTER SESSIONS is the permission slip you've been waiting for

—  to fully want what you want and go for it, to expand your consciousness and your cash flow, to up the ante on your dreams, to be incredibly generous with your love. This is a modern-day pep talk and soul-centered Q&A for people ready to shine brighter than they ever have.

After Danielle LaPorte’s straight-talking sermons and burning questions about your truest desires—from career to relationships—it will be clear that the only permission you need to shine . . . is your own.
