Forgiveness doesn't often come easy, but it's a big part of being human. And self-forgiveness? This is something many, many men come to me with questions about. Danielle is an old friend and I'm deeply grateful to have sat down with her on this topic. We also cover what it looks like to actually deal with our fears—to compassionately work with them and other patterns that may hold us back. 
Danielle LaPorte is a member of Oprah’s SuperSoul 100 a group who, in Oprah Winfrey’s words, “is uniquely connecting the world together with a spiritual energy that matters.” 
The former director of a future studies think tank in Washington, DC, where she managed a team creating global scenarios. She now speaks about the intelligence of the heart.
