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 humour, Danielle reframes popular self-help and success concepts to cut through dull thinking and fear in order to get straight to your core desires, pragmatism and courage.
The Fire Starter Sessions is oxygen for aspirations and a modern-day philosophy for people who want to believe that ''consciousness and cash can co-exist...that desire will burn the way to fulfilment...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.
