Who is this for?
This workshop is for you if you know you deserve more of what life has to offer you but you’re really not sure where to start.
You often feel overwhelmed with so much in front of you and you barely get time for yourself. You’re always doing things for others and you often put yourself last.
You’ve recently experienced a change such as children leaving home; marriage has ended or is losing its shine; you’ve recently moved home or changed job and are questioning if it was the right move; you’ve lost a loved one; you can’t seem to move past or let go of feelings of hurt or anguish from previous situations.
You suffer from anxiety, mild depression or lack of focus and wish to experience better clarity.
You’re a type A personality – always setting goals, achieving them, setting goals achieving them but feel like you’re on a treadmill and you’re not feeling as fulfilled as expected.
How do you want to feel?
Meet Danielle La Porte. She created The Desire Map process. One of the most powerful things you can ask a person – How do you want to feel? Everything we do is for a feeling – even if we recognise that or not. The journey has to feel the way we want the destination to feel.
What’s included for in person events?
Should I bring my own journal?
Yes. Even though the workbook is provided you may want to write your own notes in a separate book to refer to later. And you might want to get contact numbers of your other attendees. Great friendships get made on our courses.
I’m gluten intolerant and dairy free – can you cater to special dietary requirements?
Yes. We can absolutely take care of any dietary requirements. Our venues and their caterers are amazing! The food is always raved about and is a special part of the day. Please let us know beforehand though, so that we can make sure we take care of you.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes by all means when you book let us know so that we can give you a special discount for both of you. Its nice to do these types of events with friends and you can often make new ones on the course too.
Where will the event take place?
Birdwoods Sweet Shop and Gallery, 298 Middle Road, Havelock North
When and what time will it take place?
We will meet on Monday 25 September 2023 just before 9.00am and finish around 4.30pm.
Can this workshop also be done online?
Yes. We will be offering this workshop online. See What's included for online events further down the page.
Love from past members
“Carol is a natural facilitator and has a warm, friendly, engaging style, which completely drew me in.”
She is welcoming, inclusive, and affirming. I came away from the day feeling nurtured, happy, and proud of what I had accomplished. The whole day was a delicious treat, a feast for all the senses plus tasty food and gifts. It was also a chance to connect deeper with myself while also connecting and sharing with others. I have taken away some invaluable tools which I will treasure. Thank you so much, Carol.

“I went away feeling more connected to my own values and where I wanted to head.”
I didn’t exactly know what to expect when I attended Carol’s workshop. My mother had suggested I get in touch with her as she had heard her adverts on the radio. I was pleasantly surprised. I gained more clarity for the next phase of my life having no children at home and experiencing a recent breakup. I can recommend Carol as someone who takes time to listen, provides genuine understanding, and gives supportive guidance.

“ I feel more connected to what I want moving forward.”
I’ve felt that I’ve always been someone’s daughter, someone’s wife, or someone’s mother. I found doing the Desire Map workshop with Carol has given me a greater sense of who I am now that my children have left home, my parents are in the process of transitioning and my marriage has just moved past 25 years. I feel more connected to what I want moving forward thanks to the process of creating my core desired feelings. Thanks, Carol – you’ve given me back myself.

Level One: Core Desired Feelings
We step into our core desired feelings. Slowly at first so that we warm up and gain a solid foundation for our discovery into how we want to feel. We dive deep into what is working well and what’s not and re-connect with what inspires gratitude and what’s really gotta go . At the end we will have between three and five core desired feelings that we will live our life by. Each morning you will wake up knowing how you want to feel today and what you will do to feel that way.
Level Two: Goals with Soul
Once we’ve tried on the Core Desired Feelings for a while, we will come back together to set our Goals with Soul based on those feelings. You will know how you want to feel so now we need to set goals in the five areas of our life so that we live into our feelings around what we do, how we act, and what we want to have based on how we feel. Its goal setting reverse engineered from how it will feel when we get there. Its the journey not the destination we want to live into and enjoy. It all starts with the feeling so you know it will be worthwhile to pursue that goal.
Level Three: Feeling and Goals Check-in
We will reconnect one to one to see how things are going. Just an hour’s follow up on your path. This accountability call is included in either workshop and allows you to ensure you are where you want to be, have been living into your Core Desired Feelings and are on track to meet your goals.
Grab your seat today, and start feeling the way you want to feel.
$295 for online group events / $365 for in-person group events

Carol, your Facilitator
I made a conscious decision a number of years ago to explore more of what life had to offer. To go deeper into universal laws, scientific proofs, spiritual principals and ethereal intentions. I have found out more information than I thought possible. And I have come to the conclusion that, yes life can be challenging but always I have the power to choose. I choose how I look at the outcomes, how I interact with others and fundamentally how I create my reality.
So I chose to work with Danielle La Porte and here I am. It’s my sincere wish for you that you find your deepest foundation in life and if I can be part of your journey, I would be honored to be your witness.
