Embrace Joy, Elevate Life: Your Personal Joy Coach
Dr. Deb is a partner in your journey towards a life infused with purpose, positivity, and profound joy. Join her in embracing the beauty of life and making joy a cornerstone of your personal and collective well-being.”
Dr. Deb’s personal background is as an entrepreneur, an educator and a visionary.
She has run a multinational company that she started with two other partners, sold it, was an interim CEO to two start-ups, obtained her masters and doctorate and now focuses less on achievement, that didn’t bring her the joy she thought it would, but the being in the state of joy that is truly the cornerstone of her own well-being. Along with these accomplishments came many setbacks, disappointments, mistakes, losses, health issues and embarrassments, she nearly gave up on life. However, through friendships, love and faith with a heavy dose of grace she found her way back to life and what mattered. Today, she is that person for others. She encourages others to feel the feels of life but not to live in the space that derails their joy. It's a practice. It's not easy, but it's worth the work.
Dr Deb lives in Central Oregon part of the year, sometimes most of the year, but often finds herself in the central US, Texas, Hawaii, or anywhere else they have a chance to spend time and enjoy the world for a while.
Dr. Deb is married to her best friend and love of 42 years. They have two children and 4 grandchildren. She travels the world with zest and loves to learn about other cultures. Her children are avid travelers and she and her honey made sure this was a part of their life from birth. She loves her animals and as of now has become a cat lady, something she never thought she would be.
