THIS MONTH WE ARE CATCHING UP WITH ONE OF OUR FAVORITE COACHES, ASKING HOW SHE IS AND WHAT SHE IS CURRENTLY DOING.

Body, Mind, Spirit is Deb’s newest project. The name came to her as she was meditating. While, she has always been focused on women’s issues, she was inspired to develop this content out of requests from her coaching clients. She kept hearing that they were not happy with their body, their business, or relationships. Many women were looking for more of a spiritual guidance and exploration.
Deb’s focus is to guide women to be healthier and happier, to learn to balance all three areas of their health, and to offer a community of like-minded women striving to do the same.
Women’s needs have changed since Covid and Deborah was able to pivot and adjust her programs to focus on those needs.
Deb’s experience as an entrepreneur expands many years beginning with her Real Estate career. She launched her Radio Network and wrote her first book, “The Divalution”, in 2012. She says, “As an entrepreneur you are always evolving and adjusting as the business grows. Lucky I am open to learning new things!”
Class offerings are changing and evolving to remain relevant. Her female-focused business model was born out of a desire to unite and lift women.
Her current podcast is called “Joyful July”. She explained that when attending her granddaughter’s birthday party recently, she noticed how the children were playing with such abandonment with a swimming pool, slide, and water balloons. They were laughing, tumbling, with legs up in the air, just enjoying the moment. As adults many of us have forgotten how to play and how good it feels. She picked up a water balloon and threw it at her sister. They joined in the fun with the kids.
Summertime offers many opportunities--with fireworks, family gatherings, picnics, and outdoor fun--to let go!
Do something you have never done. So often we say, “When I have more time, or when I get that new job, or when I have more money, I will be happy then.” Deb says, “There is too much focus on exterior situations or excuses resulting in us delaying our joy, always putting our joy on hold until things change. You can learn how to ‘fill’ yourself with joy now. Decide today to become a more joyful person.”
One of Deb’s favorite quotes is by Wayne Dyer: “Change the way you look at things and the things you look at will change.” Most times you can find something positive in your day. Train your brain to have more fun! It is up to you. She acknowledged that yes; we can’t always be happy and joyful every second. Often, life situations can be challenging. But you can take steps to experience more Joy. Train your brain to seek joy.
