Moving beyond symptoms to uncover the root causes
Debbie’s Story
Most of my career has been in healthcare strategy and operations, partnering with leaders and organizations to navigate complex challenges and enhance the health of systems, teams, and outcomes. My focus was on understanding how they function, where they’re strong, and where they may be less effective. Along the way, I became increasingly drawn to a different kind of health, the human kind: how people make decisions, navigate change, and define what matters most in their work and lives.
I’ve also lived it. Pivotal moments in my own career and personal path led me to pause, reflect, and make conscious shifts. There were times when the symptoms were clear, but the causes were not. Those experiences inspired me to become a coach.
As a Personal Development and Leadership Coach, I focus on helping people who are navigating transition or feel ready for a change to identify and improve the health of what matters most in their life, career, and overall well-being. Together, we explore what’s working, what’s out of alignment, and make intentional changes that create clarity, perspective, and confidence.
Coaching With Debbie is about moving forward from a place of awareness and choice, not guesswork. It’s about finding peace with the hard parts, aligning the pieces of your life, and stepping into a truer version of yourself.
Improving the health of what matters most starts with being honest about what matters most. And that changes everything.
Outside of coaching, you’ll usually find me with my dog, getting competitive about movie, TV, and music trivia, or singing with Brooklyn’s only Yacht Rock Choir.
If this resonates, I’d love to connect and explore how coaching might support you.
