This is for you if you’re a high-performing manager or rising leader who:

  • Has been successful, but is exhausted from trying to hold all the competing priorities — between the company, the team, and the business itself
  • Wants to scale to the next level, but knows you can’t keep doing it all yourself
  • Manages people, but still feels like every decision, issue, or fire ends up on your plate
  • Knows there’s a better way to lead — one that creates results without costing you your health, your time, or your family

Essence in Leadershipâ„¢ is a complete reset for high achievers who've outgrown the way they’ve been operating — helping you shift from reactive, overextended, and constantly on-call to clear, confident, and deeply effective — in just 5 months, through a proven method that transforms how you lead yourself, your team, and your business.


This transformation happens through my 5-part framework: The E.M.B.E.R. Method™ — a practical, personal roadmap for growing the team, culture, and business you want, without losing your mind in the process.


Essence Awareness

Mindful Energy

Bold Leadership

Embodied Systems

WHAT YOU GET / INSIDE THE PROGRAM

Here's what's included:

Weekly live coaching calls — 3 per month, plus integration weeks

These small-group sessions are where we work through your real-time challenges, apply new strategies, and practice tools that shift how you lead. We also include integration weeks which are scheduled pauses from live calls to give you space to apply what you’ve learned, reflect on what’s working, and make real progress before adding more.

Weekly pre-recorded modules

Before each live call, you’ll receive a short pre-recorded module that introduces the week’s concepts and provides context. This ensures you come prepared, ready to engage, and able to learn in the way that fits you best.

Always-on group support

Through a private online forum, you can ask questions, share wins, and get input between calls. Whether it’s a quick decision you need to make or encouragement to keep momentum, you’ll never feel like you’re on your own.

Smaller cohorts for deeper connection

Enrollment is capped so you’re not lost in a crowd. You’ll have the benefit of learning alongside other high-caliber leaders while still getting the individual support and attention you need.

Strategy + mindset, combined.

This isn’t theory and it’s not just tactics. You’ll strengthen the inner confidence and resilience that make great leaders while also implementing concrete systems and structures to free up your time and scale your team.

It’s a comprehensive container — but more importantly, it’s a transformation engine. Because this isn’t about information. This is about actually changing how you lead, live, and scale.

Ready To Lead Differently?

Hi, I'm Deb.

I spent over 30 years in corporate sales, management, and executive leadership, building and leading high-performing sales teams—and developing the managers who ran them. I know what it takes to succeed because I’ve lived it. I also know what it costs when we lose ourselves along the way.

On paper, I was thriving. But behind the scenes, I was juggling pressure, self-doubt, and the constant feeling that I had something to prove. I was burned out, desk-managing, and doing it all out of fear—while it quietly took a toll on both my work and my life. What changed everything was learning how to lead differently—not by doing more, but by setting the tone, trusting my team, and leading from clarity, not control.

That shift allowed me to untangle old patterns, rebuild my confidence, and grow large, self-sustaining teams with real momentum. Today, I coach high-achieving professionals and sales leaders who are ready to do the same. My approach blends mindset work, practical strategy, and personal growth—so you can lead with purpose, scale with clarity, and build a culture where your team (and you) can thrive.

Because success should feel like yours. And leadership should never cost you your peace.

"Working with Deborah was truly transformational. She has a gift for helping you uncover the stories and patterns you've been unconsciously living by and guiding you to release them. As a result, I feel more focused, grounded, and no longer thrown off by the small stuff. My business now flows with greater ease, and I have the clarity to focus on what truly matters - in work and in life. "
