to achieve more powerful results.

I help people answer Life's invitation to become everything they secretly know in their hearts they came here to be and become.

Even if you feel stuck or don't know how to get from where you are now to where you really want to be, it's OK. What if that journey is the very adventure meant to activate all your most precious strengths and talents?

Are you suffering from any of these symptoms
of life’s tug-of-war?

Have you recently attempted to change things in your life only to feel like a giant rubber band snapped you back to where you started?

 Perhaps your job isn’t feeding your financial bottom line or no longer brings you the satisfaction it once promised. Do you long for work that has you jumping out of bed each morning, eager and ready to go?

Maybe your relationships are a comfort at times, but at other times they feel hard to manage on top of everything else. You could be wishing those relationships were easier and provided more understanding.

You might be feeling or hearing a little voice or nudge of inspiration, urging you toward that “special something”, something grander.

But you also have very real, everyday responsibilities that feel like they are pulling in the opposite direction of what that spirited part of you has in mind.

Or maybe you’re tired of fighting that other voice in your head, the Critic, the one that can make you crazy, complaining over and over; 

“It won’t work"
"You don’t know how"
"You’re not ready”.

You may feel peaceful and determined during quiet times of thought, meditation or prayer but you haven’t found a way to bring that good feeling of connection to a higher source of power to your everyday tasks and situations.

Yep, life can definitely feel like a tug-of-war or a juggling act with too many plates in the air. And if you sometimes want to shout, “I just need a break”…well you probably do need a break.

You probably could greatly benefit from a break from the everyday routine, a chance to regroup and prepare yourself to make a change that succeeds.

I’m not suggesting you drop everything; quite the opposite. In fact my idea is that every situation that doesn’t feel good yet, that I might call “a problem”, can simply be an invitation to discover a deeper strength and capability within.

I don’t have to go it alone, and neither do you.

I can receive help and support of that "Power greater-than-myself"; I’ll call it Life, but you might call it God, Source, Love or Spirit.

I believe that within any problem lies not only the seed of the solution but the extra benefit of developing strength of character, greater abilities, and renewed confidence.

	Deborah listens to me and she hears something in what I say that I don’t even realize until she asks about it. Her questions help me get clarity on any situation that might be causing me some frustration, that isn't moving fast enough for me. From that clarity she helps me  come up with an action plan that is perfect for who I am and what I want to do. I’m all about "Dream Big". And Deborah helps me stay on track, with the mental clarity to make my biggest dreams a reality.   Thach Nguyen, Seattle Entrepreneur
