Her audiences walk out feeling excited and motivated. But even more importantly, they walk out with clear, actionable information that they can implement immediately to create real results in their business and their lives.

Learning from her mother, a CPA, Debra discovered how to budget and how businesses work from the early age of 11. From her father, who held a PhD in Experimental Psychology, she was gifted with an intuitive insight into human behavior.
