Professional Information

I am an Institute for Integrative Nutrition graduate. IIN is the largest holistic health and nutrition school in the world.

I hold an IAHC certification.

I also completed The Art & Science of Coaching at Erickson College.

Erickson pioneers ICF-certified coach training in the United States, Canada, and globally. Erickson’s accredited coach training includes the world-renowned program The Art & Science of Coaching.

I am a licensed radiographic technologist and have been for over 20 years. I x-rayed at a busy Orthopedic Surgeons office where I eventually became the Office Coordinator for the practice.

FMCA Functional Medicine Coaching Academy is my focus currently. I am always learning!

Personal Information

All of that is great and I am proud of my accomplishments so far but one of my most amazing accomplishments is what happened after I was diagnosed with RA, Rheumatoid Arthritis. RA is a disease where the cartilage is destroyed throughout your body. There isn’t a cure and it is a life changing diagnosis.

The treatment for RA can be horrific to deal with. As a x-ray tech who x-rayed for an orthopedic surgeons office. I saw first hand what the disease can do and what the treatment can do. I chose to treat myself naturally.

I was crawling on my knees in the mornings because of the pain. My fingers and feet were so swollen I often sat in tears. Fear filled me. This is my story.

Fortunately I had always had a love for learning about health. Unfortunately I knew what to do but wasn’t actually doing it. I wonder if you can relate?

I made the physical changes, eating and movement. I was much better, but still had symptoms.

This is when I deepened my journey of exploring my core authentic self. Taking off the masks and identifying what my wants and needs where. Acknowledging that I didn’t love myself.

I then looked at who I was in relationship with. What my environment was like. What boundaries needed set. Focused on the voice in my head. (it was really cruel) All of these areas and more I needed to look at to find my joy.

Focusing on the root cause. What did I need to remove from my life. What did I need to add.

My Hope

Every person is unique and should be treated as such. We need personalized attention.

That is my hope for ALL. That each one of us will have someone that focus’s on US and what WE want in our lives and find what works for US!!!

Ever since I was a little girl I have been passionate about health, it’s why I’m here. I am 100% in the flow (always a sign of living core authentic self) when I am doing anything with body health, mind work and spiritual growth.

My hearts desire is to walk alongside anyone who is interested in gaining health in body, mind and spirit. I hope that someone is YOU!!

I am honored that you spent some time with me 🙂

Why I love Being a Health Coach

Watching a women transform through self love, and what it creates in her life, is a gift to watch.

The amazment that the client goes through when they realize they have the answers is inspiring.

Fulfilling a life long dream of wanting to restore self love in my fellow women.

Debbie’s Definitions

Health Coach

A person whose purpose is to guide another in obtaining and experiencing better health in their mind, body, and spirit. The end goal is for all women to live a life that is joyful, healthy, and passionate on her terms. This is my life long passion. To do just this!

Love

Keeping your heart open. Living without agenda or expectations. Pure. Loving yourself and others. What I feel for every woman!

Passion

An inner drive that pulls the woman in a direction which brings excitement and unveils her purpose. Health coaching is my passion and it is my purpose.

Mind

Your internal dialogue that is connected to your belief systems, physical anatomy and chemical reactions. Mine used to be cruel, now it is loving. I want that for you too.

Body

The physical form that houses your mind and the spiritual part of you.

Spirit

Inner true voice. The Great One. God. The universe. All truth and love. Our guide.

Health

Body – Physically well and vibrant.
Mind – Loving your internal dialogue and belief systems.
Spirit – Being connected to your Source and knowing your purpose. This is my hearts desire for every Sister.

Crowding Out

Focusing on adding what is healthy instead of focusing on what you shouldn’t be doing. When we add in, our bodies start to become healthier and we have less time for bad choices. The healthier we are the easier it is to make healthy choices.

Sisters

Every female. Race, religion, etc. is irrelevant. We were not created to compete. We were created to celebrate each other. To bond together.

Physical Movement

Anything that activates the body’s healing system, through movement. Yoga, walking, gardening, playing, sex, etc. I use this word instead of exercise because I was talking with my sister about weight loss and when I said the word exercise she physically looked deflated. I noticed with my clients that the “E” word created a negative feeling. So, we don’t say exercise. We have physical movement.

Fear

An obstacle. A problem where the solution can’t be seen yet!

Goal weight

A weight where your medical numbers are in a healthy range. Blood pressure, sugar numbers, etc. Size is irrelevant.

Authentic Self

Who you are meant to be. You without the negative thoughts and mindsets we have come to believe about ourselves. Our most beautiful form.

Butterfly

Representation of the beauty of a woman.

Metamorphosis

Representative of the process of finding our authentic self.

Kaleidoscope

A group of butterflies. Us in our most beautiful form.

Membership

Our Sisterhood.

80/20

Eat 80% of the time super healthy foods and 20% of the time eat anything you want. When eating 80% of the time healthful, the 20% the body can handle. If fighting illness then the percentage should be tweaked.

Bio-individuality

One man’s poison is another man’s medicine and one man’s medicine is another man’s poison. Everybody is different and the needs and wants of every individual is different. Someone else’s solution may not be your solution.

Testimonials

I had been having cramps for a few months that finally got bad enough I decided to see my OB. At the appointment I learned I had a 4-5cm ovarian cyst -- the size of a golf ball! My OB said that I should come back in 6 weeks to check its size again. He said that if it hadn't shrunk by the time I came back (which he was anticipating it wouldn't since I had had it for a few months based on my symptoms), then I would need laparoscopic surgery to remove it, since it was at risk of bursting. The surgery would involve 3 incisions and a week laid up in bed; needless to say I wanted to avoid it.

I reached out to Debbie to see if there was anything I could do to try and get my body to heal the cyst naturally. I told her I had 6 weeks to shrink it or I would need surgery. Debbie gave me a ton of recommendations which I implemented immediately (diet changes, new supplements, castor oil packs, etc.). She was great about meeting me where I was at and helping me figure out which recommendations would fit into my life -- it definitely didn't feel like a major overhaul but rather small little things I could incorporate for 6 weeks.

6 weeks later I went back to the OB -- and the cyst was half the size! My OB was so pleased and said "I have no concerns at all about this -- I'll see you at your annual appointment but no need for us to keep monitoring this."

I would highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for help healing conditions naturally.

"Debbie was such a pleasure to work with. We spent 3 months working on the goals that she helped me to prioritize. She kept me focused using visualization techniques, meditation and journaling. I was thrilled with how productive our time together proved to be. I now have the tools to stay focused and stay on track. I would, and have, recommend Debbie to anyone looking to start a business, build better relationships or cope with family struggles. She is wonderful!!"
