Debbie Roppo Health Coach

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.

To achieve this certification, coaches have demonstrated competency in critical coaching skills and can use the Certified International Health Coach (CIHC) designation.

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 and ran it with great success.

These are a few of my successes but by far my greatest education has come from the College of Life!

I was born and raised in a small town in Ohio with 4 beautiful sisters. My Dad taught us that if you put your mind to something, anything could be fixed. My Mom taught us that ALL are of value and we are to love and respect EVERYONE.

I didn’t believe those things about myself even though I believed they applied to others. In my teens I struggled greatly with self-worth and chose alcohol and drugs to quiet the voice in my head that told me over and over again that I wasn’t worth much. I lived that way for many years. I struggled as a mother. I was divorced 3 times. I struggled with never having enough money. I was lost and felt so defeated and hopeless. I was unhappy and felt so unworthy, so ashamed.

I decided that was not how my life was going to be. I decided I was done living my life for others. I decided that I was smart enough to figure out how to change my life and that I was worthy enough to do just that. This was one decision, in one moment.

I had no idea how I was going to make the changes but I knew in the deepest part of me that there was a voice that I’ve heard since I was a child that believed in me and that kept telling me whenever I was sober and quiet enough that I was meant to empower women to live their purest most authentic lives. My journey of self-love began right then and there.

Fast forward to today, I am a Health Coach who is passionate about what she does. Who loves her women deeply and can see the light within them even though they can’t often see it themselves. I am self-disciplined, hardworking, loving, compassionate, educated, protective of our women and give my ALL to coach them to their life’s dreams. Dreams of feeling happy, of feeling healthy, of having healthy relationships, careers, finances, and spiritual lives. I unveil the Authentic women who lives in EVERY ONE OF US.

That is me, let’s grow together. 😊
