Hi there! I'm Deborah (pronounced De-BORE-ah). I'm the person you call when you have big visions for yourself and don't want to burn out in the pursuit of them. My own experience with burnout while running a self-publishing concierge business is what led me to make a pivot into behind-the-scenes management so that I could help other entrepreneurs reach their dreams without burning out in the process. To that end, for the past 4-5 years, I've been the right-hand woman (Director of Operations, Project Manager, Chief of Staff) for over a dozen online service-based businesses. As a jill-of-all-trades but with the leadership and emotional literacy of a master certified coach (which I am!), I blend systems, people management, and intuition in a way that simplifies, streamlines, and scales. I’m familiar with and have experience with: - Building lean project management systems with scaling in mind - Accounts Receivable/Payable management - Vendor management - Account Management and Client Delivery Many of my clients report that I am the best operations manager they've ever hired, and it's because I balance both strategic focus with emotional literacy, which allows everyone I interact with to feel heard, seen, and supported to do their best work (especially you, as the CEO!). I'm also an attachment-based leadership coach for women CEOs, and have been featured as a speaker for Women Presidents Organization (WPO), a national organization for women CEOs earning at least $2million+ in ARR. I speak on how to balance high ambition with self-care, aligned leadership, and increased capacity. As you can tell, I'm passionate about this stuff. I take great pride in my work and it shows. We approach things with laser focus, and take the best steps that make the most sense to you and create the biggest wins in your business. Ready to get started?
