WHO are you? The Millennial Skills Coach WHAT do you do? “I help Millennials develop their skill-set professionally.” HOW do you do it? “I train, coach, and develop young professionals to grow in experiences, create a successful environment, and expect greatness. ” But WHY? “I graduated from college in 2004 and had no clue what I was going to do for a career. The degree I had just received was not the path I wanted to take any longer. I felt confused, lost, and frustrated. After nearly 10 years of work in 3 different industries, I started my own business. In fact, not just one business, but two. It was through these experiences and new environments where I truly developed successful skill-set. I had coaches, groups, and resources to help me through the growth, but realized most young professionals have none of that. So I first set out on a mission to help Millennials, young professionals, grow their skill-set, but realized their was mutually beneficial third-party in the mix. Businesses also want to see their Millennials grow, develop, and succeed. So now I don't only work with Millennials, but also businesses looking to hire, train, retain, and even promote Millennials within their workplace. Tomorrow will be greatly impacted by our investment in personnel today. I want to make a difference, so I am investing."

Deborah is an Early Brain Development Specialist, author, international speaker and founder of Brain Insights, LLC. She has trademarked the term, Neuro-Nurturing® and has created the unique series of Neuro-Nurturing® Interaction Packets for parents of children from birth through age 5. Deborah is passionate about assisting and working together with anyone that is dedicated to positively influencing children. Supporting individuals, groups, organizations, schools, companies and communities with understanding or implementation and also celebrating positive influences, she finds to be extremely invaluable and rewarding. Children frequently experience either the opposite or an inadequate amount of all that is need for optimal development. A lack of knowledge is critically impacting the future of not only children and their families, but our communities and over all society as well. The incredibly positive difference basic knowledge and understanding makes is so desperately needed. So to receive accolades for creating the series of packets for parents, and to successfully provide presentations, keynotes and be featured in publications, on radio shows, webinars and summits has been fulfilling and ignites her passions even further. Additionally, a wonderful collaboration with Redleaf Press Publishers to create the well-received broad series of packets for early childhood professionals has been an on-going highlight as well. She also is honored to serve on the board of directors for the Parenting 2.0 Global Ambassadors and in 2019 to be nominated for the NAEYCE board. Deborah is overjoyed with the response to Brain Insights® and the impact of reducing the effects of trauma and stress on young brains, with her overall goal of supporting children to shine the beautiful uniqueness of who they are. Throughout her career as a kindergarten teacher, children and families educational program coordinator, prevention focused community leader, national project evaluator, ECE Degree Instructor, child and family policy advocate and now international speaker and author, she has been extremely dedicated to networking and supporting professionals and all adults gain an essential understanding of the ways we each can easily contribute to making a REAL difference that benefits all.

My Are You Fit to be a Politician interviews and workouts are designed take back ownership of the label "politician" and to give voters a chance to hear directly from candidates...with less spin and more sweat.
