    In this episode Executive Coach, Deborah Herrera will walk us through her goal-clarifying questions. These questions are a powerful tool for translating big-picture aspirations for your work and your life into well-defined goals that reflect your vision of success. Deb's questions will help you: define the “why” for achieving a specific goal; identify and eliminate roadblocks that are in the way of achieving your goals; create time to work on your goals; and identify action steps to start working on your goal.  These questions are a game-changer for personal and professional success!
