There is a wide range of adverse childhood experiences which can negatively impact people for the rest of their lives. Today's guest, social worker turned lawyer, Debbie Ausburn, has spent the majority of her adult life caring for children who have gone through some form of trauma. She has fostered approximately 30 children, and was the step-mother of five more, all while running a law firm! We are so grateful to have her join us on the show today to share some of the vital learnings she has had while raising other people's children (which is also the title of her new book). Debbie explains why children who have experienced trauma are often not able to function at their full capacity (and why she ensured her children knew that going to college is not a prerequisite for a good life), the importance of building a safety net for yourself if you are looking after traumatized children, some of the strategies she used to find a balance between her work and home life, and the importance of understanding that if you are a foster parent or a step-parent you will never replace a biological parent (and what this means for the parent-child relationship.) Although raising other people's children was the hardest thing Debbie has ever done, it has also been the most rewarding, and Debbie has invaluable advice for anyone who is on a similar journey.What you'll learn about in this episode:How Debbie's upbringing inspired her to do the work that she does. Why Debbie transitioned from social work to law.An adverse childhood experience which is often overlooked.Impacts that childhood trauma has on children. How parents can mitigate their children's trauma. Factors that can result in differentiated experiences of trauma for children.Educational levels that children who grew up in foster care commonly achieve.Career advice that Debbie has given to the children she has fostered.Why long-term thinking is difficult for children dealing with trauma.The approximate number of children who Debbie fostered full time in her home, and the kind of care she is hoping to offer in the future. Debbie explains the premise of her book, Raising Other People's Children.Important things that Debbie's step-children have taught her about being a step-parent.An example of a boundary that Debbie has set with the children she has raised.Sharon explains how she manages her relationship with her great niece. How Debbie balanced her work life and her home life when she was looking after foster and step-children.Debbie's approach to parenting with regard to school work and appointments. A story which highlights the importance of having a safety net if you are embarking on a journey with traumatized children.Advice for anyone who is looking after, or thinking of looking after, children who are not biologically theirs.The importance of focusing on your relationship with your partner (if you have one), as well as your relationship with your children. Click Here To Download Transcript

Tweetables: “Maybe the most successful model for a junior developer advocate program would be one at a company large enough that could have them do product rotations.” — @GloomyLumi (https://twitter.com/gloomylumi?lang=en) [0:35:23] “I feel like KPIs are kind of, it's that classic criticism of measuring something because it's measurable, rather than measuring the things that you need to keep track of like, it's just quantitative data.” — Tessa [0:08:30] “I started thinking about what are the parts of my job that I love and what is the part of the job that I don't like, and then try and look at what kind of job fits the job that I love. And everything seemed to fit into developer advocate.” — @debs_obrien (https://twitter.com/debs_obrien) [0:40:54] “Having worked on small, medium, and large codebases, I know one of the big things that I think you need to keep in mind when you're doing developer advocacy is, ‘Okay, how do you integrate this with an already existing project?'” —@fimion (https://twitter.com/fimion) [0:32:58] “There should probably be a starter role, maybe it's not a junior developer advocate, maybe it's like a content creator and then you kind of go up because you could be a very, very, very good content creator, and not necessarily be a developer advocate.” — @debs_obrien (https://twitter.com/debs_obrien) [0:35:50] Links Mentioned in Today's Episode: Surrounded by Idiots (https://bookshop.org/books/surrounded-by-idiots-the-four-types-of-human-behavior-and-how-to-effectively-communicate-with-each-in-business-and-in-life/9781250179944) Debbie on Twitter (https://twitter.com/debs_obrien) Debbie on Github (https://github.com/debs-obrien) Debbie's Website (https://debbie.codes) Debbie on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/c/DebbieOBrien) Debbie on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/debs_obrien) GitHub Copilot (https://copilot.github.co) StartUp (https://www.netflix.com/title/80154285), Netflix Airods Max (https://www.apple.com/airpods-max) Elgato Stream Deck (https://www.elgato.com/en/stream-deck) Cozy Grove (https://cozygrovegame.com/), (Apple Arcade, Steam, Epic Games Store, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation) Rollerblade-style casters (AXL Milk Tea) (https://www.amazon.com/Replacement-Computer-Protect-Rolling-Universal/dp/B086RDFGKQ) dustbuster® Pivot Vac™ Cordless Hand Vacuum (https://www.blackanddecker.com/products/home-cleaning/vacuums/handheld-vacuums/dustbuster-pivot-vac-cordless-hand-vacuum/bdh2000pl) How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk (https://bookshop.org/books/how-to-talk-so-kids-will-listen-listen-so-kids-will-talk-9781451663884/9781451663884),  Adele Faber & Elaine Mazlish Rowntree's Fruit Gums (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rowntree%27s_Fruit_Gums) (English Tea Store (https://www.englishteastore.com/nestle-rowntrees-fruit-pastilles-bag-170g.html)) Special Guest: Debbie O'Brien.

Debbie also reveals the eight steps of her hypnotic blueprint, the questions she asks, and how to use the blueprint in the hypnotic work you do. “The blueprint serves as the suggestion base.

EMEA Recruitment was pleased to invite Debbie Brupbacher, a Leadership Transformation Coach and Co-Founder of Permanent Beta, to the podcast. “Time is one of the greatest gifts you can give to yourself.” Debbie spoke to Paul Toms, our Founder, from her home in Bern, Switzerland, where she's spent the “best quality time” with her teenager daughter during the COVID-19 pandemic. She speaks about the three things she's learned during this period: resilience, reflection and growth.  Debbie explains how we're all leaders at some point during our lives; a large part of the work she does with clients is to bring that out and help them reach their full potential. While some professionals evolve as a leader during their careers naturally, others find having a coach can help them lead a fulfilling life. So, how do busy people find the time for self-reflection? Debbie believes that it could just be taking your coffee into the garden without your phone – it's personal and should be easily built into your schedule.  In fact, becoming more conscious of yourself and how you behave as a leader is one of the key skills that great leaders need, she explains. One of the biggest hurdles she sees is people investing the time in working on themselves.  Debbie previously worked in Finance; she was first introduced to Paul when she worked for eBay. It was during her 40s that she had a moment of reflection herself and realised that she wanted something different in her career. After working with a coach, Debbie saw clearly that helping and developing people gave her a lot of energy.  Interestingly, she doesn't credit one person with inspiring her life choices. Instead, Debbie tries to find inspiring moments with everyone that she meets. Nevertheless, there is one comedian that she always thinks about when she's fearful and self-conscious – listen to the episode below to find out who.  Although she tries to make team exercises fun in her work, Debbie does explore how technology and data can be used to help others grow. For self-learning purposes, she feels that we should embrace data, but she also believes that social connection is essential. Debbie offers her advice for leaders bringing new people into their teams and what they should look for. She is confident that the best teams are more diverse. Paul ends the episode by asking Debbie, who comes across as very calm and considered, whether there's anything that really gets her flustered – listen to the episode to find out how she gets her frustrations out!

With clients, we want to focus on providing excellent service – which is a great thing – but it’s important to wow the client from the beginning. That’s where homework comes in. Before communicating with a client, take the time to look them up. What exciting things have they been doing? Have they been featured in any articles recently? Find out a little bit about them. By doing this, you’re sure to wow them from the beginning. Homework can also do the work of finding clients for you. By putting yourself out there, explaining who you are, and showing your tract-record, clients will be able to find you online and immediately begin to build a relationship with you. In this episode, Debbie Lang shares how homework has helped her in her business.

Week after week, you all hear me talk about the life-changing benefits of proper nutrition, hydration, and sleep. But I don't want you to just take my word for it! Hear these incredible testimonies from these four REBELS on the brink - a lifetime of obesity, sickness, pain, and suffering only to be reversed with Code Red. Dan, Debbie, Yvonne, and Brittany have had tremendous health healing and success living the Code Red lifestyle. I want to take a moment and highlight and mention that while weight loss was something each of them experienced, it was far down on the list of the benefits they experienced from taking their lives back.  At 56 years old, Dan, a Navy veteran, a husband, a father, and was dealing with serious prostate problems, and his weight was ballooning even on his strict vegan diet. Debbie was humiliated on a plane. She was 305 pounds, trying to fit into an airplane seat and couldn't get the seat belt to buckle. And that was her start to losing 155 pounds on Code Red. Yvonne lost her brother to obesity and was heading down that same path she lost her brother on. And Brittany, a nurse practitioner who went to nurse practitioner school because she wanted to learn how to heal herself because traditional medical doctors were not giving her the answer.

Most people know that divorce can take a financial toll. So what’s the best way for clients to protect their assets during a divorce? And more importantly, how can you help your clients plan for the future given their new financial reality? Today’s guest will answer these questions and more. Debbie Hartzman is a financial advisor, holding CFP, CLU, CDFA (Certified Divorce Financial Analyst), TEP and CEA designations. She’s also an author and a national expert on helping individuals undergoing separation or divorce proceedings. Listen in to hear what she has to say about becoming an advisor, understanding the nuances of working with divorcing or separating couples, and the benefits of using a financial advisor during separation or divorce. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Understanding the difference between separation and divorce (12:30) The benefit of having a financial advisor during a divorce (16:20) The tax implications of divorce (29:10) How Debbie approaches potential conflicts of interest (23:30) How new advisors can begin specializing in divorce (48:30) Staying focused when helping clients through a separation (53:40) Links and Resources: Hartzman and Associates To order Debbie’s book, Divorce isn’t Easy, But it Can be Fair, contact her through her website above. Quotes by Debbie Hartzman: “If I’m going to be in this business, I’m going to be that bus driver. I’m going to be the coordinate between the lawyer, between the accountant, and the client so that there’s somebody watching the big picture and helping the client make good financial decisions.” “That’s where my value comes in. It’s being able to help them understand how that’s going to impact them not today, not tomorrow, but in ten or fifteen years down the road.” “I wouldn’t be a good planner if I didn’t plan for myself. So my plan for myself was: I love this business, I love giving back, I love helping people, but I also want to do it on my terms instead of the business running me.” Now approaching a quarter-century in the business, Debbie has (literally) written the book on having a divorce that is fair and ensures long-term financial stability. Coming from a legal background, she understands how to work with lawyers to help clients make the most of marital separation. Below, we’re sharing three key ideas from this episode: The benefit of having a financial advisor during a divorce Staying focused when helping clients through a separation How new advisors can begin specializing in divorce

Meet Debbie Sterling, the Founder and CEO of GoldieBlox and a woman disrupting the pink aisle.For many women, our childhood toys consisted of Barbies, kitchen sets, and other variations of princess obsessions. And while we may have fond childhood memories with those toys, our male counterparts were being introduced to Legos, video games requiring strategy, and, following the male daredevils they saw projected on the screen. What we didn’t know was that those gender stereotypes and messages would stick with many of us long-term and even impact our career choices. And that’s exactly why Debbie Sterling, a Stanford-educated engineer, created GoldieBlox, a media and toy company that helps tackle the gender gap in STEM for young women. From years spent researching gender difference and talking with neuroscientists to a successful Kickstarter campaign that raised over $1 million dollars in pre-orders, GoldieBox is empowering girls every day and Debbie’s story is one you just have to hear directly.

Gentle Carousel’s teams of tiny therapy horses visit over 25,000 adults and children each year inside hospitals, hospice programs, and with families who have experienced traumatic events.   These little horses are always ready to go — helping to comfort survivors and first responders of the mass shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT; the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, SC; and the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, FL.

It takes a certain level of skill, a problem-solving attitude, and more than a dash of creativity to throw a spectacular wedding. Between coordinating the client’s vision, compiling vendor partners, troubleshooting setup, and sending the bride down the aisle, wedding planners have a lot on their plate. After creating absolutely stunning weddings and high-profile events for 20 years, Debbie Geller, my guest today, knows a thing or two about event planning and design. Geller Events operates out of Los Angeles, but she’s been designing events all over the world. Her high-profile clients come from a long legacy of word-of-mouth business. She does little to no PR, instead relying on client referrals and legacy clients who keep coming back for Debbie’s personalized touch on everything from weddings to corporate events. She breaks some of the typical event planning stereotypes to provide a unique experience tailored to each couple. Debbie is the heart and soul of her business, though none of these events could be accomplished without the help of her teams. Today, Debbie will share with us how she creates an environment where the clients, the vendor partners, and her team all feel valued and cared for. If Geller Events is a ship, then Debbie Geller is the captain, and it’s all hands on deck. “There is no such thing as a typical wedding because all of our couples are unique. We focus on getting to know the couple very well.” ~ Debbie Geller The secret sauce to Debbie Geller's amazing success is the amount of time and personal attention she puts into every event. If there is a snag with the venue or a last minute emergency, Debbie assures her client that is her problem, not theirs. Debbie’s dedication to every step of the process is absolutely inspiring. We all have a thing or two to learn from her experience, and as Debbie will say, "Experience is everything!" Listen this week as we learn a thing or two about how to throw a fantastic event! Show Highlights: Debbie shares with us why she started cooking, and how food makes wherever she lives, feel like home. After working in real estate and law, Debbie left when the wedding biz came knocking at her door. Early on, cold calling was the key to Debbie’s success. Hear all about the kinds of high-profile events Debbie works on. How Debbie builds a creative team to execute an event. The process of a “typical wedding” from start to finish. The story of the favorite wedding of all time. Debbie takes care of her teams. A tale of the biggest and hardest event that Debbie has ever worked. What Debbie loves about doing events for families. Personal touches for the guests create business through legacy clients. How Debbie is a workaholic who takes care of herself. Debbie defines success by the excitement and next-level commitment to an event. The internet has been the biggest change for Debbie to build up the best team.   Connect with Debbie: [Debbie's Website] [Debbie on Instagram]

Welcome to this episode #26 of the Mother’s Quest Podcast, “Surrender and Embracing Difference” with TiLT Parenting for Differently-Wired Kids founder Debbie Reber. This conversation about seeing diversity as an asset, valuing and embracing difference, couldn’t come at a better time. Debbie Reber is the founder of TiLT, an online destination aimed at helping parents raising differently-wired kids do so from a place of confidence, connection, and peace. She’s also host of the TiLT Parenting Podcast, a life coach, speaker and a New York Times bestselling author of books aimed at raising self-esteem for young girls. Before becoming a writer, Debbie worked in children’s television, for a relief and development organization and at UNICEF. Despite this long list of accomplishments, perhaps the greatest thing Debbie has done is become parent, advocate, homeschooler and champion for her own son Asher who is 13, has Aspergers, ADHD and is profoundly gifted. After years of struggle with Asher, Debbie and her husband took a leap of faith in 2013, moving from the U.S. to Amsterdam where she stepped into her own hero’s journey to acceptance, surrender, and presence. In the process, she and Asher have come to an exceptional place, and share their lessons learned, wisdom and real life experiences to make sure other parents of differently-wired kids don’t have to journey alone. Debbie and I had an amazing conversation, about faith, personal transformation through parenting and how to live an E.P.I.C. life of alignment. Debbie invites us to question hidden beliefs about neurodiversity, explore the judgements we make about children who are “differently-wired” and invite us to become more compassionate as a result. She’s also invited us to take her TILT 7 day challenge to support ourselves to gently shift our awareness. This conversation was a year in the making and it was really powerful for me. I was reminded about the gifts our children bring us, even when they don’t come in the ways that we expected and it renewed my commitment to show up fully for my own children, embracing their differences and surrendering to the knowledge that life is a journey and not a destination. Special Message for All of Us I want to note that I bring this episode to you at a unique moment. At the time of this recording, the nation has endured tragedy and division in the wake of events at Charlottesville, fueled by hatred and fear about our differences. Days later, the universe provided us with awareness that we are bound together by something bigger than ourselves as people everywhere took in the total solar eclipse with awe. The definition of eclipse means to darken and block out the light. We eclipse the light and love, and our common humanity, when we fail to recognize, understand, and celebrate our differences, whether that difference comes from the way our brains think in the case of differently-wired kids, the color of our skin, or the religion we follow. But, as Debbie so eloquently describes in our conversation, when we can see diversity as an asset and embrace difference, everything changes. When I noticed that Miki DeVivo, another mom raising differently-wired kids, was launching her beautiful book of poetry this week, “The Naming of Real Things,” I asked if she would choose a piece for me to share as a lead into what felt like a sacred conversation with Debbie, as a prayer and invitation for all of us, during this challenging time, to move from darkness into more light, love and compassion for one another. Here it is... From Miki DeVivo’s  new book of poetry, the Naming of Real Things (shared with permission) Love More Love more fully. Let your love fill in all the cracks Like Japanese gold. Raise your heart To your lips and drink till you are full. Love more widely. Let your love widen beyond all the borders Inflicted by man. Raise your arms To the sky in blessings spread wide. Love more deeply. Let your love deepen beneath the surface Of skin and kin and the way we each choose to worship. Raise your eyes To see the raw humanity standing before you, pain and wisdom so deep. Love more fiercely. Let your love rage like fire and do not be silent. Raise your voice To power again and again, unflinching and fierce. Love more wildly. Let your love wild like flowers blanketing a meadow in the spring. Raise your feet To dance among the blossoms, growing wild. Love more warmly. Let your love warm the icicles of contempt that pierce your heart. Raise your glass To the fountain of hope until your cup runneth over, sweet and warm. Love more freely. Let your love free from the small box you were told would keep it safe. Raise your hands To pick the locks and set yourself free. This Week’s Challenge: Question and explore your beliefs about neurodiversity. Raise your awareness and step into more compassion with Debbie’s 7 Day Challenge. Topics discussed in this episode: How Debbie and I have connected as mothers of differently-wired boys, since Jonathan Fields and Harmony Eichsteadt, of The Good Life Project, made an introduction between us a year ago. How Debbie wrestled with an Evangelical Christian faith upbringing, the questions she explored about her own spirituality, and how she came to believe there is something greater that connects us all. The right turn Debbie’s career took from empowering young girls to championing her own “differently-wired” son and then building a community to support parents to champion their own. The unexpected gifts that raising Asher has brought to Debbie and her life and the key that helped her shift into acceptance. How Debbie followed her intuition and changed everything for the better, to make a big leap of faith, move to Amsterdam, and begin homeschooling Asher. Nature is Debbie’s church and how lacing up their shoes for long walks outside provides Debbie and Asher opportunity for deep connection. Debbie’s new book, coming out in spring 2018, to help parents of differently-wired kids realize they are not alone. How Debbie’s “self-interest” helps her prioritize creating space and time for herself. The quote from Shakepeare Debbie’s son Asher shared, on his podcast episode, as he reflected on the importance of risk and leaps of faith required in order to grow. Resources mentioned in this episode: Miki DeVivo’s book “The Naming of Real Things” The Good Life Project Episode 53 of The TILT Parenting Podcast: Debbie and Asher’s TiLT Parenting One-Year Anniversary Special where Asher talks about his sleep-away camp experience Episode 18 of the Mother’s Quest Podcast: YOLO (You Only Live Once) and other Milestone Reflections with my son Ryan Neale which Debbie and Asher listened to together TILT Parenting and the TILT Parenting Manifesto Debbie’s Differently Wired 7-Day Challenge TiLT Community Facebook Page Quote Asher used after his reflection on his sleep-away camp experience “Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.” -William Shakespeare Announcements Women Podcasters in Solidarity In this week after the events that took place in Charlottesville, I’m even more committed to a quest I’ve been on to understand the roots of racism and bigotry, how it still shows up today, and how I can become a better ally and advocate to fight against it.
