Deborah believes that life is ‘too long’ to tolerate living a life that is anything but joyful and purposeful. In search of more fulfilling ways to authentically express herself and positively contribute to the world, Deborah has reinvented herself numerous times; She worked as a Physical Therapist, Organizational Consultant and for the last 19 years as a leadership coach, leadership trainer, and senior faculty member at the Co-Active Training Institute (www.coactive.com). She has the privilege of supporting individuals and teams to align with their compelling purpose and values and consciously create a deeply rewarding and productive experience of work and life.

Deborah began practicing Yoga when she was 14 years old at weekly classes for ~2-years in a tiny yoga studio in downtown Toronto. After a long hiatus she found her way back to a regular practice in 2013 and completed a YTT200 in 2015.

Deborah believes that both asana and the coaching conversation and their inherent philosophies are aligned and deeply transformational when entered into with the right spirit and intent.
