When love transforms your relationship with yourself, it transforms your personal life, your work, and the world. When your birth includes a near-death experience, you know you are in for a wild ride. A fifty-five-year roller coaster of triumph and burnout led to finding my life purpose more than five decades later. Mine is a story of hope. Yours can be too. As a life coach, organization transformation consultant, Reiki master, artist, author, and broadcast personality, I have pursued a lifelong passion for the transformative power of love. I help individuals and organizations learn to harness that power to step into their greatness. When we choose fear as our fuel, any of us—individuals and organizations alike—can become stuck in the “hamster wheel” approach to life. Trapped by the mistaken belief that busyness is the same as purpose, we can’t stand the way we’re living but feel powerless to change. As we work together, my clients discover what I discovered: when you fall in love with yourself, everything else falls into place, personally and professionally. Choosing love as your core energy automatically enhances every aspect of your life: your perceptions, opportunities, relationships, and priorities. You get unstuck, reclaim your personal power, and recapture your zest for living, moving yourself forward into a life you love. Instead of choosing to live as a victim of circumstance, consider embracing the power of loving yourself unconditionally through insights, encouragement, clear strategies, and practical tools built on • my personal journey, including a sustained eighty-pound weight loss, freedom from a ten-year bout of debilitating depression, and finding my purpose guiding others on their journeys; • living in flow, a fluid Journey to Wholeness grounded in who you are being not what you are doing; • the Discovery Framework that grew out of my experience, including core energy, sensory balance, and your personal board of directors; and • Lessons in Living inspired by the journeys of my clients. What’s love got to do with it? Everything!
About Deborah Jane Wells
What's love got to do with minimizing stress and getting unstuck? Everything, according to empowerment coach and inspirational speaker Deborah Jane Wells, author of Choose Your Energy: Change Your Life!
Starting her professional career as an Organization Transformation Consultant in 1975, over the next 30 years, Deborah went on to serve as a Senior Partner in four of the world's largest and most prestigious global professional services firms.
Despite her positions and fancy titles, people at all levels were drawn to her. While the wind-up toys on her desk and the rubber chicken hanging from her ceiling may have engaged everyone’s curiosity, it was her combination of piercing intellect and playfulness that put people at ease.
Deborah had some wonderful times in that 30-year career. Coached, taught and encouraged clients and colleagues to claim their personal power and step into their greatness. But 51 years of the "hamster wheel" approach to life, with little regard for her personal health and welfare, finally took their toll. A poster child for professional burnout—exhausted, morbidly obese and clinically depressed—in 2005, she took a five-year sabbatical to find healing and peace.
In 2008 and 2009, Deborah hit bottom. She lost three loved ones in five weeks and found herself living alone for the first time in her life when her husband of 17 years took an important assignment in Washington, D.C. That "alone time" became a crucible in which Deborah transformed herself physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Her recovery from burnout, including a sustained 80-pound weight loss and freedom from 10 years of debilitating depression, led to finding her purpose guiding others on their journeys.
Through healing and self-exploration, she discovered that loving yourself unconditionally is the key to transforming your personal life, your work and the world. Deborah’s books, blog, radio show and signature coaching programs help individuals and organizations harness that same transformative power of love to step into their greatness.
For fun, Deborah loves singing, reading, sewing and movies. She currently lives in Aurora, Colorado with her husband, Wilson, and the three Coaching Cats who manage her life—SiddhaLee, Mortimer and Maisy Jane.
