Mastering Time Management: Debby J's Tips & Tricks: (this list could be really long, so I'm only dishing out my top of the top tips)

In the fast pace of modern life, where ambitions collide with aspirations, the art of time management becomes not just a skill but a sanctuary.

This guide will navigate you through the process of mastering time management, ensuring that...

Tolerating stress has become so common.

For some, it's a source of bonding and a default conversation starter (gritching about XYZ) and for others, it can actually be a shot of adrenaline (an unhealthy source of energy).

But here's the deal-eo...

Stress is a choice, even the most stressful situations. You can choose to get caught up in the drama of stress (be reactive) or you can choose to be present and mindful...

Effective communication is a cornerstone of leadership and business success. It's not just about transmitting information- it's about building relationships, fostering trust, and facilitating collaboration.

As leaders and business owners, navigating conversations with employees, clients, and even rectifying missteps is vital to your success AND your sustainability. In this post, I share strategies for providing...

I've always been a positive, upbeat kinda Gal, but I can assure you- I have my moments (just not and many as I used to, thanks to coaching).

Back in my less stable, up & down days, my creative mind worked overtime- concocting wild stories about who I was, who everyone else was and how other people saw me (and what they thought about me, and what they said about me, because of course, I was the focus of every conversation,...

On Valentine's Day, our minds turn to expressions of love and affection for others. Amidst the flurry of romantic gestures, let's not forget one crucial relationship- the one we have with ourselves. Nurturing this relationship is paramount, and one powerful way to do so is through continuous learning.

Assessments have become quite popular. Most of us have engaged in some kind of an assessment, whether it's a requirement for work or because it's a popular craze that everyone's doing. From Enneagram and Myers Briggs to DISC and 16 Personalities, people love to share and compare their results.

In this post, I'll dive into the topic of assessments- exploring both the WHAT and WHY. I'll also provide a short list of my 4 favorite...

Every year since 2016, I've followed the same routine to plan my life for the year. The planning typically takes me the entire month of January (yes, all 31 glorious days). I like taking time to sit, simmer and sift through all my ideas and options, without forcing or rushing.

Curious what I sit, simmer and sift through in my yearly planning routine?

Well, it's your lucky day! Today, I'm sharing my Yearly Life Planning...

Last week I teased you about sharing the "word of the year" concept. I also shared my Word for 2024 is "INTRODUCING," and it's motivating me to write this (even though I'm on vacation, and what I really want to do is go to bed, but my word is reminding me how excited I am to INTRODUCE my favorite part of yearly planning to YOU).

Without further ado, I'm here to INTRODUCE you to a concept that may be just what you need to stay...

So much to CELEBRATE- Happy New Year and Happy 4th Birthday to The Roots Group!
 
I launched my Coaching & Consulting Practice back on January 9, 2020. Truth be told, most people still don't know I have this business.
