Deborah is a working mother, co-parent, and step-mum. She began her career as a Drama and Movement Therapist, developing a groundbreaking practice within the Priory Group that was later featured on BBC Radio 4. After over a decade in the therapeutic world, she transitioned into the digital industries, spending ten years as a hybrid project/product manager, working both in-house and with some of the UK’s biggest agencies - including Somo (now CI&T) and Wunderman Thompson, now VML. As the sole breadwinner in a family of four, Deborah experienced first-hand the intensity of juggling agency life with the emotional and logistical demands of parenting. After COVID, she recognised the signs of burnout and began a journey to understand - and unpick - the systemic and personal pressures and behaviours that had led her there. During that time, she certified as a One of Many® coach, and has since developed a coaching approach that blends the emotional depth of her dramatherapy background with the clarity and accountability of her experience in tech. She now coaches in the UK and internationally, including speaking at the Hearth Summit in Malaysia.
