Happy Clients

“Deb's insights and expertise come from her own hands-on experience and knowledge in building and fostering communities which makes what she has to share so relatable and applicable. In a short amount of time, she was able to help bring some much-needed clarity in my next steps and what I really want to be moving toward.”

"I can’t recommend Deb highly enough for community growth and development. Her expertise in this space is second to none. She listens intently and has the ability to see past problems and issues to formulate workable solutions that get results quickly. Deb has a great blend of being very personable and approachable with being very strategic and focused. She asks lots of incisive questions that make you think in new ways to get to implementable solutions. Love working with her."

“Deb is a community aficionado. She interviewed me on her community podcast and it was apparent that she is a thought leader in community management and engagement. When Deb joined one of our programs later as a beta tester she immediately jumped into helping manage and engage the members of the program on the community platform Mighty Networks. It was great to know that she truly cared and supported other members and me as the host of the program.”

Deb is multi-talented and multi-energetic, able to match skills and responsive energy to a situation and its needs. Deb was instrumental in helping to identify gaps in the outreach strategy of our playback theatre troupe, hybrid performing company and wider community of practice. And she was adept at helping us efficiently fill them. Perhaps most importantly, Deb brings an enthusiasm to her work and life that drives the quality of that work and shows through her writing and other expressions with great contagiousness. What a partner and catalyst!

“Working with Deb really helped us shore up our strategy and clarify some things that I don't think would have been possible without her guidance and perspective. She fully delivered on what we needed help with!”

“Working with Deb was a lovely journey. The name ‘Find Calm Here’ 100 percent fits what Deb does. She entered into the conversation with a calm attitude. In a month, I went from being frustrated and not knowing what to do – to being calm and confident in building, growing, and working inside my network. She knows her stuff!”

"Deb takes something that feels so overwhelming and simply settles you into a foundation. She has this ability to keep you focusing on your North Star while at the same time creating space for the unknown. She is brilliant, she is calm and we couldn't have done this without her."
