Debra’s podcast has a wonderful conversational format that is educational and leaves you with the opportunity to set a goal related to the topic. Fun, interesting and a great opportunity to learn about and connect with other professionals.
The DEB Show with Debra Eckerling is an excellent podcast that covers a wide range of topics related to goal-setting, productivity, entrepreneurship, and more. Debra’s conversational format is engaging and educational, leaving listeners with practical tips and the motivation to set and achieve their goals. The guests on the show are diverse and offer unique perspectives on the topics discussed. Debra’s kindness and skill as an interviewer shine through in every episode, making it a pleasure to listen to.
Deb’s show is amazing. Her guests are top notch and she keeps it lively, timely, on topic, and fun!
I really enjoy listening to these conversations. Not only does Deb bring really insightful people to the table, but the topics are much less in the weeds of how-to business stuff and more inspirational and motivational to bring bigger ideas to the table. And she does that while still being very business oriented. The productivity elements are outstanding, too. Just a good all-around listen for multiple reasons.
I really enjoy the format of Deb’s show where she invites multiple guests who share the same field of expertise. The guests build on each other’s ideas, which leads to a more meaningful conversation compared to having just one guest. Deb does an excellent job of guiding the dialogue, allowing each guest to share their insights in a way that is beneficial to the listener. I appreciate the variety of guests and topics Deb covers, which keeps the show fresh and engaging. I highly recommend tuning in!
At the start of writing my first cookbook, I was overwhelmed with task of niching down all of the overflowing ideas I had. I reached out to Deb who helped me hone in on what I wanted to achieve as a new cookbook author, which in return had turned into a best-selling Mediterranean cookbook! I’m very grateful for Debs professionalism and expertise in both entrepreneurship and writing.
“I wouldn’t have my book without Deb. Period. She was with me every step of the way from concept to printing. Her guiding hand knocked some sense into me more than once and I’m tremendously grateful. Under her tutelage, I made something I’m tremendously proud to have out in the world. She’s a cheerleader strategist wizard, and a damn good writer herself. I highly recommend her if your concept needs polishing or your strategy needs solidifying. Or, in my case, both!”
“What an engaging speaker and a beautiful soul. I learned so much from your speech about goal setting and The D*E*B Method! Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with all of us at the International Association of Career Coaches!”
We are so glad that we arranged for Debra Eckerling to be our opening plenary speaker at the California Creative Writers Conference 2022. She gave a splendid presentation about how to get the most out of a writers’ conference—before, during, and afterward. Considering the timing of her session, Debra focused mostly on “during the conference,” and her suggestions were as inspiring as they were practical. I took lots of notes. Debra’s opening talk was so helpful I hope we bring her back every year!
