Goals with DEB

I have collaborated with Debra on several different projects over the past year. She is a corporate consultant who can motivate individuals as well as organizations to determine the best plans that ensure better results than they would otherwise achieve on their own. A true goal-setting expert with deep experience in all aspects of planning, exploring, and recognizing achievements along the path to continuous success. Beyond all of that, it is her role as a very much in-demand event moderator and broadcast host where all her skills shine and freshen daily. Deb Eckerling hosts #GoalChatLive where she features leaders in business, the arts, technology and communications and she connects her guests with her audience in amazingly powerful ways.

When I set my sights on being a serious writer with attention-deficit, I had trouble focusing and felt overwhelmed. I found Deb’s Facebook page, Write On! Online and began following her posts and podcasts. Every Sunday she’d tell us to post our weekly goals, then at the end of the week, did we meet them? If not, why? Deb has a positive, enthusiastic, infectious energy that has made a difference for me as a new writer. By following her posts and listening to her podcasts, I’ve developed the self-discipline to stay on task, complete them, and remain focused. She helped me break down the novel writing process into bite-sized pieces that moved me forward each day, no matter how small the task. I’m now revising two novels that will be published within the year. If you want to be a published author, Debra Eckerling will get you there!

Debra Eckerling has been a terrific speaker for both The Greater Los Angeles Writers Society (GLAWS) and West Coast Writers Conferences (WC2). She is a professional presenter delivering on-target information for our attendees, and is also a great moderator. Debra always generates a warm, positive energy that inspires an audience. I recommend her.

I recommend Deb as a goal coach if you want to get your book out for the world to enjoy! Within the first hour of working with me and my writing partner, Debra brought awareness and focus on our project’s strengths. We also realized areas where our visions of the book were vastly different. These conversations were important to get us off on the right foot. Debra pushed us from merely discussing the book to actually writing the first chapter within days of our conversation.

LAX Coworking has had the pleasure of hosting two of Debra’s presentations in our space and she never disappoints! Debra is engaging, positive, and a must for entrepreneurs trying to set goals and take the next step in their business ventures. LAX Coworking is proud to have her as a contact and friend because she is absolutely fantastic!

I went to Deb from a recommendation of a friend and I am so glad I did! I was in the beginning stages of writing my cookbook and she helped me put all of my whirling thoughts into a cohesive and manageable process. Deb was my calm to my crazy and I can’t recommend her enough!

Debra helped each member of our group kick of the New Year right with her goal-setting workshop. She led us through thoughtfully designed worksheets that helped us think about where we want to be and how to get there. She also had great answers to our questions on how to be more productive and overcome obstacles to our goals. Her workshop served to bring together the participants as we learned about each others’ goals and dreams, a great and unexpected benefit. I highly recommend Debra’s services as a coach and workshop leader.

The nuggets Debra Eckerling sprinkled into my production of the SoMeDocs Lecture Series (“Even Doctors Need Life Lessons”) were gold, and remain with me to this date. In fact, I quoted her just the other day, sharing with my audience about her replacement of the standard “To-Do List” with a “Done List.” She’s clever, articulate, and a joy to listen to.
