Hi, I’m Debbie Leoni!
There’s absolutely nothing more rewarding than to be a conduit for transformation. Even when I was a little girl, I always had a burning desire to help others find peace and joy, even though I didn’t realize it at the time. What I had to learn, though, was that in order to support others to my fullest potential, I had to first “cleanup” the areas of my life that were preventing my own transformation. And that showed up in various ways, such as: divorce, a family member dealing with addiction, not believing in myself and most recently, surviving cancer.
I feel like it was divine intervention in 2002 when I landed on the work of Debbie Ford, one of my teachers, mentors, coach and friend. Because of the training and work I did through the Ford Institute of Integrative Coaching, I am living my passion and dharma. Since then, I’ve been trained as a Spiritual Director, a Family Coach, Exectuvie and Leadership Coach, Spiritual Coach and an Enneagram Practitioner.
People ask me why I love what I do. It’s because I get to watch my clients change their lives from fear to fearlessness, from stuck to unstuck, from scarcity to abundance. And when this happens, they stop playing small. They stop believing that they are unworthy, uncapable and unlovable. And the results are beyond words. They leave toxic relationships. They find their soulmate, achieve ideal weight, double their income, find the ideal career, or finally check off items from their bucket list. No matter what, their confidence sky rockets!
How does this happen you ask? Well, what’s unique about my coaching is that I combine the performance aspect of coaching with the developmental aspect. You can set goals and often times achieve them, but if you are not understanding your internal world and why you make the choices that you do, your old patterns will unconsciously re-appear. I teach mindfulness because you can’t shift from fear to fearlessness if you don’t have the awareness level to create the necessary change.
When I look back and notice where I would be today had I not chosen to shift my world from fear to fearlessness, I wouldn’t have created a 17 year successful coaching practice,, led hundreds into fearlessness at my Being Fearless Intensives, authoring “I Am Fearless: 12 Elements of Fearless Living,” designed my 9 month program, Being Fearless Leadership Training, and so much more.
Outside of work, you’ll find me in nature with my dog, Daisy, gardening, being a foodie, and laughing!
My fear will never go away and that’s ok. Either will yours. But I now no longer allow my fears to paralyze me and you don’t have to either!
Blessings and light,
Debbie Leoni
