Send us a text

Debbie Weiss is a speaker, author and course creator who found herself placed in a caregiving role at 17 years old when her father had a massive stroke. That wasn't the end of her caregiver roles however, as she also experienced a special needs child and her husband who needed care until he passed away. Eventually she figured out that she had lost herself.
She speaks with Kim about her feelings of being burdened but having an "aha" moment when she turned 50 that set her on a path to self-discovery and purpose. A weekend with her friends also sparked a reminder of what she was like as a younger woman.
Debbie talks about learning to overcome a lifelong weight problem and learning to love public speaking as she found ways to take new chances even when she was scared to try. She offers a new way to think about self-care as well-it's not just bubble baths or a glass of wine.
Debbie shares her messages through her books: On Second Thought, Maybe I Can, and The Sprinkle Effect and her WEBSITE.
She also hosts a podcast called Maybe I Can.
