Deborah Kerby
Transformation Strategist and Retirement Guide
As a Ziglar certified Life Coach, I am here to walk beside you on your journey to the life you have always dreamed of. Let us redefine retirement not as an end, but as the beginning to the part of your life where you are in the driver’s seat. As your partner in life transformation, I will help you figure out where you want to be, identify anything holding you back, and help you make a plan to make your dreams into your reality. I will be with you every step of the way. How can I help you to retire with a sense of peace and security?
I have been through many seasons in my life, and I have learned a great deal during all of them. Hats I have worn include daughter, a wife, and mother, as well as Auntie and Bubbe (Russian for Grandma). I have driven a taxi, served as an accountant, desktop technician, database designer, and a computer programmer, and spent nearly 25 years as a public school teacher. I am excited to now use my knowledge and skills to help you fulfill your potential. Nothing makes me happier than having the opportunity to help those who come across my path.
I have accomplished many things in my life. I finished my undergraduate degree at the age of 30 while rising a family, completing the last 40 credits in 18 months! At 35 I ran a marathon. I completed a doctoral degree program with teenagers in a house as well as a spouse suffering through chemotherapy. I have owned rental properties and turned homes that were in bad shape into lovely living environments. I am currently working as a Transition Coach in the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. In addition to assisting people and achieve personal and professional success, I am writing, practicing Reiki, and training in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. I believe in living life to the fullest.
I have not done these things on my own. I had people to walk alongside me, hold me accountable, and lift me up when I needed it. This is what I offer to my coaching clients. I believe in strong community and know that it takes intention and persistence for this to develop. I know that we all have special giftings to share with each other, and when we share we serve our community and take steps to creating a better world.
