Join us as we dive deeper into the emotional narrative and the 3 P's: Pervasive, Permanent, and Personal story. We explore the irreducible needs of children and how unmet needs shape our emotional stories. Deb shares her personal challenges with spirituality in her daily life, and we have an insightful discussion on failure, quiet, and gratitude.

She has been in Colorado Springs 30 years, and served on many boards and commissions. She has spent time in both the non-profit and business sectors throughout her career, and loves how the two, together, have influenced her work in philanthropy. With a background in neuropsychology, she also convenes the Colorado Mental Health Consortium, a group of 50 individuals state-wide advocating for mental health/behavioral legislation.
