Some of you might know me as Debbie “Machine” … the mother of YouTuber, Jenna Marbles. But that alone doesn’t qualify me to write a book about finding meaningful work for people younger than myself.
My own journey led me to be a clerk, a consultant, a waitress, a teacher, a competitive intelligence analyst, an entrepreneur and a mentor. I’ve worked in huge corporations and startups….as well as for the government and non-profits.
Some of these jobs held no meaning, others fed my soul but none more than my current journey supporting seekers - people who want something more from their work, something better.
I have a deep belief that each of us is special, just as we are. Once we recognize ourselves that way, doors open that we never thought possible. I believe in each individual's ability to find meaningful work. My contribution is the effort is encouragement, ideas and tools.
I live happily in the Northwest US with my terrier, the trees and the mountains.
