Simplifying Goal Setting for Busy Professionals with Debra Eckerling

Setting the right goals starts with knowing what you truly want, and Debra Eckerling is here to make it easier than ever to figure that out.

Deb Eckerling, the creator of the DEB Method, joins me to talk about how anyone can achieve their goals by first setting a strong foundation. Deb simplifies the process with her three-step system: Determine your mission, Explore your options, and Brainstorm your path (DEB for short). She shares how her new book, 52 Secrets for Goal Setting and Goal Getting, is packed with insights from experts across industries to inspire and guide readers. Deb also explains why goals don’t have to be overwhelming—they just have to work for you.

Her passion for helping people turn their dreams into action shines through, and she offers practical tips to help busy professionals create plans that lead to success, fulfillment, and even joy.

Highlights:

• Learn how to set the foundation for your goals by clarifying your mission and defining what success means to you.
• Explore why traditional methods like SMART goals may not work for everyone and how to adapt your approach.
• Discover how directed journaling can help you identify patterns, refine your priorities, and plan your next steps.
• Understand the importance of breaking down big goals into manageable benchmarks and action items.
• Find out how joy and personal passions can fuel your progress and positively influence other areas of your life.
