Hello, I'm Debbie. “For decades, I was in nonstop caregiving mode — first for my dad after a stroke, then for my two sons, including my oldest with autism and mental health challenges. By the time I was 50, I realized I had lost myself in responsibility. That was my turning point: if nothing changes, nothing will change. That reinvention became my foundation. And years later, when my husband faced a terminal diagnosis, it gave me the courage and resilience to walk through that season with strength I never knew I had. Now, I help women see that reinvention isn’t only for those navigating caregiving, grief, or financial chaos. It’s also for anyone who feels stuck or simply ready for more. And it doesn’t take giant leaps—it happens one sprinkle-sized shift at a time.”

Jesse Wood believes most people don't quit on their purpose. They quit on the price of it. As a keynote speaker, author, financial strategist, and minister, he helps people discover who God created them to be, plan for what their purpose will cost, and keep building until the work is done. Burned out on 90 hour weeks, walking through a divorce, broke, and watching his car get repossessed, he made God a promise: "I'll do whatever You tell me to do, no matter how crazy." That promise led him into financial services, where he ranked in the top 25 nationally in his first nine months, became a Senior Marketing Director, and led the number one marketing director team in his firm in 2024. In 2025 he was named the Fluxx Awards Financial Strategist of the Year and a Business Elite 40 Under 40 honoree. Jesse is the author of The Purpose-Driven Business Builder's Blueprint, host of The Jesse Wood Show, and co-founder and SVP of Revival Music Company, a Billboard #1 record promoter on the Gospel Airplay chart. He is a professional member of the Recording Academy. Whether he is keynoting a conference, preaching on a Sunday, or training a sales team, Jesse leaves audiences with a story they'll retell, a blueprint they can use Monday, and a call to Build Until.
