Episode 12: When the Doors Don’t Look Open – Finding Choice and Strength in Hard Times - Debbie Roberts
Guest: Debbie Roberts, Debbie Roberts Consulting
💡 Topic: Finding Choice and Strength in Hard Times
Episode Summary:
In this episode, I’m joined by the warm, wise, and wonderfully resilient Debbie Roberts—business coach, consultant, and a woman who’s walked through more than her fair share of life’s toughest seasons.
We talk about the truth that everyone will face hard times, and that while we can’t always choose our circumstances, we can always choose how we show up in them. Debbie shares how she turned grief, burnout, loss, and career crossroads into fuel for her next chapter—and how sometimes the open door is right in front of you, even if you don’t see it yet.
We explore:
• Why resilience is built, not born
• How to stay grounded in your values when everything feels shaky
• The power of community, connection, and service
• Why self-care is a non-negotiable
• How to make space for new beginnings, even after painful endings
If you’ve ever wondered, “Can I really keep going?”—this episode will remind you that you absolutely can.

✅ Resilience comes from small choices made every day
✅ You always have the power to pivot, even when the path looks unclear
✅ Sometimes opportunity is closer than you think—you just have to pause and look
