Running Your Business with Cancer

Cancer will not define you...
But, how will it change you?
You don't have to do it alone!

Deb was not expecting to receive the news that she had cancer once, let alone three times in less than 10 years. She not only survived but she also thrived, building a system for other professionals to help navigate the difficulties business owners and executives can face in their own journeys.

Been There... Done That

Cancer was an unexpected detour in Deb’s life—one that reshaped her purpose, her leadership, and her definition of success. It was never part of the plan. As the founder of Wise Women Communications over 20 years ago, Deb built a thriving marketing agency and became a trusted voice in the business world through her long-running podcast. Her focus was always on helping others succeed.

Then came cancer.

Deb emerged with a new mission: to help business leaders navigate their own diagnosis without losing their identity, momentum, or hope.

Today, she helps executives and entrepreneurs lead through cancer with clarity, strategy, and resilience. Her message is clear: You can run a business, fight for your life, and come back stronger.

“Deb’s focus is on building resilience and empowering professionals to take back control, while building a community of support. Deb is committed to your success and is there to help guide you through every step of your journey.”

Despite the challenging diagnoses and complications from treatment, Deb continued leading a successful marketing business while embracing her roles as a wife, pet parent, and active volunteer. Through her journey, Deb experienced the disconnect and despair of a system where cancer takes center stage. The power of community and informed decision-making led her to discover how to LIVE with cancer and thrive personally and professionally.

While navigating her journey, Deb became a certified Integrative Cancer Coach, with certifications in productivity, grief, happiness, and trauma-informed coaching. She has also received training in time management, meditation, and mindfulness. She is uniquely equipped as a strategic advisor to help guide business owners and executives through the emotional, physical, and professional struggles they will face. She has built a community of Warriors who are on this journey together.
