About Debbi

Certified Mindfulness Coach & Author

🌿 Meet Debbi — Founder of Haven Inspired

Born and raised in Philadelphia, Debbi is a compassionate mindfulness coach and emotional wellness advocate who helps people slow down, heal, and reconnect with themselves. Her own journey through life’s challenges, from major transitions to personal setbacks, has shaped her mission to help others rise with grace, self-compassion, and resilience.

Since 2020, Debbi has guided individuals and teams in building emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and sustainable calm through mindfulness and meditation. In 2021, she founded Haven Inspired, a space dedicated to emotional healing, workplace well-being, and meaningful self-growth.

In 2024, Debbi deepened her purpose by pursuing a Master’s in Counseling at Northwestern University, working toward clinical licensure. Her grounded and faith-informed approach blends practical mindfulness, emotional wellness, and gentle accountability, empowering others to embrace vulnerability, strengthen resilience, and live more intentionally one breath at a time.

✨ Faith-Informed, Universally Grounded
Debbi’s work honors both the spiritual and practical sides of mindfulness. While her personal faith is Christianity, her coaching and workshops are inclusive and accessible to people of all backgrounds and beliefs. Clients are invited to integrate mindfulness in ways that align with their personal values, faiths, and cultures.

At Haven Inspired, Debbi helps clients embody the core principles that define a true haven: to be Healthy, Authentic, Vibrant, Empathetic, and Nourished. These values shape every session, workshop, and mindful practice she offers creating space for restoration, reflection, and growth.

“Mindfulness changed my life for the better. It helped me

understand myself and others with more compassion and I

want to share that gift with as many people as I can.”

When she’s not leading workshops or coaching clients, Debbi facilitates community conversations around Black joy, faith-based mindfulness, and emotional well-being in the workplace. Her work bridges both personal healing and organizational growth helping people and teams build cultures where well-being truly thrives.
