Work With Debra
DOUBLING REVENUE IS POSSIBLE
Debra Sunderland works with CEOs and founders who want to strengthen leadership at the top of their organizations and restore revenue velocity.
Her work focuses on identifying leadership blind spots, shifting the patterns that slow execution, and creating what she calls Invisible Wins—the leadership shifts that improve trust, decision-making, and performance, leading to increased revenue velocity.
Outcomes Are Feedback
In Debra’s work, unwanted outcomes are feedback—not failure.
They reveal the leadership patterns shaping decisions, meetings, and team behavior.
When leaders recognize these patterns, they gain the power to change them.

Step 2: Revenue Velocity Debrief
After completing the assessment, CEOs can schedule a conversation with Debra.

Identify the leadership blind spot revealed in the assessment
Understand how it impacts executive team dynamics
Recognize patterns affecting decision speed and trust
Explore the Invisible Wins that restore momentum
Many leaders gain immediate clarity during this conversation.
Step 4: VIP Leadership Intensive
For CEOs ready to accelerate growth, this one- or two-day intensive creates space to step out of day-to-day operations and focus on high-level leadership and business strategy.
During this experience, leaders:
Gain clarity on long-term vision and priorities
Identify patterns limiting growth and execution
Define actionable steps across quarterly, monthly, and weekly levels
Strengthen leadership approach to improve team performance and trust
When appropriate, Debra may also conduct a leadership culture survey to gather insight from the executive team.
These intensives are designed for CEOs leading companies in the $10M–$100M+ range.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
“Where do I even begin with the work I’ve done with Debra? The greatest gift she has given me is helping me become deeply self-aware and emotionally intelligent. She guided me inward, back home to myself. Her principles and philosophies are not surface-level tools; they are healing. This work is the hardest work there is: the inner work, and it’s ongoing. Because of Debra, the way I see life has fundamentally shifted. The way I interpret situations, respond to challenges, and make decisions is different than it used to be. I’m more aware when I’m making reactive decisions driven by fear, urgency, scarcity, control, or the need to have the answer immediately. More often now, I can pause, breathe, and listen to myself first. I’m increasingly tuned into my own inner wisdom. Debra has taught me that the answers I’m searching for aren’t outside of me; they already exist within me. Through her work, I’m learning the power of breath, the power of words, and the discipline of choosing responses that are aligned rather than impulsive. This ongoing practice has changed how I lead and how I run my business. I make clearer, more grounded decisions more consistently than before. I listen more deeply, hold space more effectively, and respond with greater intention.
My relationship with my business continues to evolve. But even more importantly, my relationship with my husband and my children has shifted in meaningful ways. I’m showing up with more presence, more compassion, and more steadiness, while still learning every day. I wouldn’t say Debra changed who I am. She’s helping me remember who I am, again and again, as I continue to grow.”

“We've been working with Debra since the early days of Spinach.io and she's been instrumental to building our team and culture foundations.
The work with Debra, focused on Conscious Leadership, has helped us foster a culture of taking responsibility, openness and connection. Through the work with Debra our team has become better at communicating and collaborating - getting curious about other perspectives, revealing thoughts and working through conflict. It has also helped us optimize for keeping our team in their zone of genius, which has significantly improved outcomes.
The work with Debra around our enneagrams types has helped us both individually and collectively - see our strengths and limiting patterns, and better understand each other's motivations which led to more empathy.
Any team would be fortunate to work with Debra and see the impact her coaching can have. The sky is the limit!”

“The work I have done with Debra on being a conscious leader has been challenging but very rewarding. Being more present has not only improved leadership skills at work, but also how I interact with my family and friends. The lessons I have learned about detaching myself from outcomes and taking full responsibility for feelings has been life changing for me. I am now able to make clear decisions that support business growth instead of short changing my results by acting out of my triggers.”
