Chief Coaching Officer at Predictable Profits | Jupiter, FL

On behalf of the PPC Team, THANK YOU for an awesome 90 minutes. It was full of many tools and ways to cause us to shift our thinking for the better and be more of the powerful creators we are. It was excellent for me personally, too. Much appreciated. You are the best.

President at Schaeffer Consulting, LLC | Madison, WI

Debra is a phenomenal presenter. She can take you out of your comfort zone - but in a manner that makes you genuinely examine the “set-in-your-ways” thinking. And that’s how you grow. I found myself really exploring some inner dialogue that was holding me back from exploring my full potential and look forward to continuing that journey. She is engaging, inspirational, and effective.

Former Assistant Attorney General at Tennessee Attorney General's Office | Nashville, TN

Debra is an excellent and intuitive speaker. As a board member of a local women's bar association, I worked with Debra to plan her presentation at a recent symposium for female attorneys. Debra went beyond our expectations and provided a thought-provoking and memorable session where attendees were encouraged to respond and engage with her and other attendees. Debra is an effective communicator, which is exemplified in her presentation skills. Debra gave attendees a brief introduction into conscious leadership, and I personally left inspired to make changes in my work life. I would highly recommend Debra as a speaker at future conferences, lectures, or symposiums.

Professor of Leadership at Vanderbilt University | Nashville, TN

Conscious leadership is something we all need as leaders. Debra came to speak to my Leadership class at Vanderbilt University. My students hungered for her conscious leadership work. They departed seeing that sometimes their closely held perspectives or beliefs were causing them to be anxious or have inner conflict so common in students today. After we meet they saw that the the answer their conflicts were already inside of them --and they could only see this by noticing their hidden barriers and choosing a new thought and belief that brought a new result.

Choosing to "lead above the line" is what Debra's work is all about. Gen Z hungers to be engaged in authentic discussions of what it means to be a leader today. Debra knows how to do it! Need a speaker or workshop? Give Debra a call!

Compliance Audit Manager at Safeway Insurance Company | Chicago, IL

The Leaders Going Deeper Retreat in Nashville opened my eyes and heart to what it means to take radical responsibility. The retreat provided a safe and encouraging place in which to explore deeply and to respond honestly to the invitation of becoming responsible. Debra’s deep understanding and experience of The 15 Commitments Of Conscious Leadership along with her willingness to help others, revealed her as a perfect guide and coach into this new journey. This experience was intensely transformational and catalytic! I am looking forward to applying what I learned there to my every day and witnessing the results of being more present in my life. Thank you for your deep caring and clarity, Debra.

Director of Community Engagement at Leadership Everyone, Inc. | Evansville, IN

Debra Sunderland brings her whole self into her practice and you are invited to meet her there. Her half day session on Conscious Leadership and the Enneagram gave me another set of tools to apply to my self-work. Her generous resources will allow me to revisit game-changing strategies as I continue connecting myself and others to greater good. Life is a wonder and I'm deeply grateful for the chance to experience Debra's gifts!

Attorney & Shareholder at The Law Office of John Day, P.C. | Brentwood, TN

Debra was an outstanding speaker for our bi-annual women's symposium for women lawyers. She offered tangible strategies for managing stress and elevating our leadership skills. Attendees found her to be thought-provoking and inspirational.

CEO & President at Nashville Public Radio | Nashville, TN

I was not sure what to expect from our management retreat with Debra, but every member of our senior team was blown away and left eager to continue working with her. She swiftly identified long-standing issues and perceptions that prevented us from working together as an effective team. Using empathy and understanding she gave us several tools we could use to reduce conflict. We're grateful to have discovered someone who can accompany us on the path to becoming more conscious leaders and in the process, reduce the stress and strain that is a byproduct of managing and living an unconscious life.

Recruiter & Sorcer Consultant at Wheatfield Partners | Des Moines, IA

I took part in Sunderland Coaching’s Leaders Going Deeper Retreat, in Nashville, and I deem it to be one must-attend event - I highly recommend it! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the 1 and a 1/2-day immersion was beyond any experience I have ever had in any of the retreats I have attended in my life. It challenged me on professional, emotional and spiritual levels. It gave me an opportunity to reevaluate my thinking and what choices and thought process have held me back. The retreat was a deep dive in why I think the way I do and also it created a space for me to be conscious about my leadership style. Since the retreat, I have often referred by to my notes and the reading materials. This retreat is for individuals who are not afraid to analyze their thinking and who have the desire to grow. It is not for the faint of heart. This retreat will challenge you and you will come out truly like a new person. Additionally, the participants made this event very unique. Their transparency in sharing their experiences made me realize how human we all are and that despite previous suffering, we no longer have to when we decide to be conscious about the way to live our lives. Debra’s own personal life experience makes her a gift to this world! Debra embodies both empowerment and being an authentic shepherd during this journey of self-discovery. Thank you, Debra, for the opportunity to learn how to choose to live above the line as well as teaching the discipline to become a conscious leader! I will be forever grateful for the impact you have made in my life!

Business Development Specialist and Product Manager | Nashville, TN

I've been fortunate to learn about Conscious Leadership, from Debra at the Nashville Entrepreneur Center, and at the Leaders Going Deeper Retreat. Debra teaches this work through modeling and challenging behavior change. From an organizational perspective, I've learned about staying in my own lane, recognizing what I cannot control, and practicing candor in communication - all tools that will help me unify, lead and attract collaborative, positive individuals. On a personal level, Debra's mentorship has given me the language and insight to acknowledge a life of abundance and choice, and further joyful pursuits of creativity and generosity with other people.

“The Retreat with Debra was exactly the trigger I needed to get me started on a life changing journey. Her ability to connect people with themselves opens the right doors that inspires life transformation."
