Send us a Text Message.

Ever think about how resilience can shape your life and the world around you? Deb Curtis did. Join me as I dive into an heartening conversation with Deb, a champion of diversity and resilience. You'll hear her poignant story of overcoming personal and professional adversities and how her father's love for fishing turned into a life lesson on resilience and hard work. She opens up about her journey from abandonment to forgiveness and how she turned her struggles into strength.

Deb's journey did not end there. She faced a string of hurdles in the corporate world as a woman and rose above them, paving the way for other women and people of color. Hear her spill the beans on how she championed diversity and inclusion in business ownership and why these experiences sculpted her mission to level the playing field. She paints a vivid picture of the challenges minority business owners face and her proactive approach to create solutions. 

In the final segment of our conversation, Deb hits home with her take on diversity and opportunities for success in corporate America. She stresses on the importance of keeping a check on bank owners and their management to ensure equal opportunities for all. But the cherry on top is her profound discussion on recognizing and nurturing our God-given gifts. In the end, Deb leaves us with her legacy of supporting women and people of color in business ownership and her unwavering commitment to fostering a diverse corporate America.
