Hi, My name is Debbie Saeger and I’m the founder of Heart & Soul Life Coaching. As I look back, my life has been very busy with my many roles and I enjoyed each change as it arrived. There were frequent moves for work, including some time abroad. Then there were all the different life stages—from single to married to stay-at-home mom to working mom to middle-age to...well, you get the idea. And through all of these stages, my focus was on my family and others who needed me.
Despite many life accomplishments, something was missing
As life moved on, I felt stuck and restless…until I met someone who helped assess my talents, gifts, and weaknesses. I learned what kinds of activities suit my strengths, experience, and personality. Not surprisingly, these were the activities that also felt meaningful and purposeful. I was good at them and they left me feeling energized.
Through a process of self-discovery and personal growth, I’ve now learned to embrace the tasks and projects that give me energy and purpose, while feeling enabled to say “no” to those that would drain my resources. I look forward to each day as it unfolds, having found my voice and a path forward that brings out my best self.
Now life feels just right
When I'm not coaching, I love spending time with my family! No, seriously—they are super fun and keep me laughing. They also keep me cooking, even though everyone is grown and has left the nest. When we aren't together, you'll find me cooking for friends, reading something…usually historical fiction, serving in my church, or exploring a new destination on my latest travel adventure.
What it’s like being a Whole Person Life Coach
After receiving the gift of discovering who I am and how I want to engage with life, it was evident that my strengths and experiences aligned perfectly with being a life coach for women. When I discovered the Whole Person Coaching program, a “holistic transformational coaching” method grounded in science and psychology, I knew I wanted to help other women find their “aha” moments and the path forward to living their best lives.
Whole Person Coaching sees you as a whole person, with a life and a purpose that addresses all of who you are: in mind, body, spirit, emotion, and social connections. My practice is named Heart & Soul Life Coaching because that is the life we all deserve—a life that serves our heart and our soul, a life where we feel complete.

Kind words from my clients
"Debbie has a great approach to coaching because her questions helped me gain a deeper sense of clarity and understanding that I would not have achieved on my own. Debbie’s authenticity, confidence, and sincerity increased my focus in developing a plan that I was able to immediately put into action."
