What if you could start over doing what you loved?
When Covid hit, Deb Porter asked herself that exact question. She had just begun an exciting new job but then was told that they weren’t able to pay her what they agreed on. Instead of sitting in despair, Deb leaned into her faith to identify a new path. She asked, what if I could do what I love? It was through that question, HOLD – Hearing Out Life Drama was born!
Deb’s experience as a minister in the Methodist Church and as a caretaker for her ill ex-husband was the perfect background to cultivate a listening first mentality that is the foundation of HOLD.
In today’s episode, Deb walks us through the trials and tribulations that guided her to start her business and what it’s really like to start a business at age 50.
