In our adversity lies our greatest gifts,
In our hardships lies our greatest opportunities.

Finding My Calling

Amber DeAnn obtained a BA in business and later a law degree from the University of Nebraska. She held various positions in business and banking before becoming a debt counselor in 1990. She was disturbed by the deep worry and stress that consumed the lives of people with financial problems. This stress started to affect her health and general well being. She started a personal journey to learn stress management techniques to conquer her own stress. What she discovered was that she first had to learn what emotional triggers were affecting her life and causing her stress.  As she worked with this emotional intelligence, she uncovered a wealth of information about human behavior and how to work with  challenges and turn them into  strengths.

As a workshop and webinar leader, self help author and speaker, Amber teaches these techniques that enable you to identify your stressors and transform them. This gives you a new higher degree of power, self identity, and self worth.

Amber’s unique educational and coaching programs are built on the belief that stress can be transformed into a wonderful ally, your Mind, Body and Spirit can be synchronized to produce  your personal power and move you toward a more fulfilling future. This future will allow you to live in and create from your passion and find your place in the  flow of life.

Creating My New life

Amber’s  various and sometimes agonizing life experiences created the person she is  today. It has allowed her to be an effective life/empowerment coach, workshop instructor, and behavior therapist, speaker and author because she know the feelings, the thoughts, the helplessness, hopelessness, chronic depression, physical ailments and other issues that go with life.

Her  journey taught her that self discovery and self identity are paramount to a self fulfilled life. She  knew others needed to learn this truth too. Now she teaches.

My Experiences With Emotions

I was happy and goal-driven at 22, frustrated about life at 23, bored and miserable at 26, into depression at 27, a rage addict at 35, sane and on my path at 42 and happy at 45. What happened? Several things.

My safe, secure, little world of school disappeared when I graduated from college and found myself in the real world without the life skills needed for success. In my abusive childhood, I had not learned emotional expression or self-love, had not found my career passion, and had not discovered my sense of humor. I did not know my strengths or weaknesses, life objectives or have any idea of how to have fun. The life skill I lacked was a strong connection to my emotions and the ability to understand their messages.

Here is what I learned –

• My depression was a self protective mechanism that covered up a lot of anger, protected me from hurting myself and others. It told me that I was not using my creativity to create my ideal life.
• My anger/rage was an attitude and a habit that I had acquired from my Mom. It told me that I was not happy with my life or my past. It showed me that I was being  a victim  and was being controlled by my family of origin.
• My fears lead me to find my Higher Self, and the guidance and direction for my life.

Now I had the power and the drive to create my life– my way.
