Episode 209: How To Bounce Back From Big Mistakes with Debbie Colbourn

My latest guest is Debbie Colbourn, who calls herself an adventurer, former sport car racer, mountain climber, world traveler and a grandma of 4. Her resume and interests are long and varied and she says she’s filled with a need to always be learning and trying new things.

A combination of 25+ years as a professional accountant and guiding 1 to 25 million dollar companies through their life stages, along with an education in Kinesiology, an active competition life in performance dog sports and a desire to improve her own dogs’ fitness for competition, led her, in 2011, to create The Summit, a 7,000 square foot training facility and her first online business: The Fit Body Fit Mind Dog.

In this interview Debbie and I talked about:

• How she created boundaries in her corporate work that supported her adventurous lifestyle
• Her very different and interesting hobbies
• Her biggest fear is and the event in her life that created it
• The ‘bounce back-ability’ that is so important when life hands us challenges

As a black sheep in her family, Debbie has had her fair share of struggles that carried over into her adult life. She is very open in sharing her lessons and says: “Every single human will face things that pull the rug out from under you, and the power comes from what you learn from that.”
