Episode Description
What would you do if your spouse of many years decided she didn’t want to be married to you any longer and insisted you leave the home where you had been the committed, stay-at-home parent raising your four children? When this happened to Eugene Dale Holden, initially he hit rock bottom--including deep depression and attempting suicide. But, ultimately, with time and unflinching reflection came healing. Eugene embraced his agony as an opportunity for personal growth. Like the oyster who encounters sand inside his world, Eugene was able to transform his pain into a precious pearl. He awakened to his authentic purpose, reclaimed his personal power and recaptured his zest for living. With faith, hope and love, he shifted from victim to victory, breakdown to breakthrough, creating an authentic life he loves--one filled with peace, joy and gratitude. He found his calling as an inspired and inspirational minister of transformation--a teacher, musician and lover of life.

On Choose Your Energy, Change Your Life, Deborah Jane Wells and her guests help you become more insightful, creative, committed, and productive through clear strategies and practical tools.
Deborah helps individuals and organizations learn to harness the transformative power of love to step into their greatness. When we choose fear as our fuel, any of us—individuals and organizations alike—can become stuck in the hamster wheel approach to life. Trapped by the mistaken belief that busyness is the same as purpose, we can’t stand the way we’re living but feel powerless to change.
As they work together, Deborah’s clients discover that when you fall in love with yourself, everything else falls into place, personally and professionally. You get unstuck, reclaim your personal power and recapture your zest for living. When love transforms your relationship with yourself, it transforms your personal life, your work and the world. What’s love got to do with it? Everything!
Deborah Jane Wells
If you've ever had the opportunity to watch someone grow in a completely extraordinary way, you will understand what friends and clients mean when they say they love the very idea of Deborah.
Starting her professional career as an Organization Consultant in 1975, over the next 30 years, Deborah went on to serve as a Senior Partner in 4 of the world's largest and most prestigious global professional services firms.
Despite her positions and fancy titles, people at all levels were drawn to her. While the toys on her desk and the rubber chicken hanging from her ceiling may have engaged everyone’s curiosity, it was her combination of piercing intellect, good humor and playfulness that put people at ease.
While Deborah had some wonderful times in that 30 year career, 3 decades of being on the hamster wheel, with little regard for her personal health and welfare, took their toll. She retired in 2005, a poster child for professional burnout, exhausted, morbidly obese and clinically depressed.
In 2009, Deborah hit bottom. She lost 3 loved ones in 5 weeks and her husband was assigned to a 3-year post in Washington, DC. Living alone for the first time in her life, over the next 3 years, Deborah discovered that when she fell in love with herself, everything else finally fell into place, personally and professionally. She transformed her existence and found her purpose as a Life Coach and Reiki Master guiding others on their Journeys to Wholeness.
