Hi friends, I’m Debbie.

I’m a relationship coach based in Raleigh, North Carolina. My hunch is that someone you trust recommended me, or you stumbled upon one of my videos, quotes, or articles online. Whatever path you took, I’m really glad you’re here.

Sometimes, we need a little guidance to move in the right direction. My role is to help you discover the wisdom and resources you need to achieve the relationship outcomes you desire.

I work with individuals and professionals who want to strengthen their most important connections, whether that's with romantic partners, family members, colleagues, or the teams they lead. The foundation of all meaningful relationships is what I call Realth - the alignment between your relational and emotional intelligence.

Think of Realth as your relationship credit score. Just like your financial credit score tells lenders whether you're prepared to handle a mortgage, your Realth® score reveals whether you're equipped to build and maintain the deep, authentic connections that create lasting fulfillment in both your personal and professional life.

Realth® is relational and emotional alignment—a measure of how consistently our values, emotions, actions, and connections align across life, love, leadership, and legacy.

Realth® is a pioneering framework, founded by Coach Debbie Johnson, that bridges the gap between relational and emotional alignment across life, love, leadership, and legacy. Standing alongside health and wealth as the third pillar of wellness, Realth emphasizes congruence between who we are, how we feel, and how we relate—with ourselves and others—promoting emotional fitness, relational intelligence, and values-aligned living. Realth is personal; if you do not value a domain, you may leave it quiet rather than perform it for others.

Wisdom for the outcome you want!

Relationships can be challenging, especially when we lack the skills needed to create the outcomes we desire.

Imagine understanding what your partner is truly thinking and feeling. Picture yourself being able to communicate your needs and wants effectively. How much better would life be with the healthy, happy relationship you've always dreamed of?

We are here to help you make that a reality! Discover what it takes to find your ideal partner, build a strong and healthy relationship, and navigate the everyday challenges of being in love. ❤️

Why coach with us?

  • The word 'YOU' is spelled out using metal paper clips on a yellow background.

    Who you are

    Once we begin our coaching journey, we’ll dive right into self-discovery. Our goal is to gain a clear understanding of who you are—your morals, core values, and belief systems. By identifying what truly matters to you, you’ll find it easier to strengthen your relationships, as you’ll be able to communicate with confidence and authenticity.

  • The word 'WAY' written on a glass surface with marker, with a reflection creating a duplicate in the background.

    What you want

    When you look back on your past relationships, did you enter them knowing exactly what you wanted? Together, we’ll help you identify your non-negotiables and refine your relationship checklist, empowering you to make more intentional and satisfying choices moving forward.

    What you have to offer

    It’s not just about you; it’s also important to consider what your partner wants and how you can meet those needs. We’ll work on identifying your strengths and understanding what you’re willing to do for your partner. Together, we’ll create “Mutual Matches” and explore “Alternate Agreements” to build a balanced and fulfilling relationship for both of you.
