When I met Deborah Driggs in a Facebook group for podcast hosts and guests, I admit that I set up an interview with her because after doing a little research on her background and experience I learned that as a young woman she had appeared as a Playboy centerfold.


Well, you’re not going to hear anything about that part of her life. Because during our conversation I discovered someone in whose life experience has made her a real expert in the art of communicating in difficult situations. So much so that I decided to split our conversation into a two-part episode.




In this part, we focus on Deborah’s experience as a both a child and parent of divorce and the lessons she learned about the vital role that communication plays in helping everyone involved – the parents themselves, their children, and even family and friends – grieve the loss of a relationship that was once at the center of their lives. I hope you enjoy our conversation and that you'll tune in to Part 2 in two weeks, when we talk about her career and how she has re-invented herself over and over again on her way to success in the insurance field.


As always, thank you to Jim Cirillo at jimiumgroup.com for our original music and to Rachel Greenberger for our original podcast art.
