Debra M. Lewis

Colonel Deb Lewis is a West Point graduate from its first class with women. A retired Army Colonel and Harvard MBA, Deb commanded three US Army Corps of Engineer Districts, including a $2.1B reconstruction program in combat. She survived the 9/11 Pentagon attack while serving on the Joint Staff antiterrorism team. Colonel Deb’s experiences leading while under fire inspired her unique 'Mentally Tough Women' (MTW) program to help women handle more stress - not de-stress - and put it to work for them. MTW arms women (and enlightened men!) with the proven strategies, insights, and tools they need in good times and times of crisis. Deb's experience is grounded with a clear understanding of extreme adversity and frequent setbacks. Her mental toughness skills shaped her positive outlook on life and leadership. She reminds us that, “Today’s challenges are tough enough. Leadership boils down to bringing out the best in everyone." Deb teaches you how to move past life's daily challenges by using stress to your advantage. The skills you gain are like muscle-building. The more you practice - the more your confidence grows. It becomes easier to quickly transform stressful moments, and recover from challenges and setbacks with stronger relationships. "The better you get at handling stress, the easier it becomes to do insanely hard things and really love doing it." Her latest book titled, "Why is Pono not Pono Today?" reveals the secret to handling stress within the story using fun cartoons. Set in Hawaii, this heartwarming book and lovable characters offer adults and children helpful ways to understand, discuss, and better handle stress. She's grateful to be a daughter, sister, wife, mother, pioneer, retired Colonel, Combat Veteran, Infinite-Win Engineer, Author, Speaker, Community Leader, Mental Toughness Expert and so much more...
