9/11: The Day She Decided She Deserved Better with Debbie Viola

EP195: Today’s guest is Debbie Viola and one interesting thing about her story is that she really didn’t have a business plan… just a burning desire to figure out a way to make money with her art or else she’d have to get a “real” job if I wasn’t successful.

Debbie first picked up a paintbrush at age 40, and hasn’t put it down since. Her local art & decorative painting business has won seven awards, and is still going strong. 

 

In this episode, Debbie and I talked about:

• The day her whole perspective shifted
• How art evolved into her life
• The ‘live’ art project she did during the start of the pandemic
• Her story of writing her own book

 

In addition to creating art for corporate and residential clients, Debbie’s greatest joy is teaching others how to find comfort through art. She’s taught thousands locally, and now hosts virtual workshops and a learn to paint club, where women are enjoying video and live lessons from their homes.

Debbie wants to inspire people to follow their dream. As Debbie believes, “Life is short; do what you love and figure out how to make money with it.”
