A Business That Breathes. A Life That Aligns.
Desireé Foster-Collins
Principal Consultant & Founder
I spent over two decades in boardrooms building multimillion-dollar systems and projects. Now, I help women like you something far more powerful — a business that reflects your deepest purpose.
I’m Desiree Foster-Collins — systems strategist, leadership coach, and the heart behind EBD Collective.
My journey has taken me from corporate leadership at one of California’s largest utility companies to coaching entrepreneurs around the country. My favorite clients call me the #CreativeTechWhisperer , and honestly? I love that.
But I’m not just here to talk about resumes. I’m here to talk about reinvention.
After climbing the corporate ladder while raising two children on my own, I realized something: The next season of my life needed to feel different. Not just successful, but sustainable. Not just productive, but purposeful.
I believe entrepreneurs and small business owners are the heartbeat of communities and deserve access to the same systems & tools that big businesses have at their disposal.
That’s why I created my Core Essentials™ Signature Framework — a simple, aligned path for building a business that breathes. A business that honors your values and your vision, so you can thrive in this new economy.
Today, I use all those years of strategic precision, cross-functional leadership, and technical know-how — not to serve shareholders, but to serve people like you.
Women who are ready to stop duct-taping their systems together.
Women who want to build with clarity.
Women who want calm. Confidence. And yes — real growth.
So if you’re standing at the edge of your second act wondering how to bring it all together… I want you to know: You’re not too late. You’re right on time.
Let’s build something extraordinary — together.

What They Say
What our amazing clients say about working with us
"Dezi is a servant leader. She was very thorough in explaining both the how to's of keeping our technology safe from hackers, but also clearly explained the why. She was very patient with the group and took time to respond to all questions. The demos she provided were very helpful."

"I recommend Coach Dezi to anyone who may need that push to get things done! Getting started is the easy part of starting your own business, moving up in a corporate position through promotion, etc. What is difficult is keeping momentum and motivation to keep going forward and upward when faced with obstacles and challenges.
Everyone needs a coach!"

The Present Entrepreneur: Building a Business That Serves Your Life (Part 2)
Remember that fog we talked about in Part 1? Now that you've found your clarity, let's talk about something equally important – creating a business that doesn't just make money, but actually fits into your life. (And yes, it's totally possible!)
The Myth of the "Always On" Entrepreneur
Let me share something personal: I used to think being a "successful" entrepreneur meant being available 24/7, just like in my corporate days. My phone would ding at midnight with client messages, and I'd jump to respond.
Or... I'd look at the email and try to tell myself that I'd take care of it later, but it now was renting real estate in my head. Sound familiar?
Here's the truth bomb: That's not success – that's a recipe for burnout.
The real magic happens when you design your business around your life, not the other way around. And I'm not just talking about scheduling – I'm talking about creating a business that reflects who you are and how you want to live.
Your Business, Your Rules
One of my clients came to me exhausted from trying to run her consulting business like her old corporate job – rigid 9-to-5 hours, back-to-back Zoom calls, and that constant feeling of being "on." Together, we redesigned her business to match her natural rhythm:
• She's a morning person? Great – client calls happen before 2 PM
• Needs Wednesdays for deep work? Blocked off
• Wants to pick up kids from school? Non-negotiable family time
The result? Her revenue actually increased by 30% because she was working in her zone of genius at her peak times.
Creating Your Business Boundaries
Here's a simple exercise that changed everything for me (and can do the same for you):
List your non-negotiables (family time, exercise, hobbies)
Identify your peak energy hours
Design your business offerings around these parameters
Remember: You're not just a business owner – you're a whole person with a life, interests, and relationships outside of work.
The Permission Slip You've Been Waiting For
Consider this your official permission slip to:
• Create business hours that work for YOU
• Say no to clients and energy vampires who don't respect your boundaries
• Design services that energize rather than drain you
• Take that midday yoga class without guilt
Action Step: Take 30 minutes today to write down what your ideal work week looks like. Not what you think it should look like – what you actually want it to look like. This becomes your blueprint.
The truth is, running a business shouldn't feel like a prison you've built for yourself. It should feel like freedom, possibility, and joy – even on the challenging days.
Ready to design a business that truly serves your life? Join me for Part 3, where we'll dive into practical systems to make this vision your reality.
