Acclaimed entrepreneur, author, and business strategist Debi Corrie, CPA, CGMA, and CEO/Founder of Acumaxum, LLC, has achieved remarkable recognition as Unsung Heroines of Business reaches #1 International Best-Selling Status. The book soared to international acclaim within just 27 hours of its launch, earning the top spot in six countries - the USA, Canada, Germany, the UK, Brazil, and Australia - and ranking in 90 Best-Selling Categories, including 27 #1 positions.
This phenomenal success not only celebrates Debi’s contribution as one of the featured authors but also underscores the global appetite for authentic, empowering stories of women in business. The recognition comes as Debi begins the Media Citation Process (Platinum Level), marking yet another milestone in her influential career as a leader, mentor, and advocate for women in business.
“Fail often, fail forward and you will succeed beyond your wildest expectations. And for goodness sake, don’t forget to laugh at yourself,” says Debi Corrie, reflecting her signature blend of wisdom and warmth.
An Inspiring Voice for Women in Business
Unsung Heroines of Business brings together real, raw, and deeply personal stories of women who have fought through adversity, embraced resilience, and emerged as leaders in their fields. Each narrative sheds light on the emotional and practical realities of entrepreneurship, from navigating personal hardships to overcoming professional challenges.
Debi’s motivation for contributing to the book came from a simple but profound realization - women often don’t share their stories.
“We are taught that sharing our achievements is boastful,” Debi explains. “But our stories are needed to inspire the next generation of women leaders. They help others see what’s possible when courage and conviction meet.”
Her chapter serves as a beacon for aspiring entrepreneurs and executives, reminding them that courage is not the absence of fear - it’s the strength to move forward in spite of it.
Building Businesses That Thrive
Through her company, Acumaxum, LLC, Debi and her team help scaling businesses align their strategy, finances, and culture to achieve sustainable success. Acumaxum specializes in strategic planning, succession planning, cash flow analysis, and profit optimization, bridging the gap between people and numbers to create workplaces where everyone knows how to “play the game to win.”
Debi founded Acumaxum out of her passion to help business owners unlock their potential. Her journey from self-employed professional to successful employer exemplifies her courage to take bold leaps. “When I started Acumaxum, hiring my first employee terrified me,” she recalls. “It took me four months to take that step - but once I did, my business doubled.”
Empowering the Next Generation
Debi’s commitment extends beyond the boardroom. She is passionate about storytelling, community involvement, and helping women and children’s causes. At her book signing events, she hosts interactive panels to encourage open dialogue about leadership and resilience. She also guides fellow authors on leveraging their stories to grow their businesses and reach broader audiences through media exposure and public speaking.
Her message to readers and aspiring leaders is clear:
- Courage means taking action despite fear.
- Failure is a stepping stone, not a stop sign.
- Decisiveness drives success - indecision kills dreams.
“Thriving is about finding what gives you joy,” says Debi. “If you’re not feeling it, pause and reflect - because joy starts from within.”
Words That Inspire
Among her favorite quotes, Debi often cites the wisdom of Maxine Clark, Founder of Build-A-Bear:
“If you can live your imagination, your life will be a dream come true.”
She also draws strength from Oprah Winfrey’s timeless reminder:
“We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are.”
Both quotes capture the spirit that fuels Debi’s work - transforming vision into action and inspiring others to do the same.
