About Me

I am Deborah “DOPIE” Young, a mother, creator, speaker, author and entrepreneur passionate about helping women grow in confidence, faith and purpose.

I hold a degree in Communications with a concentration in Public Relations, and I am currently pursuing my Bachelors’s degree in Sociology with a minor in Business, equipping me with both the voice and the strategy to build meaninful platforms and impactful work.

My journey began with “Lips with a Cause”, a beauty brand I created to empower women through confidence and self-expression. As I grew, I expanded my vision and launched “Dopie’s World”, which became both an online radio platform and a physical event space where I hosted experiences designed to bring people together, inspire conversation, and build community.

Through “Dopie’s World”, I found my voice and began connecting with women through real, honest conversations that went beyond beauty and into purpose. Balancing motherhood and purpose has been one of my greatest teachers. it has strengthened my resilience, deepened my faith, and reminded me daily of the importance of growth, healing and becoming-not just for myself, but for the next generation watching.

through that journey, I discovered something deeper: women don’t just need beauty-we need healing, growth and purpose. That realization led me to write my book, “After You Destroy, Take Time To Heal and Rebuild: A Journey to Reflect, Accept and Heal”-a powerful reflection on healing, self-awareness, and rebuilding after life’s challenges.

My message continued to evolve into what is now “I Am Becoming”-a movement rooted in faith and transformation, inspired by Philippians 1:6: “He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.” Today, everything I create-through my website, YouTube channel, Podcast and brand-is designed to encourage women to embrace their journey, find their voice and become who God created them to be.

This is more than what I do-it’s who I am. And my mission is simple: To help women heal, grow and become.
