Meet Dawn
Like you, I have experienced many life changes. Some of these transitions were exciting, while others were painful. They all had one thing in common. Each challenge offered an opportunity for personal growth. Every life transition I experienced improved my ability to adjust to new ones in the future.
One thing I realized is that I have a strong passion for helping others navigate through their transitions. It resonates deep within me, stirring my soul. I have had both formal and practical training that brings a unique blend to my coaching service.
Highlights of Dawn’s Formal education credentials include:
Master of Arts in Human Services: Executive Leadership
- Liberty University
Bachelor of Science in Psychology: Family Studies with a minor in program planning
- Corban University
Board-Certified Coach (BCC)
- The Center for Credentialing and Education (CCE)
Associate Certified Coach (ACC)
- International Coaching Federation (ICF)
Highlights of Dawn’s life experience credentials include:
For much of my adult life, change was not an occasional event. It was the environment in which I lived. Infertility altered the future I expected. Foster parenting, working in youth residential treatment facilities, adoption, and raising a child with significant needs shaped my identity around caregiving, responsibility, and responding to what others needed. Career changes, relocations, chronic stress, and spiritual transformation required me to repeatedly reconsider what I believed, who I was, and how I wanted to live.
Eventually, I understood that surviving change and intentionally building life after change are not the same thing. When a demanding season ends or shifts, we do not simply return to who we were before it began. We must discover who we have become and decide what fits the person we are now.
Today, I combine that lived experience with my formal education to help others emerging from prolonged seasons of caregiving, crisis, or responsibility reconnect with themselves and create a clear, practical direction for what comes next.
