Meghann Dawson

Meghann Dawson is a force of resilience, humor, and empowerment. A survivor of complex trauma—including medical trauma, family violence, and an unexpected DNA discovery (found out at 39 that the dad who raised her was not her biological father)—she has spent her life turning pain into power. With a degree in Psychology from Penn State and two decades of experience in instructional design and leadership development, Meghann has guided individuals and teams across the country in unlocking their full potential.

Now, as a certified life coach and the host of Becoming is Messy, a raw and relatable podcast, Meghann helps chronic trauma survivors reclaim their voices, embrace their mess, and rewrite their narratives. She blends deep psychological insights, lived experience, and a no-BS approach to healing, proving that transformation isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress.

Whether she’s coaching, speaking, or sharing her own story, Meghann’s mission is clear: to help others break free from their past and step boldly into a life of power, purpose, and joy. Her work is infused with authenticity, hard-earned wisdom, and just the right amount of humor—because healing doesn’t have to be heavy all the time.

Meghann is available to share stories from her own journey, on topics including trauma recovery, resilience, personal empowerment, leadership, and the messy beauty of becoming.
