#154 Listening to the Quiet Voice Within: A Path to Healing

Today, I interview Sarah Dawkins, who struggled with losing her voice after being constantly told to be quiet as a child. Her curiosity was often met with dismissal, and a negative experience in school left her feeling silenced and small. Later in life, despite her passion for teaching and helping others, the fear of public speaking deepened her internal struggle with self-expression. Sarah grew up in a strict household and found herself rebelling in her late teens as a way to reclaim her suppressed vibrancy. However, emotional wounds from her upbringing and bullying shaped her life choices, leading her to pursue a career in nursing where she could provide the care and support she had longed for. A major turning point came when Sarah began to question conventional approaches to health and healing. This exploration opened the door to self-healing and a new understanding of wellness that transformed her life. Today, Sarah helps clients reconnect with their own inner wisdom and strength. Through her book, podcast, and coaching, she guides people to take simple steps toward healing and discover the quiet voice that leads to transformation. __________________ Sarah Dawkins is a highly sought-after Holistic Health and Healing Coach, Keynote Speaker, and the Author of HEAL YOURSELF.
