In this heartfelt episode of Healing in Progress, I’m joined by my good friend, sister-in-healing, and spiritual powerhouse Dawn Douglas—also known as Divinity Goddess. Dawn is a retired Air Force veteran, Reiki Master, herbalist, life insurance educator, and one of the realest people I know.

We talk about what it means to really give yourself permission to pivot—whether that’s changing careers, starting therapy, going back to school in your 40s, or simply choosing peace over pressure. Dawn shares how her journey from military service to spiritual entrepreneurship wasn’t linear, but full of lessons, healing, and divine timing.

Together we unpack:

• What healing actually looks like (hint: it’s messy, honest, and never instant)
• The importance of therapy—especially with someone who sees you
• How herbalism and Reiki opened doors to deep, holistic healing
• Why life insurance is a form of generational love and protection
• Letting go of who you were so you can become who you're meant to be

If you’ve ever felt like it’s “too late” to start over, this episode is your reminder that your healing doesn’t have an expiration date—and your pivot might just be your purpose calling.

Take what resonates, leave the rest, and remember:

Healing starts when you stop pretending you don’t need it.
