Speaking
keynotes and presentations
Having unwrapped so many of the gifts that long-term recovery brings, Dawn Nickel believes that she has a sacred obligation to pay something forward. It also seems like an urgently right time to do this.
A growing women’s mental health crisis means that the need to better identify and support all women in or seeking recovery has never been clearer. Dawn is on a mission to reimagine / redefine recovery to include all types of recovery and to articulate the importance of women being empowered to find and follow individualized pathways and patchworks of recovery.
women can and do recover– and they don’t need to do it alone
All of Dawn’s work – whether through the Foundation that she established, her professional consulting work, or her writing and speaking efforts – is intended to spread the word that women can and do recover – and they don’t need to do it alone.
