Conversations With a Wounded Healer

083 - Dawn Nickel - Celebration is a Stage of Change

Who’s a wounded healer? It’s any one of us who works in a caring profession and is bravely doing their own work, while helping others. My goal is to share the parallel journey we as healers walk along with our clients and how we attend to our own humanity while caring for others.

My podcast is about conversations and community building, what we can learn from each other, and how we can help heal each other. We’re cultivating a space where we celebrate vulnerability, authenticity and “showing up.”

It’s a place to meet people I think will inspire you, help you heal and grow – and who you can relate to at the same time.

I’m inspired by C.G. Jung’s “wounded healer” concept, where the healer’s own hurt that gives the measure of his own power to heal.

Another one of my heroes, Brené Brown, puts it best: “Mindfully practicing authenticity during our most soul-searching struggles is how we invite grace, joy and gratitude into our lives.”

Together, I hope this marriage of vulnerability and professionalism will inspire and entertain you...enjoy!

Dr. Dawn Nickel is the visionary behind the SHE RECOVERS movement and a thought leader in the women’s recovery community. Her personal recovery journey began in 1987 when she entered treatment for a substance use disorder, trauma from spousal abuse, and anxiety. Today, Dawn also identifies as being in recovery from cancer, codependency, grief, and workaholism.

Dawn and Sarah share their mutual affinity for women supporting women, a non-binary analysis of the 12-steps, and the joy of recovery.
