In this episode of Dawnversations, I sit down with Scott Doniger — former marketing executive turned chronic stress counselor and life-stage coach — to talk all things stress, healing, and personal transformation. After decades in the corporate world, Scott followed his calling to help people move through anxiety, trauma, and physical illness using a holistic blend of Parts Work, EMDR, mindfulness, and somatic therapy.

💬 Plus, we get into his book Hijacked and why shifting your relationship with your body and mind can change everything.

What is Dawnversations: In My Head ?

⭐ Ranked Top 7 in Improv Podcast of the Month on Goodpods, and Top 10 in Funny & Life categories. Apparently talking to myself is working.

Welcome to Dawnversations: In My Head — Part Funny. Part Therapy. The podcast where the real conversations happen inside Dawn’s brain… and yes, it’s a lot. Join me every week as I talk honestly about life, overthinking, identity, style, midlife chaos, and whatever strange spiral I'm riding that day — often interrupted by my inner nag, Carol, who ALWAYS has something to say.
This isn’t self-help. It’s self-talk — relatable, raw, and slightly sarcastic in the best way.
If you’ve ever wondered “Is it just me?” — good news. It isn’t.
Ready or not… here we go. You can watch me on YouTube or listen anywhere you listen to your favorite podcasts!
