036: Kelly Kix it with Dawn Bryant | A Life of Meaning
Kelly Kix it this week with Dawn Bryant, who dives into her life's biggest goal of making a mark; not by having a light shown upon herself, but by seeing other people find the light within themselves and shining bright. This goal is achieved through the variety of ways Dawn inspires others and touches the lives of people she meets every day. There is also a ribbon that weaves through her life that continues to remind her of the importance of living big. Tracie McBride was Dawn's teenage BFF and was abducted from her military post while Dawn was on the phone with her in 1995. The last thing she heard her friend say was, "I can't right now, I'm on a long distance phone call..." the line went dead. The next day, Dawn learned from Tracie's mom that Tracie was missing. The FBI and other law enforcement agencies visited Dawn and flew her to the Army base. Days later, they found Tracie's body. Dawn walks us through her experience, shares stories of Tracie, navigates some of the grief and guilt. Expresses the importance of focusing not on the what if's, but on the what now... live out her life filled with light, stepping forward and keep momentum shining light into others lives from the inside (see that full circle into Dawn's biggest life goal). The gals also chat about other great topics including: The "Magical Red Door" aka Bodies by Burgoon that started Dawn down the path of her wellness transformation. Wellness is more than physical fitness, it is also mental fitness. Dawn was featured in People magazine in 2013 for her physical transformation of losing over 100 lbs, but more powerful was the mental transformation from within. The world looks at physicality, but often overlooks that mental health manifests itself in the shape of our body (emotional eating or not eating, etc.). We need to address wellness as a way of life. Delicious Cooking! "Sweat Minnesota" / "Sweat United" - Collaboration is more powerful than competition. We are stronger together. Callie, the adorable Jack Russell Terrier (is it even a podcast if we don't talk about fur-babies).
