About BJ Dawkins: I am a woman of many titles—mother, grandmother, and now, community advocate—have turned my personal tragedies into avenues of support for others. In 2006, my son fell victim to a crime, leaving him with severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), requiring round-the-clock care. Rather than succumbing to despair, I founded "Collin’s Angel Consulting Services," a beacon of hope for caregivers navigating similar journeys. Offering guidance and assistance at low cost, Collin’ s Angel ensures that no one faces these challenges alone. The pain deepened in 2021 with the loss of my daughter to alcoholism and prescription drugs. Fueling my grief into action I opened the doors of "HHELP," a nonprofit dedicated to aiding individuals and families battling addiction. Drawing from my own family's struggles, HHELP stands as a testament to my unwavering commitment to support those in need. In the face of adversity, I am determined to emerge as an example of resilience and compassion, lighting the path for others to find solace and strength in their darkest hours. There will be dark hours, but you can see the light when you keep doing what needs to be done. After the show, "Do Your Self-Work!" 1. Take notes. 2. Take Action. 3. Assess, Readjust, and JUST KEEP PUSHING, because no one will do it for you. Connect and Book C.
