Dawn Hassmann | Finding my Voice

EP. 003 The Chronically Courageous Podcast Title: Dawn Hassmann | Finding my Voice Dawn Hassmann has had chronic health issues since the age of three. She was initially misdiagnosed, but, through self-advocacy, she found answers. Being diagnosed with multiple autoimmune conditions, she is dedicated to advocating for both herself and others as a leader of the Lupus LA support group. In this episode, we hear about how early childhood trauma caused Dawn to feel as though she didn’t have a voice. She explains how pursuing an education in EFT Tapping, and later becoming a certified EFT practitioner, helped her manage her health and find her voice. You won’t want to miss Dawn’s inspiring story!
