Dawn Nickel's Journey: From Addiction to Empowerment on The Unruffled Podcast

We're all recovering from something...and that's what I think is so interesting.
Ever wondered how creativity can be a lifeline in recovery? In this episode of 'The Unruffled Podcast', hosts Sondra Primeaux and Tammi Salas sit down with Dawn Nickel, the powerhouse behind the SHE RECOVERS movement. Dawn's story is one of resilience and transformation, having been in recovery from substance abuse since 1987. But her journey doesn't stop there; she also battles workaholism, cancer, and codependency. If you find yourself constantly busy, this conversation is a must-listen.
Dawn opens up about her struggles and shares three essential tools from her 'Unruffled Toolbox': continuous self-reflection (without self-criticism), the simple joy of lattes, and the importance of making time for people. This episode isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about filling that void with meaningful, creative pursuits. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, you'll find plenty of inspiration and practical advice here.
Tune in to hear how creativity can transform your life and help you thrive.
