Dawson Church | Rewiring the Brain for Joy

What if the trauma we carry isn’t just something to manage—but something that can become a springboard for profound growth?

In this deeply inspiring conversation, I sit down with my dear friend and brilliant colleague Dr. Dawson Church, a pioneering researcher in the fields of epigenetics and energy psychology. Dawson opens up about his personal healing journey—from a childhood shaped by quiet anxiety to discovering the powerful science of emotional regulation and embodied transformation.

Together, we explore how emotional healing is not just possible, but natural—and often more accessible than we think. We look at what actually happens in the brain and body when we meditate, when we choose compassion, and when we allow ourselves to grow from adversity instead of shutting down. Whether you’ve struggled with trauma, anxiety, or simply want to feel more alive and connected, this conversation will give you the tools and insight to start rewiring your inner world.

We Also Discuss:
● How most people are wired for post-traumatic growth—it’s not rare, it’s human
● How emotional regulation can be trained like a muscle through daily practice
● EFT and other energy therapies and how it creates measurable reductions in trauma symptoms
● Why meditation should bring you into your body, not out of it
● Choosing compassion and altruism and how it literally changes your brain and biochemistry
