Dawn McCord is an author and Family/Parent Recovery Life Coach, and the mother of two sons, Carson and Jackson. After navigating the challenges of her son Carson’s teen years and the limits of trying to “fix” things on her own, Dawn shifted her career to support parents facing similar struggles. Her family’s journey inspired her book Chasing Carson and her commitment to helping parents feel less alone. Dawn is currently working on a documentary that explores the realities of wilderness therapy—an experience she credits with saving her son’s life.
