The Path to Unapologetic Healing with Annalie Howling
Manage episode 479768685 series 3592051
Welcome back to The Dana Grant Show, where heart-centered conversations meet powerful transformations. This week, Dana sits down with the extraordinary Annalie Howling—a transformational coach, trauma specialist, and author—who shares her raw and powerful journey through shame, burnout, and into deep self-healing.
After surviving a violent childhood, navigating abusive relationships, and battling silent self-harm while outwardly “succeeding,” Annalie faced the truth: healing doesn't come from hiding. It comes from radical acceptance, surrender, and learning to stand unapologetically in your story.
Today, she coaches elite performers, CEOs, athletes, and Special Forces veterans—and her brand-new book, Unapologetic, is a must-read for anyone ready to reclaim their life from the shadows of shame.
