Our Employee of the Month, Dawn Marie Gallagher was featured on The Zac Clark Show this week. We are so inspired by Dawn's bravery and transparency in telling her story in such a public way. We are proud to have her on our team. Go listen.
This week on The Zac Clark Show, I spoke with Dawn Marie Gallagher, a dedicated Recovery Associate at Release Recovery. Before Release, Dawn was the former CEO of "The Townhouse on Sixth", a sober house for men (and eventually women) that was one of the first of its kind in New York City. Dawn is now a certified recovery coach and sober companion who transitioned from an 18-year career in international hotel management to focus on her own sobriety. Prior to getting sober, Dawn was an Irish Sicilian Catholic girl born in Brooklyn, who started bartending on Atlantic Avenue at age 19. By the time she was 20, she knew she was an alcoholic. In this episode, Dawn shares her personal story of recovery, including her stories of crazy all-nighters and her once fast-paced lifestyle while in active addiction. Her incredible journey led her to a fulfilling career in the behavioral healthcare field. Now she helps clients navigate early recovery, offering guidance and support with a heart full of love and compassion.
