    From Rock Bottom to Realignment: Rebuilding Life, Business & Belief with Kathy Dixon

    This conversation is special. Kathy Dixon isn’t just a powerhouse entrepreneur—she’s also a close friend and someone I’ve had the honor of walking alongside in one of the hardest seasons of her life. In this episode, Kathy opens up about hitting financial rock bottom, navigating the weight of $90K in debt, and the long, quiet road of rebuilding—one faithful step at a time. We talk about what it really looks like to stay the course when it would be easier to quit, and how that journey shaped both her marriage and her purpose. We also get into what it’s like to run a business that actually feels like you, the shame we carry around money, and how clarity in your story and message can change everything—not just for your brand, but for your own heart. If you’ve ever felt behind, burned out, or like the life you’re building is costing you more than it’s giving back… I hope this episode feels like a breath of fresh air.
