I Will Walk Beside You, Not in Front of You
I am Dawnmarie McEvoy — a certified life coach, a survivor, and a single mother of three. My own journey through crisis taught me that no one should have to rebuild alone.
With over 20 years of coaching experience and 40+ years in accounting, I bring both emotional support and practical expertise to help you move forward — whether you are recovering from abuse, grief, financial hardship, or simply feeling lost.
I never go backward. We always focus forward.
