Today we’d like to introduce you to Meaghan Dunham
Hi Meaghan, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
For years, I struggled with crippling self-doubt in my professional life. I knew I wanted more from my career (I was a public school teacher at the time), but I had no idea what it looked like or where to start. I thought that, because my degree was in public school education, that’s all I could ever do.
In 2017, I was gifted with my very first astrology reading. For the first time, I was able to see myself and my experiences from an objective perspective. I started exploring my deepest wounds and conditioning and began a long road toward self-acceptance.
Then, in October of 2020, my grandmother passed away. As a child, my grandmother was my best friend and confidante. Her death came quickly and unexpectedly.
The grief I felt after her passing, not only from missing her but for the life she did not (and perhaps could not) live, caught me by surprise and spurred me into action. On December 17, 2020 I quit my job as a corporate marketer and began my coaching business.
One of my favorite quotes of all time is from The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. In the book the main character, a young shepherd, is speaking to a wise alchemist as he begins a long journey of self-discovery. The alchemist says to the boy,
“When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you achieve it.”
For me, passion and purpose go hand-in-hand. I believe that when you figure out what lights you up, it points you in the direction of your wildest dreams! And that’s exactly what I work with my clients to achieve.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
There have been multiple instances throughout my adult life where I had what I’ll call a soul-shattering experience. Despite the negative connotation, each lesson was profound, deeply spiritual, and felt like a call to action.
From living and working in South Africa in graduate school and experiencing capitalistic culture shock upon my return, to becoming deathly ill, having my gallbladder removed, and quitting my public school teaching career due to illness, to a year-long job with a direct-trade coffee company that introduced me to the dark side of consumerism.
Through all of these experiences, I learned so much about my own limits, cultivating deep emotional intelligence skills and an even deeper understanding of who I am and who I want to be.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Meaghan Dunham Creative?
Meaghan Dunham Creative is a coaching and consultancy firm that focuses on supporting women business owners to understand their own unique strengths and vulnerabilities through spiritual modalities like Astrology, Human Design, Ayurveda and Yoga Philosophy. When women come to me, they are usually feeling burnt out, overextended and frustrated. They want to live in their zone of genius but are feeling bogged down by everything else that comes with being an entrepreneur.
Together, we work to create a plan to tackle those not-so-fun tasks in a way that supports their energy, plays to their strengths, and mitigates their vulnerabilities. From my 1-to-1 intuitive business coaching to my membership community, the Intuitive Entrepreneur Collective, I want everyone who steps through my metaphorical door to feel welcome, supported and empowered.
Before we go, is there anything else you can share with us?
I’m a former public school teacher who once grappled with debilitating self-doubt and what I thought was an extremely limited career path. I know what it’s like to feel like you don’t have any options — to feel like you’re stuck doing something that sucks your soul out every single day. That’s why I started my business. And that’s why I’m committed to helping each of my clients create a business (and life!) that serves THEM; not the other way around.
