Breakdown to Breakthrough — The LIVE Launch of Her Brave Story Podcast

From riding shotgun in her VW convertible bug on the Big Island of Hawai‘i to sharing the raw truth of starting over — Chrystal Dawn opens the Her Brave Story Podcast with a powerful LIVE conversation alongside one of her dearest friends, clairvoyant healer, and mother of five, Brittany Farmer.

This is a story of sisterhood, breakdowns, belly laughs, and brave new beginnings.
From a 25-minute tech meltdown to tender reflections on divorce, identity, healing, and everything in between—nothing was edited or polished.

2 ½ years ago, while visiting the Big Island, Chrystal sat down with Brittany and recorded a conversation on a simple recording app on her phone — not knowing yet exactly how or when, but feeling the first spark of a bigger dream: to create a podcast that celebrated women, honored their brave stories, and helped normalize the struggles we all face beneath the surface. The recording was never published — but the seed was planted.

Fast forward to March 2025 — after months of working behind the scenes recording new episodes, Chrystal was finally ready to launch Her Brave Story Podcast.
With Women's History Month and a powerful Solar Eclipse aligning, she reached out to Brittany just two days before the planned launch and asked if she would join her live to help kick it off. Brittany said YES.

What followed was a whirlwind:
48 hours of non-stop work getting the first official episode launched... followed by 45 minutes of tech chaos just before going live... and a sick kiddo home too.
They went live 25 minutes later than planned — but they made it happen.
It wasn’t polished. It wasn’t perfect. It was brave. It was real.

In this raw, heartfelt launch episode, Chrystal shares what it was like to rebuild her life from the ground up as a new mother navigating single parenting and self-doubt.

Brittany opens up about her own massive life transitions, including her 24-year marriage, her breakdown-to-breakthrough journey into spiritual awakening, and the unexpected path that led her from running a preschool to becoming a full-time energetic healer.

Today, Brittany offers workshops, energetic healings, and mindful gatherings through her Ho'omana House of Empowerment on the Big Island.
She even recently brought her healing gifts to the screen with an appearance on Netflix’s Temptation Island — proving that true healing can show up in the most unexpected places.

Together, Chrystal and Brittany talk about what it really means to hold space—for yourself and for others—and why doing it messy might just be the most honest (and brave) way to begin.

This isn’t just a podcast launch.
It’s a real-life moment between two brave women finding their way—and inviting you to trust the beginning of yours brave soul xx
