Her Brave Story

Empowering Women though Storytelling

Hi, I’m Chrystal Dawn, a mama, surfer, adventurer, and certified Women’s Empowerment Coach with a passion for helping women create lives they love.

I’ve navigated major life transitions, including divorce, single parenting, moving internationally, and starting a new career. These experiences taught me how to embrace discomfort with courage, create healthy boundaries, and align with the vision of a life filled with freedom, joy, and possibility.

As a storyteller with a Bachelor’s degree in Creative Media, I bring creativity and heart to everything I do. My certifications in Women’s Empowerment Coaching, NLP, Health and Wellness Coaching, Yoga, and Breathwork reflect my holistic approach to helping women thrive in every aspect of their lives.

But beyond the credentials, I’m someone who deeply believes in the power of women to rise, reclaim their brilliance, and build fulfilling lives. I know what it’s like to feel stuck or unsure—and I also know the joy and freedom that comes from stepping into clarity, courage, and purpose.

I’m here to guide you on your journey and help you create your own Brave New Story together, with confidence and hearts wide open. 🩵

Empowering Women, Giving Back

At Her Brave Story, we believe in women rising together. A portion of our profits proudly supports WORTH (The Women’s Outreach Trauma Health service) (worth.org.au), an incredible grassroots initiative providing trauma-informed care for women and children in the Northern Rivers community.

I believe in the power of grassroots movements—acting locally while thinking globally. Change starts in our communities, and together we can create a ripple effect that impacts the world. When you join Her Brave Story, you’re not only transforming your own life but also uplifting others and contributing to a global movement of women supporting women.

Let’s rise together and rewrite stories, one brave step at a time.

My Approach

My approach is holistic and playful, blending wellness, creativity, and women-centered coaching to help women reconnect with their power and joy. I’m certified by Wellcoaches Australia and trained in the Foundations of Woman-Centered Coaching, as well as the Women’s Empowerment Method by Dr. Claire Zammit. I also hold certifications in NLP, yoga, breathwork, and Plant-Based Nutrition.

With a Bachelor’s degree in Creative Media and professional experience as a filmmaker and storyteller, I understand the power of narratives in shaping our lives. I’ve partnered with global brands like Toyota, Land Rover, and Wanderlust AUS/NZ, but my passion lies in helping women rewrite the stories that no longer serve them.

As a surfer and adventurer, I know that play is a vital part of transformation. Through my work, I guide women to embrace freedom, fun, and alignment while creating the lives they truly deserve.
