Think you know everything about Breathwork? Think again! This week on Dawnversations, I sit down with Chuck McGee, a Type 1 Diabetic and Traumatic Brain Injury survivor who discovered a surprising key to healing and resilience: breathwork. After experiencing a massive shift in his own health, Chuck left his former career to dedicate his life to teaching others how to unlock the power of their breath.

From studying directly with Wim Hof (yes, that Wim Hof) and helping lead winter expeditions in Poland, to applying breathwork in healthcare settings to ease chronic pain, anxiety, and depression — Chuck has seen firsthand how the way we breathe can transform the way we live.

In this conversation, we myth-bust what breathwork actually is (hint: it’s not just deep breathing), explore its role in mental and physical health, and talk about why there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to wellness.

✨ If you’ve ever wondered how something as simple and natural as your breath could be the missing piece in your health puzzle, this episode is a must-listen. Find Chuck here: https://www.instagram.com/icedvikingbreathworks
