Kathryn Annis is the founder of The Dawning Institute, a wellness initiative dedicated to whole-person reintegration and systemic healing. With over a decade of experience working within healthcare systems, she brings a rare dual perspective — one informed by both professional expertise and deeply personal lived experience.
After navigating years of medical misdiagnosis and systemic oversight, Kathryn saw firsthand how traditional models often fall short for those with complex needs. Her journey marked by perseverance, self-advocacy, and a refusal to be defined by systems that misunderstood her became the foundation for something greater: a trauma-informed model of care that sees the whole human.
Today, she leads with a focus on dignity, inclusivity, and integrative building — a network of providers who honor the complexity of healing across mind, body, and soul. Her mission is to create space for those who have been overlooked or underserved, offering support that is not only holistic but deeply human.
Through The Dawning Institute, Kathryn continues to transform her story into a platform for change, redefining what healing can look like when systems are challenged and the individual is truly seen.
Kathryn’s transformation reflects years of inner work, holistic practice, and the courage to rebuild from within. Her journey is not about appearance — it’s about healing, reclamation, and the profound renewal that happens when mind, body, and soul are finally in harmony.
