His mission is to help individuals lead more authentic and meaningful lives centered on purpose and service to others. He has completed expeditions on every continent, reaching the Seven Summits' highest peaks, skiing to the South Pole, traversing the Mojave Desert, and rowing across the Atlantic Ocean.

Known for his concept of strength in surrender, Dawson's philosophies are geared towards helping people face their fears and fulfill their potential.
