Keynote Option 2.

From Cure to Healing: Leading with Heart for personal and Organizational Growth

Dana Liesegang is a military veteran who transformed her life through the power of forgiveness. On October 25, 1990, while on active duty in the United States Navy, she suffered a brutal rape and attempted murder at the hands of a fellow sailor that left her paralyzed from the neck down. This is where her new life journey began.

Determined to walk again, she focused on the cure of her quadriplegic spinal cord injury. In 2007, with the aid of a walker and two spotters, she had healed enough to walk a 5k in 8.5 hours. Several years later, in 2012, she discovered that true healing comes from the heart through forgiving herself and her attacker.

Dana realized that true healing required more than just physical recovery. This emotional breakthrough became a turning point, showing her that the real path to wholeness was through healing her heart. This required deep emotional growth, forgiveness, and the creation of space for others to be seen and heard, both personally and within their communities.

In this powerful keynote, Dana shares how individuals can accelerate their personal healing journey, fostering a sense of empathy, resilience, and self-compassion.

Her insights not only help people find inner strength, but also offer a path to building empowered relationships, whether in personal life or within organizations. Through this journey she found various healing modalities, including Egoscue method, stem cell therapy, meditation, breathwork, entanglement theory, neuroscience, resonance theory, and frequency alignment.

In this keynote, Dana explores the transformative power of modern science in personal growth by embracing heart-brain coherence and genuine connection as it creates a more compassionate environment.

Dana’s message inspires personal transformation and the resilience to thrive in the world no matter what has happened to you.
