About Our Founder

About Me

Welcome to Awakening the Dawn.

My name is Dawn (Shelly) Hunt, and this is a space where I share my journey of awakening, healing, and discovering deeper meaning in life. Through my work as a Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique® (QHHT®) practitioner and life mentor, my intention is to help others explore their own path toward deeper self-understanding, healing, and inner transformation.

I provide QHHT® sessions throughout Treasure Valley Idaho (Boise area) and am honored to travel outside the region, out of state, or even internationally to meet you where you feel most supported.

A turning point in my life came during my own QHHT® session, where I experienced past lives, received profound Higher Self guidance, and came to understand that part of my purpose is to help others through this extraordinary work. Just four days later, I followed that calling and began my journey toward becoming a practitioner.  If you are curious about QHHT® you are invited to watch my session videos on my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@AwakeningtheDawn .

This space is for those who may be searching, healing, questioning, or simply feeling called to something deeper.

If my story was meant to find you, I hope it offers comfort, clarity, and inspiration along your own journey.

Journey towards my purpose

For 37 years, I worked in the corporate world of financial investigations, a career rooted in precision, structure, and resilience. But in 2018, everything shifted. A deep remembrance stirred within me, and a single question rose to the surface: “Why am I here, and what is my purpose?” That moment became my own awakening — my dawn. My path has not been without pain. I carried trauma, walked through heartbreak, and made the difficult decision to step away from what no longer served me. Yet every challenge became a sacred stepping stone, teaching me that life has always been happening for me, not to me. In choosing to love myself fully, I discovered the strength to transform, and now I live in gratitude, wisdom, and light. I am blessed to be a mother and grandmother, and my greatest joy is sharing love and experiences with my family. These bonds, along with my healing journey, have shaped who I am today. I share my story — including the most painful chapters — as a living reminder that healing is possible, self-love is powerful, and awakening can come at any age. Through Awakening the Dawn, I walk beside others as they navigate their own healing and self-discovery. Together, we embrace the beauty within our struggles, awaken to the truth of our souls, and rise into the radiant dawn of a new beginning.
