Who's Caleb Dodson?

Caleb Dodson

Taken by Amanda Snyder Photography

I realized early on that I love and come alive more fully when I connect with others about the real things of life and what it means to live and experience it. About three-quarters of the way through my technical counseling studies, I realized that my studies didn’t get at what I believe to be the core of life: beauty, struggle, pain, loneliness, and emotional experiences. I put my technical studies aside and began another degree where I explored the human condition and what it means, for me, most of all, to be alive and living meaningfully. Being a lifelong competitive athlete, I have tended to always push against that growing edge.

I consider myself one who is still journeying toward making sense of life and all its complexities. I’ve found life, at times, to be immensely painful, but even within this is a timeless truth that the beauty we seek is born from the dross or bog of life. The life we seek is found within and through our experiences. I have given everything to this work and gained far more. All this to say that I genuinely believe in the power of conversation and relationship, and I’ve given my life to it and, in doing so have found myself.
