About Us

Meghan and Dave, co-founders of New Dawn Rising, smiling together and grounded in purpose

Proof that you can stop hustling and still rise—together.

We’re Meghan & Dave Rogacki—former corporate, Type-A, hustle-obsessed overachievers turned alignment-first humans building a life (and a business) that runs on intention, not adrenaline.

We know what it’s like to look “successful” on paper but feel disconnected, exhausted, and secretly wonder, “Is this it?”
Our path back to clarity wasn’t about burning it all down. It was about learning how to slow down, realign, and redefine what success actually means.

At New Dawn Rising, we help high-functioning humans realize they’re not failing, unmotivated, or missing some secret ingredient—they’re just tired. Overbooked. Overcommitted. Maybe held together by caffeine, perfectionism, and a little bit of sarcasm.

We’re creating a life that feels good to live—and helping others do the same. Because we believe alignment isn’t just possible—it’s powerful. And it changes everything.

BELIEF #1

Life is too short to do things that don't bring you joy.

BELIEF #2

We are all perfectly imperfect beings and shouldn't be afraid to show our authentic selves.

BELIEF #3

You are in control of your thoughts, actions, and destiny.

I'm Meghan

Most would describe me as a mother, wife, and small business owner. But in reality, I am so much more than that. And so are you.

Society may put us in boxes, but that doesn't mean we have to stay there. So let's break free from who we think we should be and start living the fulfilling life we deserve.

Join me on a journey of self-discovery, self-love, and unapologetic confidence.

Like many of us, I grew up thinking that I had only one choice in life if I wanted to be truly successful - go to school, get a good job, and build a stable life for myself. And I was what you would call a Type A, high achieving perfectionist, I was definitely going to be successful. While this laser focus led me to earn my MBA and Master's in Communication Management by the age of 22 and a high-paying career in my 20s, and even open my own business before I was 30, it didn't leave me with any sense of who I was and what brought me joy. I had it all - advanced degrees, certifications, a respectable career, my own holistic day spa, a loving husband and beautiful family, but even so, I felt like something was missing, I still trying to get “there”. And of course admitting this to myself meant guilt, how could I not be grateful for everything I had?

After realizing I was too young to feel stuck, I started my search for answers, and shortly after beginning this journey I realized that what I was truly looking for was myself. Somewhere along the way of growing up and navigating life in this world, I lost that connection to my essence, to my authentic self, and it was calling me back home. And I learned that once you step into who you really are, there's no going back. This profound journey of self-discovery and personal awakening sparked a passion in me, to share this path with as many people as possible so that they too can come home to themselves and connect with a deep sense of happiness and purpose - to live their lives aligned to their authentic selves, to realize the immense possibility that life has to offer.

My path has included the study and practice of many subjects in addition to my traditional education, including Reiki & Energy Work, Feng Shui, Yoga & Meditation, the Chakra System, Dance, the Celtic Wheel, Shamanism, Holistic Nutrition, Astrology, Transformative Coaching and others. My diverse knowledge and experience has allowed me to gather wisdom and weave it into truly unique transformative experiences that empower others to overcome their obstacles and live the life they really want.

I believe that at our core we all have a deep sense of knowing, it is my mission to help awaken this knowing within you and open the door to new possibilities. If you're ready to walk away from your own limiting beliefs and build a life you love, I am ready to lead the way.

I'm Dave

I have many roles… a father, runner, a consultant, maybe a high achiever who “has it together." Those roles matter, but they’re not the whole story. Life is about more than just keeping up.

There’s more to achievement than hustle, more than barely hanging on. And it starts when we stop doing what we’re supposed to do…and start listening to what we actually need.

Join me on a journey of breaking cycles, reclaiming energy, and redefining success—on your terms. Not just surviving—but rising.
