Every week, Christine and Salt interview the Badass Woman of the Week, celebrating women who've conquered challenges and emerged stronger. The honoree receives an empowering B Badass bracelet from The Power to B and is showcased on-air Fridays at 7:15 AM with Christine and Salt.

Meet our badass woman of the week: Dawn Alarcon of Terriville. The incredible school secretary at Eli Terry Jr Middle School also coaches volleyball, cheerleading, and teaches dance! Well, she's not just a superstar at school—she's a guardian angel at home too. She adopted her nephew and cared for her sick dad who recently passed away after coming home from hospice.

Last week, when her grandson had a health scare at daycare, she swooped in like a superhero to take care of him. Dawn's like a one-woman support squad, balancing work, family, and being an awesome grandma. Seriously, we need more Dawns in the world – she's a true Badass Woman! Listen to Dawn's interview with Christine and Salt below.
