Shifting Nations
Dr. Dee Dawkins-Haigler is Mobilizing Women, Shifting Nations, and Making Her Voice Heard Worldwide
By GlobalHer Voice Magazine Editorial Board
She doesn’t just speak—she awakens. She doesn’t just lead—she multiplies leaders. And she doesn’t just represent a community—she stands on the global stage as a fearless advocate for justice, gender equity, and spiritual leadership.
Dr. Dee Dawkins-Haigler, host of the powerful morning show Wake Up With Dee on 1380 WAOK, is more than a media personality—she is an international voice of transformation. From the United Nations to underserved neighborhoods, from political platforms to ministry altars, Dr. Dee is using her voice to move mountains and mobilize change.
A Global Ambassador for Women and Justice
As the President and Chief Ambassador to the United Nations for the Organization of World Leaders (OWL Inc.), Dr. Dee is not just attending meetings—she’s driving meaningful conversations that center the needs of women and girls worldwide. She has led diplomatic delegations, spoken before dignitaries, and developed initiatives that promote sustainable development, entrepreneurship, and equity for marginalized populations.
Her reach is truly global: she has trained women in Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, and Liberia, empowering them to rise in leadership, political participation, and business. Through her consulting firm, DDH & Associates, she’s helped over 1,000 women and minorities secure leadership roles and elected office.
“Empowerment isn’t about spotlight—it’s about strategy,” says Dr. Dee. “We’re building global tables, not just asking for seats.”
The Voice Behind the Mic
Wake Up With Dee, her daily morning show, is where prophetic truth meets political wisdom. Airing on one of the nation’s most respected Black talk stations—1380 WAOK—Dr. Dee uses her platform to amplify local stories, global issues, and faith-based insights that move people into purpose-driven action. From reproductive justice to racial equity, from education to emotional wellness, no topic is off limits.
The show’s reach has expanded beyond Atlanta, streaming across the U.S. and abroad via the Audacy App. And it’s not just conversation—it’s a call to action.
“When women hear my voice, I want them to hear their own power,” she affirms.
Faith Meets Feminine Fire
An ordained minister and theologian, Dr. Dee is unapologetically faith-filled and deeply rooted in advocacy. She blends prayer and policy, wisdom and warfare. Her bestselling books—including Empower Her and A Message to Our Daughters—are not just literary works; they are manifestos for women ready to rise.
She is the founder of TIME 1000, a national initiative focused on developing 1,000 female leaders for impact across sectors. Her documentary Black Girls Die Too: The Backpage Murders lifted the veil on online trafficking and helped shape national dialogue around Black girls lost to human trafficking.
Her legacy is deeply intertwined with her ministry to women. Whether mentoring a mother in Atlanta or training a village chief’s daughter in West Africa, Dr. Dee sees every woman as a world-changer.
