Fan Mail A seventeen-year-old learns to march, sing, and lead—then faces a bomb blast in a German bunker that changes everything. Dr. Katherine Dayson opens up about the years that followed: PTSD that lingered, faith that steadied her, and the mentors, chaplains, and family who refused to let go. Her story moves from Tops In Blue stages to computer consoles, from master drill commands to the quiet work of healing, and finally to a calling that now spans cities and countries. We talk about the moments that mark a life: the first lonely night in basic training, the pride of mastering a craft in the Air Force, and the fear that comes with sudden loss. Katherine shares how mental health care, prayer, and community can coexist, and why PTSD is not a weakness but a wound that deserves care. She also tells a vivid quitting-smoking testimony—one drag, a car filled with smoke, and a conviction that ended decades of addiction—which now fuels how she supports others fighting their own habits. Today, Katherine serves as the International Supervisor of Women for Joshua Kingdom International, traveling to Dallas, San Antonio, New Orleans, Saginaw, Tuscaloosa, and beyond. With a Doctor of Divinity and ongoing counseling studies, she mentors women, builds retreats, and brings practical hope to people navigating trauma, depression, and change. If you’re a veteran, caregiver, or anyone seeking a way through hardship, this conversation offers both candor and compassion—and a reminder that purpose can outlast pain.
