Joshua Dixon

Joshua Dixon is a certified mental health life coach, fashion designer, and motivational speaker based in Chicago. He is the founder of Admire Wear, a purpose-driven clothing brand, and Rise and Admire, a personal growth community designed to help people reconnect with their inner strength and worth. Through a powerful blend of fashion, storytelling, and life coaching, Joshua empowers individuals to heal, grow, and rise.

At the heart of Joshua’s mission is his personal story of survival and resilience. After surviving a traumatic pit bull attack that took 80% of his face and led to 62 surgeries over 17 years, he emerged not just with scars but with a message. His journey through pain, rejection, and recovery became the foundation of a purpose-centered life devoted to mental health, self-acceptance, and personal transformation.
