Kyle Dean is a Catholic Life Coach, Theologian, and Deliverance Minister whose work earned his region the Pulitzer Prize for Broadcast Journalism by exposing systemic clerical abuse. A survivor of this abuse, his efforts led to global coverage and Church reforms, including the Vatican's issuance of Vox Estis Lux Mundi. If you seek the compassionate witness of a consecrated guide committed to spreading the keys to virtue, integrity, and holiness, Kyle Dean is ready to help transform your community. He hosts the weekly podcast The Rich Dawn.
Kyle Dean's mission is simple: harness the transformative power of testimony to make saints & defeat the devil. (c.f. Rev 12:11)
He began his career forming souls in 2002, serving the youth as a YMCA Counselor. In 2007, he had a near-death experience wherein God struck him with the wound of charity, yet due to Kyle Dean's vast ignorance and weakness, it wasn't until after 2014's contextualizing visitation by the Blessed Virgin Mary that he recognized that the fullness of Truth resides in the Catholic Church. With crystal clear instructions, Our Lady told Kyle Dean: "Be My Advocate."
Newly armed with daily Rosaries and a divine mandate, Kyle Dean entered the world of Catholic ministry. Within a few short years, he was tasked by his Bishop to form the diocesan ministry Dynamis WNY giving talks to area parishes, helped build and educate a classical catholic high school, launched iCatholicMusic for his local EWTN affiliate, introduced Gregorian Chant to his liturgical community, and was tasked by exorcists to assist them in liberating energumen. He has hosted retreats, speaking alongside fellow community leaders including local NFL players.
After becoming the catalyst behind exposing his region's involvement in the 2018 "Summer of Shame," it became abundantly evident that Holy Mother Church desperately needs faithful souls who know how to confront the clerical shortage and integrity crisis of our times warned about by Our Lady of Good Success. Thus, Kyle Dean left behind a comfortable career in the secular Fortune 100 space to embrace the discomfort of catholic entrepreneurialism and founded The Rich Dawn life coaching practice. He has coached hundreds of souls on integrating the catholic virtues, temperaments, and nine levels of prayer, helping them clear blockages to find and fulfill their vocations as priests/deacons/married/religious.
He graduated from the Rochester Institute of Technology and has over 210 academic credits in Philosophy, Theology, and Psychology. He is a loving husband of one and father of four.

How to Master Mental Prayer: The Doorway to the Upper Seven Levels

The 7 Keys to Spiritual Transformation: A Practical Guide to the Heavenly Virtues
- Spiritual growth requires constant transformation from death-bringing vice (bad habits) to life-giving virtue (good habits). Sacred Scripture provides the 7 Keys to this journey: the Book of Wisdom introduces the four cardinal virtues of Prudence, Justice, Fortitude, and Temperance, whereas St. Paul provides his famous exhortation about the theological virtues of Faith, Hope, and Charity in 1 Corinthians. This talk explains what these virtues are, how they relate to the spiritual life, and how to grow from vice to virtue.
Temet Nosce: How to Combine Thomistic Anthropology and Your Unique Temperament to Know Thyself
- Pope Leo XIII in his encyclical Aeterni Patris teaches that the Thomistic understanding of human anthropology is the Catholic understanding, and that all societal ills stem from failing to understand this. Thomistic anthropology provides the philosophical and theological foundation for understanding the human person, and the Catholic temperaments provide a practical, psychological framework for understanding individual personality traits. Learn how to cooperate with God through your natural dispositions to draw nearer to holiness.

- After Kyle Dean's near death experience, he spent almost 10 years devouring insights from every world religion and philosophy seeking to understand what it meant.
