A Memoir of Faith, Motherhood & the Music Industry

Definitely not part of her plan.
Just one year after unexpectedly losing her mother, Dawn Delvo found herself navigating grief, chasing a career in the Nashville music industry… and facing an unplanned pregnancy.
Four years into building her dream, everything she had worked for suddenly felt at risk of disappearing.
What if she had to walk away?
What if she had to go back to North Dakota… and start over?
Then, two weeks before her due date, she was fired.
No job. A baby days away. No safety net.
And still—on the last day of her pregnancy—she showed up for an interview.
That decision didn’t just change her career.
It changed everything.
In My Greatest Solo, Dawn shares what it really looks like to walk through grief, fear, and uncertainty all at once—while becoming a mother and building a life she never saw coming.
This is a story about:
Because in the same breath that it felt like everything was being taken away, God was building something greater than she could have imagined.
Honest, grounded, and unexpectedly hopeful, My Greatest Solo is for the woman who:
She thought everything was falling apart.
It wasn’t.
All she had to do was say yes.

With nearly 20 years in the music industry and a leadership role at Black River Entertainment, Dawn Delvo built a career rooted in strategy, storytelling, and impact.
But her most defining story didn’t come from success.
It was forged in a season of loss and uncertainty.
Early in her career in Nashville, Dawn experienced the unexpected loss of her mother. That same year, she found herself navigating both grief and an unplanned pregnancy.
Then, two weeks before giving birth, she lost the job she had held for nearly four years, with no clear path forward.
What followed wasn’t the life she had planned.
It was one she had to trust God to build.
A season that demanded everything she had became the foundation for a life marked by faith, resilience, and purpose.
Today, Dawn is a Vice President, author of My Greatest Solo, and sought-after speaker who equips women to trust their story, make hard decisions, and move forward with clarity, courage, and faith.
On stage, she doesn’t just share a story.
She gives audiences language for their own.
Dawn lives in Nashville, Tennessee with her daughter, Evelyn, and continues to build work that connects story to purpose, and purpose to impact.
