Rebel Rising: Redefining Recovery
Stop Surviving. Start Thriving.
What if everything you’ve been told about yourself in recovery—the rules, the labels, the limitations—wasn’t the full story? What if you didn’t have to live by anyone else’s definition of “healing”?
At Rebel Rising, we believe recovery isn’t just about surviving—it’s about creating a life you actually love. Whether you’re recovering from substance use, toxic relationships, love or shopping addiction, or life’s unpredictable curveballs, this is a space for real transformation.
Imagine stepping out of the shadow of your past and realizing you get to rewrite your own story. How would it feel to let go of the “shoulds” and “have tos” that keep you stuck? To set boundaries that actually work, heal old wounds, and finally live a life that feels vibrant, joyful, and entirely yours?
This is not a lecture. This is not a rigid program. Rebel Rising is a community, a movement, and a toolkit for your life.Our workshops, classes, and events are designed to help you:
-
Question the stories you’ve been told about who you are and what recovery means.
-
Step boldly into your power and reclaim your voice.
-
Build practical tools for boundaries, self-care, and confidence.
-
Rise above old patterns and live life on your terms.
No judgment. No gatekeeping. Just a tribe of people who get it, show up, and lift each other higher. Whether you’re just beginning your journey or have been walking the recovery path for years, you are welcome here.
Take a moment and imagine your life if you could:
-
Speak your truth without fear.
-
Move through the world without guilt or shame.
-
Wake up excited for the day because it’s yours to shape.
Rebel Rising isn’t just about recovery—it’s about reclaiming your power, your joy, and your freedom. The life you want is possible, and we’ll help you rise into it.
Are you ready to stop surviving and start thriving?
Your life. Your rules. Your rise.
Join Rebel Rising today and start creating a life you love.

Rebel Rising because I believe life is about so much more than the story that we’re broken.
Recovery isn’t about constantly reminding yourself of what went wrong, living in fear, or thinking you’ll “set your life on fire” if you slip up. That’s not the vision the pioneers of recovery had for us. They said we get to recover—not that we must spend the rest of our lives stuck in shame. And that’s exactly what I want to share with you: you GET to recover.
Recovery, to me, means learning to trust yourself again. It means you get to thrive, not just survive. I got sober in 2019 through 12-Step Recovery, and I credit that program with saving my life and setting me free. But my journey toward empowerment started long before that.
Back in 2003, at age 24, I had a nervous breakdown. That’s when I began studying empowerment and breaking free from “victim consciousness” with my mentor Lynne Forrest. She planted seeds that ultimately made my recovery rock solid—but I couldn’t fully hold onto the healing until I got sober at 38. Once I did, everything I had learned finally clicked, and I’ve never let go since.
Now, it’s my mission to help others claim the same empowerment I found in recovery. You aren’t broken. You don’t have to stay “sick” to stay well. You GET TO RECOVER, and I’ll show you how I learned to rise, thrive, and create a life I actually loved!
