Maybe it’s wine. Or weed. Or food. Or scrolling. Or working out.
Whatever it is - it feels like it has more power than you want to admit.
It shows up when you’re stressed, tired, bored, or just seeking relief.
It whispers: “You’ve earned this.
You need this.”
And maybe you have earned a break.
But the truth is: that kind of break doesn’t bring you back to yourself.
It takes you further away.
I know this place, because I’ve lived it.
Hi, I'm Kate and like you I wasn’t spiralling. I wasn’t hitting a dramatic “rock bottom.”
I was holding it together, helping others, working, even teaching yoga for goodness sake, I was living a life that looked good.
But there were habits I couldn’t seem to shake - coping mechanisms that numbed me more than they nourished me. Drinking wine when I had decided I wouldn't, smoking weed even though it hurt my chest. I was being controlled by these things.
The problem wasn’t that I was broken.
It was that I didn’t know how to pause, feel, and choose something different.
Once I began listening to the deeper messages in my body and connecting to
my values, things started to shift.
Not overnight, but from the inside out.
That’s what Rise Above is about.
This course is for you if…
-
You’ve got a habit that’s technically manageable… but still feels like it’s managing you.
-
You know you want to change — but shame, confusion, or fear keep you stuck.
-
You don’t resonate with traditional addiction models, but you do know something needs to shift.
-
You want to understand the root cause, not just slap on another “plan.”
-
You want to feel more alive, more connected, and more in charge of your life.
THE REAL PROBLEMS FUNCTIONAL ADDICTS FACE
and how this course helps you heal from the inside out
You can’t say no even when you
want to.
Learn how to pause, unhook, and come back into your power with practical somatic and ACT-based tools.
You feel disconnected from your body, your joy, your intuition.
Use movement, breath, and deep inquiry to reconnect and come home to your true self.
You can’t talk about it - it feels too shameful or ‘not that bad.’
Feel safe in a community that gets it - where compassion, not judgment, leads the way.
The inner critic won’t shut up.
Practice cognitive defusion to separate from the harsh voice in your head and return to a calm, wise presence.
You’re not here to just quit - you want to understand, heal, and transform.
Go to the root. Meet the part that’s coping. Discover your deeper WHY. Align your life from the inside out.
Join Rise Above today and take your first real step toward lasting change - without shame or pressure.
