Rising Above: Victim to Victor ft. Kathryn Phillips

You and you ALONE are in control of your life…so will you be a victim or a victor? 

In this week’s episode of the Rise with Diana Podcast, I get the opportunity to introduce y’all to one of the most inspiring VICTORS we've had on the podcast yet; Kathryn Phillips. 

Kathryn’s story is inspiring not because she created a path around her trauma, but because she grabbed her shovel, her gloves, dug her way THROUGH it, and said this ain't how my story ends. 

Kathryn shares her powerful story of how she had to overcome, evolve and create a new path for herself. She speaks openly about self-medicating with alcohol to cope with the pain of her trauma, and the turning point that led her to break free from limiting beliefs. 

SIS, Kathryn chose to be a victor…she chose not to settle for anything less than she knew was possible. A life she could look forward to waking up to every day. 

You can make that choice too.

She reminds us that at some point, our trauma drive will break down, and we must decide: Do we want to survive, or do we want to thrive?

Kathryn is a walking testament of what it is to be a Rise advocate. She’ll be the first to tell you! 

You won’t want to miss this conversation. So Tune in!

You can listen on Spotify, Apple, and or WATCH on YouTube.
