I’m glad you’re here. This page exists so you know exactly what Rising Resilience is — and what it is not — before you use the free resources or join a program.

Educational content only

Everything on this website and in Rising Resilience programs — including the Rise Steady guide, blog posts, workshops, the New Year RISE Reset, speaking, and coaching — is educational content about resilience, educator and personal sustainability, and nervous-system regulation practices, offered through the RISE Framework™: Reflect, Identify, Stand, Emerge. It is general information, shared from my experience as an educator, speaker, and resilience practitioner.

Not medical or mental health advice

I am not a doctor, therapist, counselor, or licensed mental health professional, and Rising Resilience does not provide medical care, mental health treatment, diagnosis, or therapy. Nothing on this site or in a program is a substitute for professional medical or mental health advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Always talk with your own doctor, therapist, or other qualified professional about questions concerning your physical or mental health, and do not delay getting professional help because of something you read or heard here. If a practice shared in a session does not feel right for your body or your situation, stop and do what is right for you.

If you need help right now: If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 in the United States to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, call 911, or go to your nearest emergency room. Please get support right away — this website and my programs are not crisis services.

Not legal, financial, or other professional advice

From time to time, content may touch on work, money, or life decisions. That content is general and educational. It is not legal, tax, financial, or career advice for your specific situation, and it does not create a professional advisory relationship. Please consult a qualified professional for advice about your circumstances.

No guaranteed results

Resilience is personal, and every person’s situation is different. I share practices and stories because they have helped real people, including me — but I cannot and do not guarantee any specific result, outcome, income, health improvement, or change from using this site or joining a program. Any stories or examples shared are individual experiences, not a promise of what will happen for you. What you take from this work, and what you do with it, is yours.

Your responsibility

By using this site and its programs, you take responsibility for your own well-being and decisions. Listen to your body, honor your limits, take breaks when you need them, and seek professional support whenever you need more than education and encouragement.

External links

This site links to other websites and platforms — for example, The Collective, payment and email services, and resources I recommend. I am not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of those sites. A link is not an endorsement of everything on that site.
