Arayelle’s story is one of the most raw and inspiring transformations ever shared on Rise Above.

A Boston native, she opens up about growing up in chaos, battling addiction, stripping to survive, and finding herself trapped in toxic relationships. After years of substance abuse, self-harm, and pain, she found healing through faith, therapy, and fitness — and is now nearly five years sober.

In this episode, Arayelle and host Kevin Lanning have a deeply honest conversation about recovery, mental health, and learning to fill your own cup again.She now helps women in sobriety through fitness, mentorship, and her “Fellowship & Fitness” program — proving that no matter how far you fall, you can rise again.
