What do we do when the pain of the past is too much to bear? When trauma and shame overwhelm us? When we feel empty and worthless despite our success and daily triumphs?

We rise above our story.

Before Karena Kilcoyne was a successful criminal defense attorney, trauma defined her early life. Her mother tried to give her away at birth. Her father went to the federal penitentiary when she was 12, leaving the family poverty-stricken and Karena to care for her siblings and her mentally unstable mother. After her mother died, she adopted her 9-year-old brother and graduated from law school at the age of 24. She defended murderers and millionaires all while doubting her self-worth and suffering from depression and anxiety. Existing only in survival mode, she repeatedly recounted the stories she’d written about herself: that she would never be enough, that she could never be happy.

In Rise Above the Story, Karena shares with raw vulnerability how she rose above her stories  of abandonment, worthlessness, and shame. She’ll help you let go of your own past by embracing every beautiful, imperfect piece of yourself—no matter what your story looks like. She’ll teach you how to:

  • Acknowledge your story. Identify the story that’s limiting your life.
  • Untangle your story. Discover how your story took over your life by unearthing your repressed fear and shame.
  • Rise above your story. Explore how your hardships can serve you and learn how to finally love yourself unconditionally.

Rising above your story will empower you to live the life of your dreams. Karena’s beautifully simple, yet powerful, formula offers emotional freedom and unfettered joy when you’re ready to embrace the vibrant, worthy, and lovable person you truly are.

Your past doesn’t define you—you do. It’s time to rise above your story and live the authentic life you deserve.

About the Author

Karena  Kilcoyne

Karena Kilcoyne is a Midwesterner who packed her bags, kept her values, and moved to where the sun shines almost every day. Growing up, she dreamed of being a prolific writer. Instead, she graduated from Case Western Reserve School of Law and, after passing two state bar exams, she worked as a white-collar criminal defense attorney.

After a decades-long healing journey through her traumatic and painful childhood, Karena was inspired to follow her early dream of writing and share how she rose above the stories of her past. Through vivid, evocative, and transparent storytelling, she teaches others how to rise above their own stories and find peace, happiness, and self-love. Healed and happy, Karena has learned to have fun. She loves taking her fur babies on joyrides in her vintage Jeep Wagoneer, Woody, and traveling to far-flung places. She’s won a sailboat race to Cuba and is absolutely certain that water and wine are better with bubbles.
