“Shame is a triggered threat — a real or perceived threat to connection and belonging. So when we feel shame, it kicks off a cascade of reactions, defenses, responses.” — Kyira Wackett

Kyira Wackett is a licensed mental health therapist specializing in shame and anxiety. She is the owner of Adversity Rising, a company which equips people with the confidence and skills to write their own stories. Her work ranges from one-on-one coaching to corporate wellness packages with a focus on what she calls the anti-Band-Aid movement — resisting the quick fix in favor of doing the work necessary to make meaningful and sustainable change. The highlight of her work is her signature program, That Life AR, where she walks people through her five-step therapeutic process, which she believes can combat any pain point that comes our way because we all deserve to live a life in which we can thrive.
