Most people rebuild their lives only after things fall apart, but what if your rise begins in silence? In this episode, Kelly O’Brien shares her “quiet rise,” a journey through IVF, endometriosis, a near-death experience, burnout, and the reinvention that followed.

Kelly O’Brien joins me for a deeply moving conversation about what she calls “the quiet rise”. The season where everything looks fine on the outside, but inside, you’re unraveling. From enduring 14 rounds of IVF, stage IV endometriosis, and a near-fatal internal bleed to rebuilding her life, identity, and purpose, Kelly’s story is one of courage, grief, reinvention, and self-trust.

She opens up about navigating high-functioning struggle in corporate life, the hidden emotional toll of infertility, and the moment she realized she needed to redefine her future. We also explore how her lived experience sparked the creation of Elysium Wellness and her passion for accessible, at-home recovery tools like red-light therapy.

This episode is a reminder that resilience isn’t loud and that sometimes, the rise happens in the quiet.
