Episode 18: Rising Above – Marissa Yubas on Resilience, Recovery, and Transformation
This week, we are honored to introduce Marissa Yubas, a true testament to resilience, recovery, and transformation.
Marissa’s life story is nothing short of extraordinary. Living with chronic illness since birth, she faced unimaginable hardship from a young age. At just 9 years old, she experienced profound loss, and by the age of 7, she began her battle with addiction. Despite these overwhelming challenges, Marissa went on to earn two degrees while still actively struggling with addiction. After a decade as a professional athlete, her life took a transformative turn in 2020 when she made the courageous decision to get clean.
Now, as a dedicated stepmother to two incredible kids—one with autism—Marissa shares her powerful journey of overcoming trauma, embracing personal growth, and finding strength in the face of adversity. Her story is raw, real, and deeply inspiring—a testament to the power of acceptance, perseverance, and the unyielding will to rise above.

- Addiction and recovery: Marissa’s candid discussion of her struggles and triumphs.
- Chronic illness: Navigating life with illness and finding strength through it.
- Transformation: How embracing the healing process led to a complete life overhaul.
