My journey through life has been one marred by child abduction, addiction, domestic abuse, undiagnosed ADHD, mental health problems and disability through multiple sclerosis. During this talk I go into detail about my recovery and embarking on a journey of entrepreneurship, offering motivation and inspiration for others to plough ahead and beat their own demons. Sprinkled with humour, uplifting and encouraging, it is a must for anyone who is struggling against adversity - something we can all relate to!

About Kate Stapleton

I am statistically almost impossible. I am an entrepreneur, executive assistant, personal trainer, nutritionist, and student hypnotherapist. Why is this almost an impossibility? I have lived a life that for many results in an early death.

I have overcome child abduction, undiagnosed ADHD, over two decades of drug and alcohol addiction, I was in a wheelchair for 18 months through multiple sclerosis, and I have survived suicide attempts due to borderline personality disorder. Every relationship I had was abusive in one form or another. Yet I have overcome all of these to rise to where I am today. I am nearly four years clean and sober by the grace of God and the Twelve Steps, and I never once gave up in all those decades of trauma.

I am now sharing my story, and how anyone can rise above life's challenges. I aim to inspire and empower others to face their situations head on, and share how even in the face of insurmountable circumstances, there is still gold at the end of the rainbow.
