In this powerful episode of Rise Above, Dr. Jason Rudolph — a psychologist with 28 years of sobriety — opens up about his daily cocaine addiction, massive consequences, failed attempts at school, gambling, lying, shame, and the moment he finally surrendered.
Jason shares how he went from doing cocaine every day for two years, destroying relationships, losing opportunities, and spiraling into secrecy — to becoming a respected psychologist who has helped thousands of addicts recover.
We walk through:
✔️ His childhood and early signs of addiction
✔️ Daily cocaine use, escalating to talk of smoking crack
✔️ Consequences he could no longer outrun
✔️ The God moment in a bar that changed everything
✔️ His surrender and journey through Hazelden, sober living, and rebuilding
✔️ Becoming Dr. Jason Rudolph — and helping others find the voice he once ignored
✔️ Mentorship, humility, boundaries, and why consequences save lives
Whether you’re new to recovery, long-term sober, or trying to help a loved one, this conversation will hit home. Jason’s humility, clarity, and brutal honesty make this one of the most powerful episodes of Rise Above.
