About This Podcast
Welcome to Strive. Rise. Thrive
Rising from the storm
I am your host Elise Smith, author of "The New Zealand Dream" trilogy.
Welcome to a space where transformation isn't just a goal- it's a way of life. At "Survive to Thrive," we believe in rewriting your story, not with perfection but with purpose. Whether you are navigating personal growth, shifting mindset, or building a business rooted in authenticity, we're here to guide you through the process.
Are you, feeling disconnected from your true self?
Do you have a desire for balance and wellbeing?
Are you lacking self-worth and confidence?
Are you frustrated with your current life or career?
Do you feel lonely and isolated?
Are you on a healing journey?
Do you have fear of change or uncertainty?
Are you struggling with self-doubt and mind set?
Are you overwhelmed and stressed?
Do you lack clarity and purpose?
Through trainings, immersive workshops, holistic retreats, and powerful digital resources - like ebooks, workbooks and guided practices - we help you peel back the layers and reonnect with your trueset self. As the author of The New Zealand Dream and 12 other inspiring books, I have walked this path of transformation, rising from life's storms to find clarity, courage, and hope.
