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?

Do you feel lonely and isolated?

Are you on a healing journey?

Do you have fear of change or uncertainty?

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.

    This series is for those standing at the quiet crossroads of change. The moment after survival, when something within begins to stir.

    Through honest reflections, lived stories, and gentle guidance, Tales of Awakening explores what it means to wake up to yourself again after loss, burnout, grief, or long seasons of simply getting through. These are stories of unravelling and remembering. Of releasing old identities and listening for the quieter, truer voice within.

    Each episode invites you to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with your inner wisdom as we navigate healing, consciousness, purpose, creativity, and the courage it takes to choose a more intentional life.

    This is not about fixing yourself.
    It’s about coming home to who you’ve always been.

    If you’re on a healing journey, feeling the pull toward something deeper, or sensing that life is asking you to awaken rather than endure, Tales of Awakening is for you.

You want to save them, but what if saving them means losing yourself? Let’s talk about the reality of addiction, the heartbreak of trying to help, and the hardest lesson I ever had to learn: Sometimes, love isn’t enough."

    Growing Up in the Hood vs. Growing Up in the ‘Good’ Neighborhood—How Your Roots Shape You


    "Where you grow up can define your early experiences, but it doesn’t have to define your future. Whether you come from the hood or an ideal neighborhood, the real question is—how do you rise beyond your circumstances?"
