Welcome!

Hey guys!! Welcome to the site. I'm Stephanie. Nice to meet you!

What is Rise & Thrive?

Simply just that. We're going to learn to rise and thrive.

Who are you anyways?

I used to be angry elf. My nickname was literally angry elf. I'm 5 foot nothing, coming to you from Cape Cod, Massachusetts. I'm a wife and mother to four fur babies. Growing up, I didn't realize how unhappy I was with myself until I reached my rock bottom at age 26. Up until then, I walked through life having zero relationship with myself. I had constant anxiety, was depressed, fearful, confused...., all negative emotions. I always had that chip on my shoulder, rushing around and angry at the world.

I didn't know me. I didn't know who I was. I didn't know that I existed.

It was time for a change.

And I did it.

I changed.

No longer angry elf. I don't carry any weight on my shoulders. I'm super transparent. I can't lie. I used to lie to myself every day, all day. I would talk myself out of things that I knew would be beneficial to me. I would talk myself into things I know I didn't want to do, but would do them anyways. There was no relationship with me. I was abusing myself and I got tired of it. That's when I woke up.

This cannot be it. There has to be more to life.

I"m here to tell you, there is so much more. But it all starts with YOU. We're all looking for an answer outwards and nobody is there to teach us that it starts within. I became the role model that I was looking for my whole life.

YOU are the role model for yourself.

Maybe you're not there yet, and that's ok. It's not something that just happens overnight. We have to FIND it, SEARCH for it and WORK for it.

That's what I'm here for. I want to help you find yourself. Figure out what the hell is wrong and why is it the way it is.

How do you want to live?
