BEYOND THE BIO

Who is ‘Elyshia’

This is the part that doesn't fit in a LinkedIn bio. What makes me ‘Lysh’

I've tried to do it all. I've done the hustle. The burnout. The rise and rebuild.
And now, I choose truth over trends.

I value resonance over status.

  • I choose family, friendship, and freedom before chasing vanity metrics.

  • I believe in wealth through experience, not just financial gain.

“I’ve stood barefoot in the snow at sunrise after 16-hour shifts, questioning everything—and knowing deep down that I was exactly where I was meant to be.”


“I’ve styled a wardrobe with just ten pieces and made it feel more ‘me’ than a room full of trend buys.”

From late-night business pivots to sunrise surfs with my kids—I live my values in real time.

The Vibe I Live By

Direct, no fluff.

  • Deep trust in yourself.

  • Bold choices with heart.

  • Chaos that serves you—not the other way around.

  • Travel and adventure > stuff.

You don’t need to be the loudest to be the most powerful. You just need to live aligned.

Live your best life. Even if it's a little untamed.
