In this inspiring conversation, host Susanne Holzweiler welcomes the adventurous mountaineer and outdoor ambassador Elisa Røtterud, who has swapped the world of fashion for snow-covered peaks and breathtaking summits.

Together, they unpack each of these ten steps, discussing how Elisa applies them in extreme conditions high in the mountains — and how those same strategies can be translated into everyday routines. She opens up about the powerful self-talk she uses to keep herself going during tough climbs and how learning to bring that same energy into her daily life has been just as important as any summit.

The conversation dives into themes like biohacking, nutrition, breathing techniques, mental resilience, and practical wellness habits. Whether you’re conquering peaks or just navigating the ups and downs of everyday life, this episode offers tangible tools to help you feel stronger, healthier, and more grounded.

An energizing and empowering listen for anyone ready to level up their well-being — both on the mountain and at home.
