Today we’d like to introduce you to Elu Hachi Arias.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
My journey has been anything but conventional, although it certainly started that way!
I began college studying architectural engineering, but quickly realized that the demanding, sleep-deprived workload was neither healthy nor sustainable. After spending countless nights building structures out of toothpicks and popsicle sticks, only to present them in an 8 a.m. class a few hours later, I started questioning whether this was really how we were meant to live and work.
I explored everything from art and sociology to cultural anthropology, biology and public relations before eventually settling on TV production. Like so many people, I entered the traditional 9-to-5 world, but I always felt there had to be something more. I just didn’t have examples of what that might look like.
So, while running the proverbial hamster wheel, I began doing the inner work. I explored who I was, what genuinely brought me joy, and what I believed my divine purpose to be. That journey led me to certifications in Holistic Life Coaching and Intuitive Counseling, but more importantly, it led me back to myself.
As I reconnected with my childhood passions, my love of nature, spirituality, creativity, and humanity, something beautiful happened. All those seemingly unrelated interests began connecting. I realized I didn’t have to choose between doing what I love and making a meaningful difference in the world. In fact, they were one and the same.
That realization became the foundation for NTRLifestyle and my philosophy of Symbiotic Living: bringing people, nature, ancestral wisdom, and modern innovation back into harmony.
Today, I’m building a holistic ecosystem of education, products, experiences, and consulting designed to help people live more consciously, joyfully, and in alignment with the natural world.
I see myself as both a student and a catalyst for evolution. My purpose is to help bridge generations, challenge outdated ways of thinking, and remind people of their own infinite potential.
Because I believe that when we heal and evolve individually, we create the possibility for collective transformation. As within, so without.
And the beautiful thing is, it all begins with you.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Smooth? Ha! Not exactly! But I wouldn’t trade the journey because every challenge has taught me something valuable.
One of my greatest struggles has been learning to trust myself in a world that constantly tells us who we’re supposed to be and what success is supposed to look like. For a long time, I followed the traditional path because I didn’t know there were other options. It took a lot of inner work, patience, and courage to unlearn those expectations and realize that I could create a life that actually felt good to live.
And that has completely changed how I define success. These days, I measure it by how good I feel, how much joy I experience, and whether I’m living in alignment with my values. Because really, what’s the point of achieving everything you’re supposed to want if you’re not enjoying your life?
From a business perspective, one of my biggest challenges with NTRLifestyle has been figuring out how to fit such an all-encompassing philosophy into a marketable box. I started with holistic life coaching and intuitive readings, but eventually realized I wanted to offer more tangible, practical ways for people to create balance and harmony in their everyday lives.
The challenge is that Symbiotic Living touches everything! Our health, homes, relationships, environment, technology, communities, and so much more. When you’re trying to communicate a philosophy that connects all these things, narrowing it down to one target audience, one pain point, or one simple elevator pitch can be quite an adventure. In my mind, it’s for everyone and can improve just about everything! LOL!
So a big part of my entrepreneurial journey has been learning how to translate that expansive vision into clear, relatable experiences and offerings that people can immediately recognize as valuable.
Another ongoing challenge is navigating an increasingly crowded, algorithm-driven digital landscape. There’s a difference between having something meaningful to share and making sure it reaches the people who will resonate with it. I’m constantly exploring more creative and effective ways to expand our visibility, build genuine connections, and inspire people to engage with the NTRLifestyle philosophy.
Ultimately, I’ve learned that growth isn’t always comfortable, and transformation rarely happens overnight. But I’ve also learned that the process itself can be joyful. I don’t need everything to be perfectly figured out to appreciate where I am.
The road may not always be smooth, but I’m enjoying the journey. And to me, that’s success!
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about NTRLifestyle?
NTRLifestyle is a regenerative lifestyle brand and consultancy built around a philosophy I call Symbiotic Living. Our mission is to help people restore harmony with themselves, each other, and the natural world by bringing ancestral wisdom, modern innovation, and holistic wellbeing together.
What makes NTRLifestyle different is that we challenge the idea that living consciously requires sacrifice. Somewhere along the way, we’ve been led to believe that living in harmony with nature means giving up modern comforts, convenience, beauty, or the things that bring us joy. I couldn’t disagree more!
I believe we can create lives that are more beautiful, more resilient, more fulfilling, and more aligned with the Divine Natural Order precisely because we’re working with nature rather than against it.
That’s really the foundation of Symbiotic Living. Instead of treating our health, homes, relationships, communities, technology, and environment as separate concerns, we look at how they connect and how those relationships can become mutually beneficial. Because, as I like to say, Everything Works Better When It Works Together!
NTRLifestyle brings this philosophy to life through holistic wellness products, educational resources, intuitive guidance, and lifestyle consulting. Our offerings range from simple everyday practices that support personal wellbeing to more comprehensive strategies for creating healthier homes, more regenerative environments, and intentional ways of living.
What I’m most proud of is developing a philosophy that brings together so many things we’re typically taught to keep separate. Ancient wisdom and modern technology. Personal wellbeing and environmental responsibility. Beauty and functionality. Individual fulfillment and collective benefit.
To me, these aren’t competing priorities. They’re pieces of the same beautiful puzzle.
Ultimately, I want people to know that NTRLifestyle isn’t about giving up the life you love to live more consciously. It’s about discovering how much better life can become when everything works together.
We’re not here to make sustainable living feel like another obligation. We’re here to make aligned living something people genuinely want to experience.
And hopefully, have a whole lot of fun along the way!
Before we go, is there anything else you can share with us?
If there’s one thing I’d love people to take away from my story, it’s that you don’t have to wait for the perfect circumstances to begin creating a life you genuinely love.
I think we’ve become so accustomed to surviving, striving, and constantly preparing for some better version of the future that we sometimes forget we’re actually supposed to enjoy being here!
And I don’t believe joy, peace, beauty, and fulfillment are luxuries we have to earn. They’re essential parts of the human experience.
You don’t have to completely reinvent your life overnight, either. Sometimes transformation begins with something as simple as questioning an old belief, spending more time in nature, creating a healthier environment, or giving yourself permission to do something that genuinely brings you joy.
Those small choices have a way of creating beautiful ripple effects, not just in our own lives, but in our relationships, communities, and the world around us.
So I would encourage everyone to get curious about what living in harmony actually looks and feels like for you. Question the things you’ve been taught to accept. Reconnect with what makes you feel alive. And remember that you have more power to shape your experience than you may realize.
Because ultimately, we’re not here just to survive the human experience. We’re here to live it!
Remember who you are. And have some fun while you’re at it!
