Episode 10: Elisa Røtterud: From Fashion Director to Fearless Explorer

Fun, unafraid and always unapologetically herself. These are some of the qualities Elisa Røtterud possesses that make her a constant source of inspiration for everyone at Holzweiler. We can always rely on Elisa’s drive and determination to motivate us when times get tough.Having grown up in Oslo, Elisa began her career as a fashion director before making a drastic, yet not completely unrelated shift into becoming a full-time adventurer. A sense of fearlessness is required for both, yet this time Elisa’s location has shifted from showrooms to mountain tops. Elisa has dedicated her life to experiencing new cultures, and travelling to some of the farthest flung places on earth to challenge herself to experience surviving in the full force of Mother Nature. In this episode, Elisa of course fills Susanne in on some of her latest adventures, but she also takes a moment to discuss her core values, the importance of spending time alone and how practices like yoga can instil a hectic life with balance.

Om Podcasten

Welcome to the Take a Moment podcast, a space to block out the noise and let inspiration flow.Our host, Susanne Holzweiler, is also one of the founders of our company. She’s been there since the early days when Holzweiler first started operating as a small agency in Oslo, and is now at the heart of operations as we transition into a global lifestyle brand. Take a Moment with Holzweiler is a podcast inspired by Susanne’s experience of juggling life with a rapidly expanding business. Back in 2016 Susanne was operating as Holzweiler’s CEO: ‘I had been working so much and so hard, after having the business for 10 years. I had also gotten 2 small kids during that period, and it was just everything at the same time. I was working day and night - every spare second I was spending working.’Susanne developed a bad case of burnout, and the remedy for this was quite literally to take a moment. Susanne shifted her lifestyle to allow for a space for wellness, meditation and rest, and to learn new information from books, podcasts and her peers.Inspired by this, Take a moment with Holzweiler is our new podcast where we delve deep into the stories of the people who inspire us. There’s so much to learn if we take the time to listen to other people’s experiences, and this is what this podcast creates a space to do.As our Holzweiler family continues to grow, we get to know the stories of an ever expanding range of people, from royalty to leaders in the modern wellness movement. Holzweiler sits at the intersection of life and style, therefore we often take our inspiration from the real people living life with the values that align with our own.In the rush of the working week when everyone is dashing from meeting to meeting it’s hard to find the time to let creativity flow. So, we invite you to take a moment and join us for this podcast and see where inspiration from these stories can lead you to. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
