About Thrive
Thrive was founded in early 2016 by Alexandra Cachia, birthed from her passion for community and nature. Growing up as an activist and environmentalist, her journey took her through different worlds. From the corporate world to experiencing worldwide travel that eventually led her to an inner journey. Through self-development work and her passion to support a more peaceful and greener world, she discovered the world of permaculture. She eventually became a Permaculture Designer and Educator, spreading holistic knowledge on health and connecting to nature. Hosting many workshops such as organic gardening and composting, to adults and children alike, at festivals in New Zealand, Holland, UK and Malta. After running a Permaculture research farm in Mgarr Malta, she worked as a farmhand on Malta's leading organic farm. This journey led her to the understanding that our basic human need of community and connection is the way forward in a happier and healthier world. Based on Joanna Macey's philosophy of Deep Ecology, Alexandra and her team are dedicated to bringing people together in a safe space that offers self-expressiveness, playfulness and self-development, to experience oneself, each other and nature.
​
Later on her journey, Alexandra was entrusted to curate and manage several workshop areas in local and foreign festivals, providing spaces on self-development, sustainability, wellness and mindfulness. Her passion in this eventually lead her to the birth of Thrive, offering events and workshops that support companies, NGOs and individuals to incorporate health, wellness, and mindfulness in everyday life.
