ETHOS
To create an emotionally rich and thought-provoking space where the foundation for growth is not only laid, but strengthened. Life’s complexity often requires more than resilience; it calls for meaningful support. In the midst of uncertainty, challenge, and transition, the presence of guidance becomes essential—shaping your understanding, expanding your awareness, and awakening your highest potential.
This is an invitation to pause, to shift your perspective, and to question the familiar narratives you hold about yourself and the world. True change begins where comfort ends.
CHRISTIAN GIANNANTONIO, MA, PsyD Candidate
FOUNDER OF THRIVE OR DIE
​Christian holds a B.A. and M.A. in Psychology and is currently completing a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (PsyD). He currently works at a residential treatment center supporting adolescents and young adults.
​
After a series of life-altering shifts and deep self-reflection, Christian left his hometown of Philadelphia at 23 and headed out to Orange County, California. Looking back, it was evident that he was seeking clarity, adventure, and something real. Along the way, his passion for guiding others toward purpose, resilience, and truth took shape—and Thrive or Die was born.
THRIVE OR DIE MENTORING—MISSION
​To awaken those lost in distraction.
​
Many of us feel stuck—held back by unresolved traumas and issues, internal chaos, and the silent fear that we're not fully living. Thrive or Die exists to break that paralysis.
It’s a call to confront what’s been avoided, to step forward with courage, and to live deliberately.
