Arianna's story goes beyond the realm of journalism; she is an emblematic figure in the world of business and an advocate for holistic success metrics that prioritize well-being and happiness.
At the young age of 16, Arianna's adventurous spirit brought her to the UK.

Arianna's foray into the broadcasting world through co-hosting the BBC One show ‘Saturday Night at the Mill’ further amplified her voice, showcasing her versatility. The year 2005 witnessed the birth of The Huffington Post, and under Arianna's visionary leadership, it clinched the esteemed Pulitzer Prize. She has also become the Founder of Thrive, aiming to dispel the noxious myth that success is synonymous with burnout. Serving on boards for organisations like Onex and The B Team, and being recognised by Time Magazine and Forbes, are testaments to her profound influence.

Through her 15 books, she continues to enlighten readers on holistic success metrics, with books like ‘Thrive: The Third Metric to Redefining Success and Creating a Life of Well-Being, Wisdom, and Wonder’ and ‘The Sleep Revolution: Transforming Your Life, One Night At A Time’ embraced globally, becoming instant international bestsellers.
Her 2011 TEDx Talk, ‘How to Succeed? Get More Sleep’, further emphasised the importance of balance in one's life, drawing applause and acclaim from global audiences.
