Stars of Hastings 2025

Emma Schuch

I am a dedicated wife, daughter, mother of two beautiful girls, sister, and friend. A proud cancer survivor, I am passionate about giving back to my community. I am known for my outgoing personality, I thrive on my connections with others, whether it’s through giving back to my community through charity work or my role in the Flynns Beach surf lifesaving club where I am an aged manager for the under 9 nippers. 

As the Director of Strive Finance, a mortgage broking business I founded nine years ago, I have built a successful company that now boasts a team of five employees. My entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to achieving goals (mine and my clients) has fuelled the growth of Strive Finance, providing clients with expert mortgage advice and solutions. 

Outside of work, I am an avid runner and competitor, continually seeking new challenges and ways to stay active and give back through fundraising and awareness. With my nurturing nature, vibrant energy, and entrepreneurial mindset, I try and be a true inspiration to those around me. 

I am motivated to be a part of Dancing with the Stars because it presents a unique opportunity to give back to our community while raising essential funds and awareness for the Cancer Council. As a cancer survivor, I’ve personally experienced the incredible support provided by the Cancer Council, and I’m honoured to contribute to their mission. This is not just a chance to support a cause I’m deeply passionate about, but also an exciting way to connect with others and have some fun. Being involved in this experience means so much to me, and I’m excited to be part of a journey that helps make a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer. 

My Updates

One Day, One Cause, Your Presence Matters

Giving back to the community is something I deeply value, but this cause holds a special place in my heart. As a cancer survivor, I’ve personally experienced the incredible support provided by Cancer Council, and I’m honoured to contribute to their vital work.
This isn’t just a chance to support a cause I’m passionate about—it’s also a unique opportunity to connect with others, challenge myself, and have some fun along the way.

 

I’m bringing Acro to the stage alongside the talented Jorjia-Rose from Coastal Dance. A huge thank you to Lauren and Jorjia-Rose from Coastal Dance for their time and dedication. Acro is all about big tricks and dynamic movements—expect flips, lifts, and some gravity-defying moments that will bring an exciting edge to the performance!

 

My fundraising event will be a truly unforgettable celebration of mystery, music, and meaning. Guests will embark on a journey to three secret locations, enjoying a day filled with great food, live music, cocktails, surprise entertainment, and plenty of fun along the way.
The event kicks off at 11:30 AM on Saturday, July 19. Tickets are $120, with all proceeds supporting Cancer Council’s invaluable work. Limited tickets are available, so act fast! Purchase your tickets here: https://www.trybooking.com/DBIBP.

 

I’m most excited about fundraising and making a meaningful contribution to a cause close to my heart. It’s incredible to be part of this generous community.
As for nerves—Mastering the technique of the dance is a challenge, and I’m excited to push my body to try new things—embracing the physical demands and technical precision required for this performance.
