EP 50: Self-Love Is the Real Glow Up w/ Lulu Essey
What if the reason you still feel off… isn’t because you haven’t done enough—but because you’ve been leaving yourself behind?
In this powerful episode, Anniston Riekstins sits down with Lulu Essey—speaker, life coach, and mental fitness advocate—to explore what it truly means to come home to yourself. After navigating decades of bipolar disorder while building a successful career, Lulu shares why self-love isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about no longer abandoning who you are.
