About Lou
Lou is a Style & Confidence Coach who helps women to fall in love with themselves, exude self confidence, and transform their mindset and wardrobe to become the magnetic woman they were born to be.
She believes that every single woman on this planet is capable of success and worthy of a life she loves, but we have to learn to love ourselves first.
Lou is also a published author of the book “Boney & I: Anorexia, Ustrasana and the Lost Apple Core,” is a true story of a young woman’s successful battle to overcome anorexia. Lou and ‘Boney’—the voice inside Lou that makes her starve herself—embark on a journey together that takes them across the world in search of an elusive ‘paradise’. But the real journey is within. You can find her book on Amazon.
When she’s not talking self love, styling clients or hosting a retreat, you can find Lou awaiting her next journey at an airport, or spending some downtime on her yoga mat.
