Hello! My name is Lo and I am the founder of Passion & Growth.

As a baby, I had a tumor on my face. The tumor grew rapidly and unfortunately, there wasn’t a lot of treatment at the time. I had many surgeries throughout my childhood and young adulthood leaving scars behind. Due to the trauma I faced, I developed self-limiting beliefs about myself. I told myself I wasn’t pretty, I’m fat, no one will want to be with me, I am not worthy. I know I’m not the only out there who has felt those things. I didn’t know how to live every day feeling that way. I didn’t want to deal with those hard feelings. I drowned a lot of the way I felt in alcohol and food. Even worse, I pushed anyone who was close to me away.

About four years ago I decided enough was enough and at some point, I had to deal with what I was feeling. I started reading every personal development book imaginable, I watched documentaries, I journaled, I did it ALL. It was HARD and there were days when I didn’t feel like putting in the work. That’s when I knew I needed it even more. Then one day it kinda clicked and all of a sudden I noticed that my mindset was changing. I could now derail my thoughts if they were spiraling and I started to believe in myself.

I turned 32 this year and I’ve never felt so confident and proud of who I am. I still struggle every day, but it’s in a different way. I no longer feel defeated. I’m grateful for this opportunity to serve and I look forward to the exciting changes and growth I will see within Passion and Growth. Thank you for joining me in this journey!

 

xoxo,

Lo
