The Lulu Essey Podcast
Welcome to The Lulu Essey Podcast—an unedited, unscripted dive into what it really means to do life your way.
This is a place for honest and vulnerable conversation and exploration. It’s an invitation to come as you are—no judgment, just the freedom to be fully you. This is an invitation to start embracing and loving the gloriously messy, magically magnificent parts of yourself!
Creating a life you love is built in small steps taken daily. My hope is that these conversations bring you the tools, inspiration, and self-belief to move forward with love and confidence.

The Secret to Mental Fitness: The Light AND Shadow
What if the secret to mental fitness isn't about staying positive all the time but learning to embrace the darker moments too? In this powerful final episode of the Mental Fitness series, Lulu explores why resisting your emotions actually makes them stronger—and how accepting both the light AND shadow can lead to true strength. Through personal stories, practical tools, and science-backed insights, she shares what she's learned about moving forward, even on the darkest days. Join Lulu as she redefines what it means to be mentally fit—and remember, your shadows don't make you less mentally fit; they make you gloriously, beautifully human.
