Alright, let’s get real for a sec. Life hasn’t always been a smooth ride for me. From navigating the welfare system to dreaming big about generational wealth, I’ve been through the trenches. But guess what? Our struggle doesn’t define us. Nope. We are resourceful and abundant. And if you’re reading this, you’re ready to glow up in every sense of the word. So buckle up, because I’m about to share some transformative glow up strategies that will empower your journey like never before.


Why Glow Up Is More Than Skin Deep


When you hear “glow up,” what pops into your head? A fresh haircut? New makeup? Sure, those are part of it. But a true glow up is a full-on transformation that touches your mind, body, and soul. It’s about stepping into your power, owning your story, and creating a life that feels authentic and abundant.


Think of it like this: your glow up is a garden. You gotta plant the right seeds (habits), water them (self-care), and pull out the weeds (negative self-talk). Over time, that garden blooms into something breathtaking. And trust me, it’s worth the work.


Here’s a little secret: I found my glow up path through a glow up masterclass. It wasn’t just about looking good; it was about feeling good, building confidence, and setting goals that aligned with my dreams. If you want to dive deeper, that masterclass is a game-changer.

Transformative Glow Up Strategies to Elevate Your Life


Ready for some real talk? Here are the glow up strategies that changed my life and can change yours too. These aren’t just fluff—they’re practical, actionable, and designed to help you build a life of abundance and joy.


1. Mindset Reset: Reclaim Your Narrative


Your mind is the command center of your glow up. If you’re stuck in a loop of “I can’t” or “I’m not enough,” it’s time to flip the script. Start by journaling your thoughts daily. Write down what you’re grateful for, your wins (big or small), and affirmations that pump you up.


Example: Instead of saying, “I’m broke,” try, “I am learning to manage my money wisely and build wealth.” It sounds simple, but this shift rewires your brain for success.


2. Holistic Self-Care: Nourish Your Whole Being


Self-care isn’t just bubble baths and face masks (though those are nice). It’s about nourishing your body, mind, and spirit. That means eating foods that fuel you, moving your body in ways that feel good, and carving out time for meditation or prayer.


Pro tip: Create a morning ritual that sets the tone for your day. Even 10 minutes of deep breathing or stretching can make a huge difference.


3. Financial Empowerment: Build Your Wealth Mindset


Money can be a touchy subject, especially when you’re coming from a place of scarcity. But here’s the truth: financial freedom is possible. Start small by tracking your expenses, setting a budget, and learning about investing.


Real talk: I used to think wealth was for “other people.” Now, I’m building generational wealth, and so can you. It’s about mindset and consistent action.


4. Creative Expression: Let Your Soul Shine


Whether it’s painting, writing, dancing, or cooking, creative expression is a powerful tool for healing and growth. It reconnects you with your inner self and helps you process emotions.


Try this: Dedicate 15 minutes a day to a creative hobby. No pressure, just pure joy.


5. Community Connection: Find Your Tribe


You don’t have to do this alone. Surround yourself with people who uplift and inspire you. Join groups, attend workshops, or connect online with like-minded souls.


Fun fact: When I found my community, my glow up accelerated. We lift each other up, share resources, and celebrate wins together.

From Welfare to Wealth: My Personal Glow Up Story


Let me get a little personal here. There was a time when I was living on welfare, feeling stuck and overwhelmed. The system can make you feel like you’re less than, but I refused to let that be my story. I started small—learning about budgeting, setting goals, and investing in myself.


I remember the first time I bought a book on financial literacy. It felt like a secret code to a new world. Slowly but surely, I built skills, confidence, and a mindset that screamed abundance. Today, I’m not just independent—I’m generational wealth minded.


This journey wasn’t easy. There were setbacks, doubts, and days I wanted to quit. But every time I reminded myself that our struggle doesn’t define us, I found the strength to keep going. And that’s the magic of a glow up—it’s a journey of resilience and empowerment.


Practical Tips to Start Your Glow Up Today


Okay, enough talk. Let’s get into some practical steps you can take right now to kickstart your glow up journey.


  • Set Clear Intentions: Write down what you want to achieve in the next 3, 6, and 12 months.

  • Declutter Your Space: A tidy environment = a tidy mind. Start with one drawer or corner.

  • Limit Negative Influences: Unfollow social media accounts that drain your energy.

  • Invest in Learning: Take a course, read a book, or listen to podcasts that inspire you.

  • Celebrate Small Wins: Did you drink more water today? Celebrate it! Every step counts.


Remember, glow ups aren’t overnight miracles. They’re about consistent, loving effort.


Embrace the Soft Life: Your Glow Up Is a Lifestyle


Here’s the thing—glowing up isn’t about grinding yourself to the bone. It’s about embracing a soft life where you prioritize your well-being, creativity, and joy. It’s about saying yes to rest, yes to boundaries, and yes to yourself.


Lela Love Lee’s vision of a soft life is exactly that—a holistic approach to living that honors your whole self. When you combine that with strategic business growth and community, you’re unstoppable.


So, what’s stopping you? Your glow up is waiting. Take that first step, and watch how your life transforms.
