LILY'S STORY
As a notable voice in the twenty-something’s wellness space, Lily has built a loyal audience who trusts her insights on just about everything - from the tough topics like battling anxiety and inching towards self acceptance - to lighter conversations like not-so-great first dates and hilarious roommate anecdotes .
Lily Rakow is a speaker, writer, and mental health advocate. At the early age of 12, Lily recognized the potential of her voice when a creative writing submission she drafted, based on her middle school struggle with popularity, was published in Discovery Girl Magazine. From that moment, Lily caught a glimpse at her calling — to use storytelling as a tool to inspire & heal others. After earning a certification in Integrative Nutrition, Lily decided to focus her professional efforts on guiding other young women on a journey of self discovery and acceptance. Now, Lily uses that same formula of deep vulnerability to spread a positive message to her listener base. With millions of downloads, 80/20 has become an iconic wellness brand for women who are juggling the ebbs and flows of early adulthood.
Beyond the mic, you might find Lily cooking up her mom's recipes in the kitchen, laughing with her sisters, or spending time in the sunshine.
