Summary

This is a Fan Fav episode. From housewife to building a billion-dollar business and now empowering women everywhere, I’m Lisa Bilyeu—and I know firsthand how powerfully our beliefs about beauty, worth, and confidence shape every part of our lives. In this deeply inspiring episode of Women of Impact, I sit down with my dear friend and extraordinary boudoir photographer Lindsey Hahn. After walking away from the glitzy Hollywood photography scene, Lindsey dedicated her career to helping real women unearth their confidence, see their own beauty, and truly embrace self-love—inside and out. We dig into what’s really behind the images that make women feel powerful, why only 4% of women consider themselves beautiful, and how you can transform your mindset, your self-talk, and even your own scars into the foundation of unshakable self-worth. This episode is packed with practical tips, raw stories, and permission to finally see yourself—flaws and all—with new eyes.
