Redefining Success: Kristina Lubovna’s Perspective on Purpose and Impact

214

Kristina Lubovna is a UGC content creator stepping into modeling, having carved out a niche in wellness on Instagram. Before she became the person with influence and sway she is today, she lived through hardship that caused her to reinvent herself for a new platform, a new way of life.

Rising above the life she lived, Lubovna embraced holistic living, sharing on her platform, and built a life of success that she leads today.

Before: Learning to Overcome Lubovna grew up in a small town in Russia but came to the US. Adjusting to a new culture can be challenging, but she has immersed herself, moving on from the hardship of her previous marriage and subsequent divorce.

Of the relationship, she says, “My marriage/divorce was the biggest traumatic event in my life that completely changed the trajectory of where I was going.”

Getting back on her feet after this difficult time was not easy. Lubovna says she was isolated and afraid of men, and the period changed her views on relationships, including her relationship to herself. After processing and relearning how to care for herself, she is 10 years out from that time, and still experiencing ups and downs, but she says, “I am here now and happier than ever.”

After: Reinvention Since leaving her relationship and relearning herself, Lubovna has been committed to her health and longevity, going so far as to consume olive oil regularly for its health benefits.

She says one of her greatest accomplishments is, “Being alive, still, healthy, and happy.”

Lubovna is a holistic content creator and previously had her own website where she recommended health regimens to people, including her own friends and family. She takes pride in the help she believes she has given to people with her wellness recommendations.

She gives back not only to her friends and family but also to those who need assistance most, who can understand the struggle she went through to get out of that difficult time in her life. Lubovna gives money to women in Kenya, hoping to provide the aid they may need.

Despite her tendency to be humble and quiet about her personal life, she aims to use her platform and collaborations with leaders in her field to pave the way for women to transition into different career paths, despite fear, stigma, or persecution.

Lubovna says, “Making the world a bit more beautiful place is always my goal.”

And with her shift into modeling, beauty has become her career.

A Beautiful Future in Modeling Lubovna is not abandoning her platform or fully shifting away from UGC content. Rather, she is combining her interest in beauty with the reach she has built in wellness.

In the future, Lubovna aims to continue her UGC work and brand deals while branching out into modeling. With this second opportunity, she hopes to continue sharing what she learns about success with her friends and family, just as she has with her wellness work.

As for her personal brand, Lubovna intends to get to know herself and her purpose, and to gain more confidence in her work and personality. She aims to further develop herself so she can continue to find the peace she has fought for and give back to the people who have helped her, as well as to the global community she is part of.

In her next chapter, Lubovna says her goals are: “Finding people who have recreated themselves and left what no longer served them, who continue to evolve and grow into amazing people, regardless of what life throws at them and what they have been through, [and] full self-acceptance.”
