Gigi McConnell is a Master Esthetician and founder of the award-winning skincare practice South Bay Beauty, Skin Rejuvenation. After more than a decade in the beauty industry in Los Angeles, she worked with a diverse clientele, including high-profile individuals, gaining a unique perspective on the pressures and unrealistic expectations that shape today's beauty culture. Her experience revealed that the pursuit of perfection often comes at the cost of self-worth. That realization inspired a new mission: helping people move beyond comparison, perfectionism, and unrealistic beauty standards to rediscover their true value.

Gigi is the author of Rise Above: Smashing the Mirror on Today's Beauty Standards, where she shares both her professional insight and personal message:
"You are not created to become beautiful. You are meant to remember you already are—and live in this truth."

Gigi is available for Keynote speaking events - podcasts as well as Woman's Wellness Events.
