Linda Andrews, the dynamic Founder & CEO of Lila Life, embodies resilience and extraordinary achievement. Her journey is marked by stellar academic and athletic accomplishments, including her status as an All-American and record-setter at Cardinal Newman High School, and her exceptional performance as an NCAA collegiate scholarship swimmer at Rutgers University. Linda's unwavering commitment to personal growth is underscored by her triumph over Adverse Childhood Events and her advocacy for causes such as Title IX compliance during her time at Rutgers.

Transitioning from her collegiate success, Linda embarked on a versatile career path. Beginning in the wellness sector, she excelled as a sales professional before making a significant impact in finance. At Morgan Stanley, Linda rose to the position of Vice President, where she managed business development for 220 financial advisors in the Palm Beach Complex, while also partnering with a team overseeing $300 million in Assets Under Management (AUM). Her dedication to responsible and sustainable investing reflects her deep-seated commitment to financial empowerment and well-being education.

Over the past decade, Linda has honed her expertise across diverse disciplines, including yoga, meditation, mindset coaching, spiritual life coaching, business, marketing, health coaching, and plant-based culinary arts. Engaging in prestigious programs such as the Accelerate Levan Center at NSU, HerIncubator, Luminary Fellow, Preseed Bootcamp, Milestones by NASDAQ, YC Startup School, and Founders University Intensive with Launch VC, she has garnered profound insights into startups and entrepreneurship.

In 2013, Linda ventured into entrepreneurship, founding successful wellness brands like Loca Fit Club, Vitamin Linda, Rise to Thrive, FoodSparkle, and ultimately Lila Life. Recognizing the potential in venture capital, she transitioned full-time in 2018 to support early-stage founders, leveraging her extensive experiences and insights.

Through her acclaimed podcast, "The Lila Life Show," and The Lila Life Collective membership, Linda empowers emerging entrepreneurs by seamlessly integrating business architecture with well-being practices. Inspired by the concept of "lila," or divine play, Linda envisions a world where individuals unlock their full potential through the harmonization of business and well-being.

Beyond her professional endeavors, Linda is deeply committed to community support, mentorship, and collaboration with organizations such as Student Aces and 1909. Residing with her husband and pups in West Palm Beach, Florida, Linda finds joy in culinary arts, artistry, amateur farming, aspiring surfing, and dedicated meditation practice.
