Lauren London is finding her way to peace.

latimes.com/lifestyle/imag…
Her aunt once told her “to always work on my spirit” but Lauren London has learned that what makes the difference is “the actual practice.”

So she rises early, an hour before she has to, and approaches each day with intention.

latimes.com/lifestyle/imag…
It’s been just over two years since her partner, rapper Nipsey Hussle, was murdered outside of his store in L.A. and London took a step back from public life just to maintain.

She’s prioritizing herself and family. She’s been reflecting on her career and purpose. She’s learning to embrace the smaller joys.

“It’s little miracles that happen every day that we ignore.”

Even before she had any intimate experience with death, @laurenlondon thought deeply about why we are here.

As @LaurenLondon continues to seek peace and truth, she’s discovering what she wants to share with the world.

“I think the coolest part of me are the things unseen,” she says. “And I think those are the things that I want to share.”
