Meet Lizzie (aka @sealillly): fighter, model, and creator behind How To Live 30, sharing real fitness, mindset, and lifestyle tips for thriving in your 30s.

About Me

Thirty, Flirty & Thriving

HowToLive30 is your guide to living well in your 30s. I focus on what actually helps — clear workouts, realistic nutrition, supportive mindset tools, affordable skincare, and smarter money habits. Fewer buzzwords, more checklists you can use today.

Consistency Beats Intensity

Small steps win long-term. I’d rather you show up four times a week for years than burn out in two weeks of extreme effort.

Clarity Over Clutter

I trim the noise so you can act. Every piece of content is designed to give you a clear next step — not just inspiration.

Budget-Conscious Quality

Great results don’t require luxury everything. I recommend what actually works at every price point — and I’m honest about the splurges that are worth it.

Lizzie — Liz Lightning

Hi, I’m Lizzie

AKA Liz Lightning

I’m a content creator & influencer, fitness coach, and creative at heart. Over the years, I’ve worked with and modeled for brands like Sun Bum, Aerie, and MasterCraft Boats — which sparked my passion for storytelling through both movement and visuals.

After a decade of kickboxing — and most of those rounds sparring men — I believe fitness is more than physical. It’s about confidence, energy, and alignment with who you are. At How To Live 30, I share routines, tools, and inspiration that make you feel strong, balanced, and lit up from within.
