Buckle up, this conversation is an exhilarating, hour-long ride with plenty of twists and turns to make you think. Evanna Lynch is widely known for her portrayal of Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter film series, but today, we get to know Evanna as a person, not her childhood character. She’s a kind but powerful animal activist, eating disorder survivor, podcast host, stage/film actress, and soon-to-be author. Yes, we open with Harry Potter talk, but we also dive into her teenage struggles with anorexia, the idea of perfection, manifestation, cruelty-free beauty, the abundance of veganism, and more. Listen in and lift up your day.
What we discuss in this episode:
Evanna’s experience as Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter film series
How the Harry Potter books helped her through her eating disorder.
The cowardly pursuit of perfection
The realities of animal testing for beauty
Her work with Save the Asian Elephants
