About

Founder and Creator

I am Lou Hargrove, the Owner/Creator of Red Butterfly Sanctuary. I am a certified Life Coach specializing in Self-Intimacy. I have learned the importance of intentional self-love and allowing ourselves self-care regularly. In 2015, I began my personal love journey, which, over the years, turned into my self-love journey, which doubled as my healing journey. I could then find myself in a place of love and self-discovery.  This same journey is what brought me to discover my passion for waist beads. Starting out as a weight loss tool, waist beads helped me to realize my own beauty and worth.
I was searching for a way to feel better within myself. My first strand of waist beads forced me to look in the mirror and truly see myself for the first time in years. The excitement I felt at that moment was indescribable. I knew I could not keep this love and energy to myself. So I've delved into research and practice to offer high-quality waist beads for other women's personal love and healing journey. I want women to experience true love and passion in every aspect of their lives, especially that deep, undeniable love that lives inside all of us. 
Once we discover that we are all love manifested into human form, we can open ourselves up to a world of unlimited possibilities.
