Breaking Through, The Ellina Abovian Podcast

Welcome to Breaking Through with Ellina Abovian — a podcast and platform dedicated to real stories of resilience, healing, and transformation.

I’m Ellina Abovian — After more than 15 years in front of the camera telling other people’s stories, I realized it was time to tell my own. Breaking Through was born from the most challenging chapter of my life — a season of heartbreak, reinvention, and self-discovery — and has since become a space for honest conversations about what it really takes to rebuild, evolve, and rise.

Here, we talk about it all — from spirituality and self-growth to love, loss, purpose, and the courage to start over. Each episode features meaningful conversations with thought leaders, artists, healers, and everyday people who’ve turned their breaking points into breakthroughs.

If you’re navigating a new chapter, chasing meaning, or simply craving truth in a filtered world — you’re in the right place.

Subscribe and join me on the journey — one breakthrough at a time.

In this heartfelt episode of Breaking Through with Ellina Abovian, we sit down with Lucy Hart, a master microblading artist, licensed aesthetician, singer, mother, and resilient force of nature.
With roots in both the beauty and music worlds, Lucy’s story is anything but ordinary. At 21, she chased her dream of singing—recording with top producers, signing a label deal, and winning Hay Superstar (Armenian Idol) in 2008. But after a decade in the music industry, she returned to her first love: beauty. In 2015, she launched her own business, quickly becoming one of L.A.’s most trusted names in microblading.
Now, as a single mom and entrepreneur, Lucy shares her powerful journey of reinvention—what it means to rebuild after divorce, the strength found in female friendships, and the daily work of choosing self-love, peace, and purpose.
