Lilit Avakian
archiver, mentor, artist
-
I was born to Armenian immigrants in the deep south of Louisiana. At age 9, I found myself relocated to Chicago where I spent my teenage years. After moving out at 17, I acclimated myself to life as a solo woman on the road.
My love for exploring the road less traveled has gifted me a creative edge in the way I mentor, facilitate, and document my story.
My deepest gift is in sharing resources to support a birds eye view way of living. I support my clients in simplifying their lives, so they can truly know what it feels like to be present.
I do this through facilitating creative workshops, sharing nervous system regulation techniques, hosting seasonal group containers, mentoring 1:1 through philosophical synthesis, and developing hands on cultural research on human dynamics.

Inside my monthly membership, The Living Archive, is an invitation to consume more intentionally.
Where can we gain deeper insights through exposure to new cultures, unknown places, and lost traditions?
I deliver information slowly, on purpose. An affordable way to receive nudges, reflection points, and fresh perspectives each month.
Enter here!
As an Armenian artist, I aim to investigate the essence of unspoken human relation through movement, poetry, land, and sensational exploration.
With support from my collection of living archives, I develop works that embody philosophical, sociological, and psychological findings of a diaspora woman on the road.
The unity of research, contemplation, and sensation actively guides the way I process my representations of the unspoken, natural intelligence within, and it’s relation to historical and contemporary expressions.

Together, we explore deep, diaphragmatic breathing at a pace that feels comfortable, safe, and explorative.
Perfect for those who struggle with sleep, low energy, high cortisol levels, and muscular discomforts.

“Having Lilit as a coach has been a true joy and a transformative experience. I love how she incorporates movement, dance, visualization exercises for grounding and reflections. Her insights and guidance have helped shape me as a coach, activating ideas, creativity, and self trust in me.
Motivating me to push forward with my ideas and goals in becoming a healing arts facilitator. Lilit is brilliant, poetic, artsy, and intuitive with her approach for transformational healing. I highly recommend Lilit for anyone looking to activate creativity, healing, and inspired change!”
Naela | 1:1 resourcing client
I was raised in Houma, Louisiana, a town one hour South of New Orleans. My parents were just 17 and 19 when they found out they were expecting and traveled to start a life in America.
Every meal was a feast, every conversation was 10x louder than normal, 24/7 facetime calls to over seas relatives, and a blend of Armenian and Russian language I could never quite fully grasp. Through research and artistic expression, I have grown to deeply appreciate the uncaptured beauty of Home. The Living Archive is for those with wandering questions, curiosities around their roots, and those craving a gentle nudge towards using art as a vessel to connect with their genius.
