Lorraine Mathias: Reinventing herself with grace, purpose, and a heart devoted to uplifting others

Lorraine Mathias is a woman who embodies reinvention, resilience, and purpose. From a successful corporate journey spanning three decades to becoming a philanthropist, model, empowerment advocate, and social changemaker, her story reflects the power of evolving with life’s seasons. Live Wabi Sabi features Lorraine because her journey shows women everywhere that confidence can be built, purpose can be rediscovered, and it is never too late to step into your fullest self.

Her Wabi Sabi Life Story

Lorraine describes herself as a “wonder woman constantly reinventing herself.” After more than 30 years in a multinational organization, she redirected her energy toward social causes, working to uplift abandoned women and underprivileged children. Once shy and introverted as a child, life’s circumstances gradually shaped her into the confident, assertive woman she is today. She credits the Women’s Commission of the Archdiocese of Bombay for playing a pivotal role in this transformation.

Today, Lorraine wears many hats, philanthropist, supermodel, travel consultant, women’s empowerment coach, and brand ambassador for travel organizations. She has been honoured with titles such as Queen Empress–Cordelia Cruises, Style Icon of India, Woman of Substance, and several personality awards celebrating her confidence and charm. She has also graced the covers of magazines like Perfect Woman, FemineHer, Womaniean, and Glorious, while being featured in Mid-Day, Personalities of India, Global Divas, and JJ Crowns.

Her mission continues to expand: she passionately advocates for organ donation awareness and dreams of establishing a vocational training centre to empower economically disadvantaged women.

Her Thoughts on Self-Love

For Lorraine, self-love is an everyday practice of growth and joy. She believes in improving herself continuously, learning to play the keyboard, dancing, practicing power yoga, and travelling with friends to explore new destinations. To her, self-love means living fully, staying curious, and allowing space for both discipline and delight.

Her Proudest Moment

Lorraine feels proud of many milestones, winning the Queen Empress title, being named Style Icon of India, and being featured in Personalities of India. Yet what truly moves her is when people say she inspires them or consider her a role model. For her, impact matters more than accolades.

Being Part of Live Wabi Sabi Stories

Lorraine feels honoured to be associated with a platform that celebrates authentic journeys. She hopes her story reaches many people through Live Wabi Sabi so she can inspire others, especially future generations, to believe in their potential.

Her Biggest Cheerleader

Lorraine’s greatest inspiration is her late mother, Antoinette Mathias. She credits her mother’s discipline, ambition, resilience, and dedication to social service as the foundation of who she is today. Her mother’s values continue to guide her path.

Her Message to Other Women

Lorraine encourages everyone to stay assertive and positive, love themselves deeply, pursue what makes them happy, and never stop learning. She believes financial independence and gratitude are powerful tools for a fulfilling life, and she recommends keeping a gratitude journal to stay grounded in blessings.

Be positive, keep learning, stay grateful, and live life fully, your journey is your strength ~ Lorraine Mathias
