About Your Hosts
Aisling and Margaret Cunningham are the inspiring sisters behind Lula, a business born out of their shared battle with breast cancer. Diagnosed just six weeks apart, they leaned on each other through their treatments, taking turns to care for one another and their families. During this challenging time, they began developing Lula Eye Mask, Australia’s first self-warming eye mask.
During this challenging time, they developed Lula Eye Mask, Australia’s first self-warming eye mask, to help others pause and practice self-care. Today, Aisling and Margaret have expanded their wellness range, driven by a passion for creating moments of calm amid daily chaos.
"It means so much to us to create a supportive space where those touched by cancer, like we have, can connect, share, and find strength together. During our own experiences with breast cancer, we truly needed these tools, and we hope everyone leaves feeling rejuvenated, empowered, and equipped to nurture their mindset and well-being."
