Meet Whitney Johnson of Bella Lucy Spa

Where do I start? Whitney Johnson is someone to look out for. In 2024, she made a powerful decision—one that would change lives. She stepped into the role of an Autism Advocate, focusing on self-care for special needs moms—a group that often forgets to prioritize themselves due to the relentless demands of caregiving and the lack of resources available.

Understanding firsthand the unique struggles of motherhood within the autism community, Whitney is on a mission to remind caregivers that taking care of themselves is not a luxury, but a necessity. Through her work, she’s proving that self-care is not an act of selfishness—it’s an act of survival.

Whitney’s passion for self-care advocacy didn’t just emerge from a business plan—it was born from her own life experience. As a devoted mother of an autistic child, she knows the exhaustion, the sacrifices, the emotional toll that come with caregiving. The sleepless nights, the constant advocacy, the weight of ensuring her child has everything they need—it’s a labor of love, but it’s also draining.

For years, she put herself last, believing that was the only way to be a good mother. But then, she had a revelation: Neglecting herself wasn’t making her a better mom it was making her an exhausted, depleted one.

The turning point came when she chose herself. Instead of believing that self-care was indulgent, she embraced the truth: A well-rested, confident, and cared-for mother is the best mother she can be. This realization fueled her passion to help other caregivers find the balance between loving their families and loving themselves.

Bella Lucy will be a franchise brand - Whitney Johnson

With a vision rooted in both science and soul, Whitney created The Bella Lucy Spa, a space where self-care meets healing, both inside and out. More than just a skincare studio, The Bella Lucy Spa is a sanctuary—a place where moms and caregivers can exhale, recharge, and reconnect with themselves.

Her expertise as an esthetician and skin healer allows her to provide customized skincare treatments that do more than just enhance beauty—they restore confidence and well-being. Whether it's healing skin concerns, offering relaxing facials, or simply providing a moment of peace, Whitney ensures that every woman who walks through her doors feels seen, valued, and rejuvenated.

But her work doesn’t stop at skincare. Whitney infuses her practice with emotional wellness, helping women release stress, embrace self-love, and find balance in their lives. Through her heartfelt advocacy for the autism community, she has created a supportive space where caregivers are reminded that their needs matter too.

Whitney’s impact extends far beyond her spa. She is building a community of women who are learning to choose themselves again—without guilt, without apology. She understands that when mothers feel their best, they show up as their best selves for their children, their families, and their communities.

Her work is transformational—not just for the skin, but for the soul. And in 2024, as she steps fully into her role as an Autism Advocate, she is proving that self-care is the foundation of resilience.

Through her unparalleled expertise, compassion, and commitment, Whitney Johnson is not just redefining skincare—she’s redefining what it means to truly care for yourself. And in doing so, she is changing lives, one mother at a time.
