About Lilo

Cathyrine “Lilo” Armandie is the host of Lies My Ego Told Me, a podcast at the intersection of leadership, mental health, and personal growth. A 20-year Air Force veteran and combat aviator, she brings a rare perspective shaped by years in high-stakes aviation, international relations, and strategy development combined with the lived experience of navigating trauma, resilience, and motherhood. Her interviews uncover the hidden “ego lies” that hold leaders back, from imposter syndrome to burnout, addiction, and identity, offering listeners both empathy and practical insight.

What makes Lilo unique as a host is her ability to bridge worlds. Military and civilian, professional and personal, high performance and human vulnerability. She’s as comfortable dissecting leadership in the cockpit as she is talking about the invisible weight carried by mothers, entrepreneurs, and executives. Through powerful storytelling, she creates space for guests and audiences alike to confront the truths beneath success, redefine what thriving looks like, and reclaim their authentic voice.
