This week’s episode is with a huge inspiration of mine, Chinae Alexander. Former Texan-turned-New Yorker, Chinae Alexander is an entrepreneur, lifestyle personality, writer, speaker, and wellness expert based in Brooklyn, New York. Her message is to empower people to be better through positive thinking, active change, self-love…with a lot of humor along the way. 

We Talk About:

  • Chinae shares how she got to the work she’s doing today
  • The crazy story of how an old boss pushed her into entrepreneurship
  • How Chinae took her instagram and turned it into a business
  • What it means to show up as yourself in your work
  • What authenticity means and what it means now that it’s more of “trend”
  • Why authenticity can’t be a strategy
  • Why truth will always resonate
  • We discuss how self love isn’t a trend, but a lifelong pursuit
  • The difference between vulnerability & floodlighting and why Chinae doesn’t really talk about her weightloss anymore
  • How to celebrate your wins with grace
  • The other side of vulnerability - celebrating what you’re great at
  • How to be confident with humility and grace
  • How to be truthful when talking about the great stuff and trusting that people will be there to win with you
  • What it’s like to live in New York City
  • Challenges of working for yourself and letting go of what you think your day will look like
  • The scary reality of loving the work you do
  • Being open to receive and let go and being more fluid with your plans
  • How to embrace opportunities without over planning your life
  • What it’s like to meet friends online
  • How to use these platforms to connect with people offline
  • How to understand and grapple with identity
  • Reacting when people put you in a narrow box with empathy
