• How we can get to know our true soul by extending our vulnerability out every day and taking the risk of getting real and unmasked often.
• Ideas on the nuance of what spiritual growth actually is and how to check in for yourself on where you are overly comfortable and where you are actually stretching open and expanding.
• How the “how” and “why” of what we do may be more important than the “what” of what we do in this life, and what that means for our daily mindset.
• The difference between your personality and your deep soul depths, and the path to discovering your depths in life.
• And more!

Her book “F*CK LIKE A GODDESS” debuted in July 2020 with Sounds True to be #1 new release and bestseller in 3 categories on amazon for 3 weeks in a row. It was also featured in many publications as a radical guidebook for modern spirituality outside the mainstream and a practical guide to healing that includes body, mind, and spirit.  

With a career traversing genres, but with a through line of exploration of the female body and the intersection of sexuality and spirituality, Alexandra has been making art, writing, and sharing her heart publicly for nearly two decades about modern spirituality, the feminine faces of the divine, embodiment as healing and practice, and the path of the expression of the soul through art and writing as liberation.

During this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why it’s important to use discernment about what teachings, art, wisdom, and influences to allow into your life in this modern, digital age.
• How spiritual sacred space is relative to each person’s unique life experience and is not a cookie-cutter formula that fits everyone.
• How the mystical life is vast, and includes both the sacred and the profane.
• How to be a more nuanced spiritual practitioner and experience life more robustly, rather than just “good” vs. “bad”.
• How we are spiritual, emotional, physical, and psychological beings and not just one element of being.
• Why it’s important to bring all sorts of people, stories, and paths of living to the “spiritual” conversation.
• And more!
