Hello, howdy, hi there!
My name is Kaylen (K. Alexandra) and you can consider me your virtual tour guide through the wild terrain of my life while I learn how to leverage emotional intelligence.
As a recovering people-pleaser, certified Mindfulness Coach, wife, mother, non-profit employee, spiritual seeker, and hurried coffee-consuming homebody- finding time for myself is extinct rare. For people-pleasers, self-care is seen as sel-fish.
I'm here to tell myself (and you) through my stories that I am worthy. I have recently retired my tutorial voice after realizing that everyone kind enough to gather here comes from a different life experience than my own that I couldn’t possibly have all the answers for. That being said if you happen to see yourself in my stories, if you feel seen in my people-pleasing ways, in my battle against myself, welcome.
Practicing each of the four pillars of emotional intelligence (AKA: self-compassion) leads to self-acceptance.
Having self-acceptance means breaking the pattern of self-loathing.
Yes- I re-he-he-eally went there!
I find that when I hate myself, (like when I am entering the freeway before realizing that I have been driving on fumes), there is no room for growth. Zero betterment - because I don’t believe that I am worth the trouble.
Society got to me, darling. It's okay. I’m chipping away at the Arctic Tundra, which has become my heart, with the help of EQ.
Here I will share recipes to my personal inner and outer PEACE. Disclaimer: I am a terrible cook.
Please subscribe to my weekly newsletter and feel the gratitude of a lifelong people-pleaser for validating her mission to live life on her own terms (JK I am still in recovery).
Xx,
K. Alexandra
