She teaches workshops and retreats that assist others in finding their voices through storytelling, poetry, and narrative writing rooted in truth without shame. Today’s guest is here to show us how to heal, after the rain.Īlexandra Elle is an author and wellness consultant who found healing through journaling. It’s also time to learn how to heal from within and lean into the power that you are your own validation. It’s time to detach our identity from others and discover our own self-worth. Placing limiting beliefs on themselves and refusing to claim their power, I’ve watched purpose driven women use fear from past hurts to prevent them from walking into what they’re truly purposed to do. I’ve met so many Purpose Chasers who have accepted the choices and opinions of others as validation regarding how they live their lives.

How many times have you allowed validation from others to determine your self-worth? How many times have your decisions been based on what someone else thought was best for you?
