nice to meet you, i'm alexis.
When people ask me what I do for a living, I glitch a little.
Do they know what content creation is? Is this a good time to joyfully infodump about my many obsessions, like the neuroscience of energy budgeting, or decolonized perspectives in somatic and positive psychology? Should I just tell them I’m a writer? I did write a book, after all. Wait, am I taking too long to come up with an answer? Umm, uhh...
“I’m a psychology-focused career coach and writer,” I typically blurt out.
Ah, the beauty of being a multi-hyphenate in the modern economy: Every meeting is a mental calculation in ‘okay but how weird can I be in this particular social interaction?'
→ If you feel like a walking contradiction, welcome.
→ If your life feels too complicated to summarize in small talk, welcome.
→ If you get bored easily, question your capacity to follow through on things, and swing back and forth between craving big change and rooted stability, welcome.
Welcome to our little corner of the internet, fellow weirdo! 🙃

welcome to our corner of the internet.
Do you feel like a walking contradiction? Welcome!
Does your life feel too complicated to summarize in small talk? Welcome!
Do you get bored easily, question your capacity to follow through on things, and swing back and forth between craving big change and rooted stability? Welcome!
Are you out here trying to figure out to feel alive while you are alive? Welcome!
now let's figure out how to merge being your 🙃 weirdest, freest self with the reality of existing under 🛠 late-stage capitalism, shall we?
