Hi, I’m Alexa — small-town raised, city-tested, and built bold.
I grew up with the kind of roadmap they hand every small-town girl: do well in school, find good friends, go to college, get married. Well… I followed the plan. Sort of.
I went to college and earned a degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders, fully expecting grad school to be the next chapter. But life, or maybe God, had other plans — and let’s be honest, I think He had a good laugh about mine.
With two options in front of me — give up on my degree or move across the country — I packed my things and moved to Houston, Texas. I didn’t know a soul. I hadn’t even driven in a big city. But I went all in. I started with a mattress on the floor and a fire in my chest. I built a life from scratch, found my tribe, and grew into someone I didn’t even know I could be.
At 28, I hit a ceiling in my field. My people knew I had more in me, and deep down, I did too. I left the only city I’d ever truly loved and moved to Florida to start over — again. I’ve never regretted the leap.
I’ve always had big dreams — even in high school I said I wanted to study international business so I could travel. Funny enough, I found a different path that lets me do just that. These days, I’m racking up airline miles and experience thanks to a job that lets me see the country on the company’s dime.
I’ve built a life through grit, reinvention, and a relentless refusal to settle. I’ve started over more than once. I’ve learned to trust my gut. I’ve learned that the life you imagine and the life you earn might look totally different — but be exactly what you needed.
WhiskeyFitLifestyle is my next leap. A place for women like me — strong, evolving, and unafraid to rewrite their story.
Let’s live boldly, take the shot, and toast to the chaos. 🥃
