062: Self Compassion, Body Confidence, & Not Feeling Like Every Other Blogger

Alex Michael May is a self- and body-positive influencer who is gracing us with an incredible show about loving yourself all while running a successful influence.

And my favorite part about Alex? She’s seen incredible growth over the past couple years by doing one thing: being her authentic self.

In today’s episode, Alex shares how she’s overcome playing small, learned to love herself, and built a successful influence even when she didn’t feel like a “typical” blogger. We also go into the motivational books that have changed her life and the mindset strategy she relies on daily. She also touches on being deemed a “body-positive influencer.”

Business wise, Alex shares why not making a long-term strategy is a huge mistake and how to work with brands without alienating your audience.

Such a great show for anyone who has ever struggled with fitting in, being heard, and loving yourself (so probably all of us right??)!
