So good!

Alex is like an excited baby bird ready to listen and learn from qualified people in all different walks of life and I am here for it. Her top notch interviewing skills only make it that much better.

What?!?!

What did I just listen to? Alex just stroking her friends ego. Super annoying, and not really sure of the point. I though it was just show opening pleasantries and the next thing I know I’m over half way through the show and getting no real content. No helpful information. No advice to entrepreneurs. Just oh my gosh your such a great boss!!! Lol WHAT IS THE POINT? WHAT AM I MISSING? Alex you tried... but failed.

Yesss!

These are the conversations we NEED to be having in 2019. Thank you for using your platform to empower and uplift with a large dose of real raw humor. You’re a gem Alex!
