To start I just wanted to share that I have started to do that a year ago
It came out of burn out and wanting to share people's inspiration for their job.
And it went a bit around.
Thank you Alexi , for taking this time with me. And the first question I have for you
comes from when I was little, I was always asking myself what it is to be someone else's head, life.
But if you could answer that question and get to present yourself through that it would be amazing.
So what would it be, what is it like to live in my world?
Mmmm. Great question. What's it like living in my world?
Well my world currently my world is filled with baby giggles, smiles and
transformation, and I get to meet beautiful people from all over the world
and I feel my heart cracks open a little bit more every single day,
just really insanely grateful right now, like I'm just feeling so abundant and full and overflowing in my life.
So my world, my world view is pretty beautiful.
And after this weekend, Extreme Leadership, Bridge Experience,
I mean, you have seen how impacted we are. You are doing something that is just amazing
And, do you really feel how you impact the world in an incredible way. What do you feel about that? It's just...
Yeah, honestly you know when I'm in these rooms which is why I love doing live
workshops so much more than doing online work because it's so tangible and it's
so real and it's so like I can put my hands on I can see it I can put a story
to somebody's face. And, I think in today's world where a lot of our work is digital,
especially impressive in my work it's very digital, we see their face on their
profile but we don't know their story we don't know their context we don't know
how they show up we don't know what they're going through and well it's
still beautiful and I love the work that I get to do online because the impact
you know I can affect millions of lives all over the globe and I don't have to travel anywhere but
this work even if it's ten people in a room or you know a thousand people in a room
I love this even more because it's like I can taste it and it makes it so
much more real for me. More personal, faces. Yeah.
I have a question regarding so the work you do, what's the vision, long term vision you have for the world?
Hum, you know it's interesting I think if... If I were to have answered this question
five years ago I would have said that the world change and be different and
all of these different nuances. Now my vision for the world is that the world
just wakes up to what they already are, because I believe that we already are
love, we already are light, we already are human beings that are connected and have
empathy and compassion but we've built ups massive walls and those walls have
created war and those wars have created hardship and those hardships have
created pain and lineages of pain and suffering and so I don't necessarily
think we have to change I think we just have to become more who we have always been
And, how would you like to be remembered? What would you like to be remembered for?
Mmmm. My heart.
Big like (gesture).Yeah.
Just available which is a huge thing for me because I think, again in the past,
I would've answered that very differently and said my accomplishments and doing XYZ
and affecting this many lives and no it's how I can
affect somebody with my presence and how they can affect me in my presence
and I think that's my heart, if my heart is open for giving and for receiving
and I think that's enough.
And I guess your heart is getting even bigger now that you have your amazing Kingston.
He like makes me wanna cry all the time. I love him so much. He is so beautiful. Yeah.
Baby has changed the game for me, like OMG, my heart literally is exploding every single day.
And through your path, what do you want to teach him?
How do you want, I guess you want to give all of you to him, but if you could share what is the most important
or some things that are really important for you to teach him and to have him getting it into his cells I would say.
Yeah I think the biggest thing is I want to remind myself that I'm a vessel for
his learning and not that I am imprinting him with my way of how he should live the world.
So it's really I want to teach him to be a stand for his self and to be in
the discovery of life and of himself in this life and to be in the query of what that means
to be Kingston you know and I think in our world were so quick to
label and say you're this type of person oh you should do this because you're that
and I want him to just always be in the quest of what it means to be him
Always discovering new parts of ourselves, it's infinite.
It is and I think that's the work that I'm up to in these rooms is reminding people
to do that because I had to remind myself to do that so if I can just start him off that way
then maybe he won't have to remind himself.
I discussed with Preston that I was doing this meditation with Deepak Chopra and Oprah Winfrey
and they talk about birth right and that really triggers me
and, because I thought a lot about equality and I would say it is a big subject for me.
Could you tell what does birth right mean to you and the relation to equality too?
Yeah, interesting. Birth right to me is you have the right to be human
and human comes with a whole bunch of stuff!
Human comes with ups and downs, and joy and pain,
and misery and brilliance, and bliss and tears.
Human it's all of it and I think in the personal development space nowadays we try
and override the darker side of humanity and say oh what we need to escape that or,
it's your birth right to be happy and joyous and yeah it is
but it's also your birth right to experience pain and to experience loss
and to experience death and betrayed and all of the things that make
humanity humanity. Because then joy wouldn't exist without pain, then bliss wouldn't exist without tears
and I think we forget that contrast is needed. So birth right to me is just all about
you have the right to be human that comes with a whole bunch of stuff.
Yeah. Because I had years where I felt I was stuck, the world being so tough for my sensitivity.
What advice could you give to people like that are very very sensitive to the dark side of the world
like the pain that we can feel because I really have this impression that it's preventing us from
owning ourselves because we have this protection to put around us in order to just kind of survive. Totally.
Yeah, and I consider myself deeply empathetic so I feel a lot,
you know, a lot of the work I do in here is energy work that's not vocal but it's under the surface
and for a long time it was debilitating for me to walk in the world
but what supported me was becoming a part of the solution instead of worrying and
pontificating about the problem because the more I thought about the problem the more heavier it got
and like I got paralyzed by the pain versus the minute I became a part of the solution
I was able to be proactive and I felt like it was shifting because I was shifting within it.
So that really helped me. It was just okay, if it hurts you move towards something to make it better, to make it different.
More regarding people that you would like to have around you,
if you could invite 4 people to a diner with you...
I never know how to get to the question! Preston and I play this game all the time and I'm like...mmm...
Okay so if I had to pick, I would pick Oprah because she is a boss.
Like she is such a boss. She's created a way out of no way,
She is the perfect example of like coming from nothing and building everything
and doing it her so much purpose and intention I'd invite her
because I would just want to like be in her essence and learn from her wisdom
even just if she said nothing. Just be around. Exactly.The energy that she brings. OMG!
She is doing the cover of a magazine, Vogue I think. And I as like : Woo.
She is amazing, amazing.
and then I think I would invite Jim Carrey because he's like a hero of mine
it's like he's always been her of mine since I was a kid but especially now he's like so...
his depth and his ability to not give a fuck what people think right now
because he's helding celebrity and like he is what he's like "So What?"
like " So What? You think I'm crazy?", "And?" like so what what if nothing doesn't mean anything.
So I love where he's at right now, I love to pick his brain, and then
he is just hilarious, I just love him. Mmmm two more people.
I would invite Preston because he's my husband but also because he asks really good questions.
So I feel like well I would kind of be more listening and receiving
he would be digging in and asking really personal questions.
Like he's someone that I'd like to have around, plus it would be awesome to share that experience with him
and be oh my God, did you here what she says, it's crazy...
So him and then, one more...
I would say my great-grandmother.
Because I never knew her like I knew her, she died when I was maybe like 2 years old
but I never knew her and she came from Greece and like she was so old country
and like she is a tiny little woman who, you know, raised eight kids came on the boat twice to America
and she's just like there's something about her that I feel like is in me,
but I don't know what it is because I don't know her well enough
so I would like to explore her.
And if you could finish my sentence : God is...
Dot, dot, dot.
And Love is...
Dot, dot, dot.
Whatever we say it is.
Right and I feel like it changes everything single moment for me. Sometimes God is the tree that I'm sitting under,
sometimes God is you. You know it's like da, da, da... we'll see! Thank you.
As a way to end I would like to share these videos with people that are trying to reconnect to themselves
to give them themselves the chance to live the life that actually means something to them.
Amazing. And if you have any advice for them as a way to end this interview it would be amazing. Yeah...
My best advice for anyone on the journey is
trust that you're exactly where you're supposed to be. Like, really.
I think when we're stuck we often beat up where we're at.
Why am I here? I'm supposed to be there. And I remind people...
No... You're exactly where you're supposed to be and
there is a lesson for you in this now moment that until you get that lesson
you're not going to move forward. So be available for what life is trying to teach you.
And then, welcome it with a smile and keep on moving.
And then magic happens! It does.
It's like the minute you just stop resisting reality and just say okay here's what's here,
what's here for me. Oh that's what's here for me.
Great let me try that on and then I'll move.
Then life goes : Okay! You got it, great.
Now we can move from this chapter. Turn the page.
Thank you so much. Bye, bye.
