Chinae Alexander—How To Cultivate Self-Confidence, Pursue Your Passion & Find Inspiration In Everyday Life

Chinae Alexander (@chinaealexander) has long been one of my favorite inspirational accounts to follow on Instagram (she also has an amazing podcast, called Press Send). She’s incredibly honest, with unapologetic pictures of things like crotch sweat and arm fat, and insightful, with an ability to find the story and wisdom in everything from an interaction with an Uber driver to her unique Texas upbringing. This conversation represents some of my favorite elements of the Healthier Together podcast—a casual, frank conversation about everything from religion to anxiety to weight loss to pursuing your passion and how that should fit in with earning money. I also grilled Chinae about where she gets her incredible self-confidence, and came away with insights that have changed my life since.

Enjoy!
