Summary
In this episode I talk to entrepreneur, lifestyle personality, writer, speaker, and wellness expert Chinae Alexander about how she leveraged her lows to get to where she is today, how going through hard things actually allows us to empathize and help others, and how struggles are what guide our lives. We also talk about her passion for fitness and how she was most unhappy at her fittest. Chinae talks about having a business on instagram, building an audience and being vulnerable with them, and we close it out by talking about finding "the one."
