Listen Later

On this episode of the Customers First Podcast, I engage in an insightful conversation with Alexis Boyett, a dynamic entrepreneur whose career encompasses modelling, acting, and immersive experience design. As the founder of Company with Character and The Bippity Platform, Alexis embodies a vision rooted in connection, creativity, and empowerment, guiding individuals to forge deeper connections with themselves and one another. Our dialogue traverses her unique journey, starting from her early days in Los Angeles, where she sought validation through modelling and acting after overcoming past bullying experiences. 

 

Alexis shares the transformative moment she realized the importance of authenticity while on set with A-list celebrities. Her engaging anecdotes showcase that even those in the limelight experience vulnerability and awkwardness, making them beautifully human. As she delves into the pivotal shift from pursuing fame to recognizing her true impact through character entertainment, Alexis highlights her discovery of professional princessing – an avenue that not only reignited her passion for performance but also instilled her with the profound realization of how storytelling can significantly shape children's lives. 

 

Taking her experience to the next level, Alexis founded her nationwide company focused on character entertainment, integrating anti-bullying messages into her performances. However, the onset of the pandemic prompted her to reassess her path. After selling her company to her performers, she launched Bippity, the first business and personal development platform aimed at character entertainers. We explore her passion for bringing character entertainment into corporate spaces, as she introduces innovative offerings like the Holiday Cheer Calendar that evoke joy and creativity among teams.

 

We also discuss the nuances of entrepreneurship, particularly the challenges creative individuals often face in distinguishing their business from their own personal value. Alexis emphasizes the importance of viewing business as a creative expression rather than an extension of self-worth, allowing for growth and innovation without emotional entanglements. Through this lens, she offers poignant insights into maintaining alignment with one’s values while navigating the complexities of building a sustainable business.

 

The culmination of our conversation reveals the essence of her work, encouraging individuals to embrace their authenticity and diminish the fear of failure. In closing, Alexis leaves us with a powerful reminder of the importance of making magic and believing in one’s unique light. This episode is a deeper exploration of how creative entrepreneurship and personal authenticity can intersect, creating opportunities for connection and growth in both personal and professional spheres.
