It's been exactly one month since I self-published my Poetry book, SEASONS, and it's been quite a journey.

I figure now is a good time to check in and reflect on the experience, considering that May was Mental Health Awareness Month, and I have been very aware of mental health on this journey 😂

In this episode of The Alex Nye Show....

Wait. What do writing a book, being overly reflective, and healing from toxic relationships all have in common?

Me. Because I'm writing a book, am overly reflective, and had to heal from toxic and narcissistic abuse in order to use my voice and express myself creatively.

Here's some of what I talk about:

-I'm in LA. But why?

-The poetry book I'm releasing. I even share the release date!!!!!!

-Abuse in the workplace

-Somatic recalibration

In this episode of The Alex Nye Show, I reflect on identity and labels. Labels are immensely helpful in understanding ourselves and the world around us, but what happens when they start to contain us and box us in?

Some ideas I explore include:

-What is identity?

-How do we use identity in the real world?

-Why are labels helpful?

-When do labels turn into a cage?

-What can we do to shift to a new label?
