#262: Maria Alexa is an independent singer-songwriter, & producer based in New York City. Her first memory of music stems from childhood, playing 90s pop songs on her toy piano for her dad, memorizing lyrics from Britney Spears to Andrea Bocelli. Maria worked hard to make music a reality, pushing herself beyond limits from choir, all state, all county, piano lessons, vocal lessons, guitar lessons and then in college, Maria continued her love for harmonies in acapella groups where she discovered the magic of performing.

After graduation, life felt unfulfilled until she wrote her first song--the journaling and the poetry she’d been writing for years turned into raw & emotional melodies. Combined with an incredible support system, multi-talented producer & the belief that anything was possible, her music career truly took flight and the songs poured out of her like water.

Topics:

• Knowing when to leave a comfortable relationship that is no longer aligned
• Reframing the mindset around pursuing a career in a "difficult" and saturated industry
• Benefits of therapy, individually and in your relationship
• Understanding your root desire of how you want to impact the world and finding job roles that enable you to do this

#260: Everyone in their 20s will face the natural highs and lows of figuring out their career path at some point. Sometimes, one person gets a nice start right out of college, but then needs to pivot mid-20s. Sometimes, it's vice versa.

One thing Emily noticed while she was in college is that people in their early to mid-20s are not often guided with proper questions to ask themselves in order to figure out the career direction.

Early to mid-20s is the perfect age to try all kinds of opportunities and narrow down types of work that make you feel fulfilled and align with your personal visions and goals.

If you're near the end of college or graduated somewhere in the recent years and looking for insights to navigate your career journey, you won't want to miss this episode.

Topics discussed:

• Figuring out whether money OR comfort/less stress matters more at your current stage
• Major questions to ask yourself in the process of figuring out what you want to do in your career journey
• What Emily would personally do if she was still in college right now
• Relevance of job experiences, even if you think you want to be a freelancer or have your own business down the road

#258: On this episode, Emily Elizabeth goes solo and shares her personal approach in how she sets goals and intentions for each year, but most importantly, how she's turned previous visions into a reality. Emily started this approach when she was 24-years old living in Los Angeles and hungry to leave her corporate sales job to work full-time in her own business.

2.5 years later, she is living out the vision she wrote down. From moving to NYC, having an apartment with a view, traveling and working on-the-go, scaling her social media agency to over 10K/month, meeting a long-term romantic partner, and more.

Topics discussed:

• Importance of personal vision before goals
• How to create a realistic personal vision to work towards (not just a cute vision board on Pinterest)
• The reason why you feel a little bit "lost" right now, especially if you're in your mid-20s
• Types of goals that actually move the needle forward in your progress
