We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Alexa Burton a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alexa, appreciate you joining us today. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?
I want women to join me on a journey towards empowerment and self-love through makeup and curvy fashion tips while being inclusive and genuine with my content!
As someone who has personally struggled with self-confidence, I know how hard it can be to feel beautiful and worthy. But I’ve also experienced firsthand the amazing transformation that comes with embracing your own beauty and celebrating your curves.
That’s why I’ve made it my mission to empower women with beauty and fashion tips, as well as honest reviews of products that can help you feel your best. Whether you’re curvy or not, I believe that every woman deserves to feel confident and beautiful in her own skin.
I like to celebrate curves and beauty in all shapes and sizes, and help you feel truly empowered whenever you look in the mirror.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
The journey began with my own personal struggle to find stylish and comfortable clothing options that truly embraced my curves.
It all changed when I discovered the empowering world of body positivity and curvy fashion. There was no turning back! I started sharing my experiences and tips, which led me to connect with an incredible community of curvy women who inspired me to help others feel beautiful and confident.
Now I’m a proud advocate and social media influencer in the curvy fashion and beauty industry, promoting self-love and celebrating all body types’
Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
I remember when I used to obsess over every little detail in my photos, trying to hide my so-called imperfections. I had to unlearn that habit and embrace my true self!
Two years ago, I began my journey of self-love, ditching major editing and learning not to worry about other people’s opinions. And guess what? My confidence has sky-rocketed!
Now, I show up authentically and genuinely, unapologetically being me. After I took the first steps towards embracing my uniqueness I never looked back!
Are there any books, videos, essays or other resources that have significantly impacted your management and entrepreneurial thinking and philosophy?
A book that transformed the way I interact with others? “How To Win Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie. It’s filled with amazing tips to build genuine relationships and influence effectively, online and in person. This book has helped me build genuine connections and a wonderful community that grows everyday! A must read!
