We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Alexandria Smith a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Alexandria, appreciate you joining us today. What’s the backstory behind how you came up with the idea for your business?
The idea for Mom, Wife, Worship Life stemmed from my own profound journey as a mother and wife navigating the complexities of living with a chronic mental illness. Balancing these roles while prioritizing my mental wellness has been a challenging yet transformative experience. Through personal growth and the support of my husband, I discovered a newfound joy in embracing both motherhood and marriage. This journey of self-discovery and resilience ignited a desire within me to share my story with others, believing that by shining a light on the possibility of thriving, rather than merely surviving, in these roles, others could find inspiration and hope in their own lives.
I knew this concept would resonate because there is a scarcity of open dialogue surrounding mental wellness within the context of motherhood and marriage. By sharing my journey and advocating for holistic well-being, I aimed to fill this gap and offer a unique perspective on finding fulfillment amidst life’s challenges. Through Mom, Wife, Worship Life, I am not only offering a solution to an underserved need but also highlighting the joy and fulfillment that can be found in achieving balance and thriving in these vital roles. This idea excites me because I have personally witnessed the transformative power of overcoming mental health struggles and achieving harmony in life, and I am eager to inspire others to do the same.
Alexandria, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

Any advice for managing a team?
My advice for managing a team and maintaining high morale is deeply rooted in the golden rule of the Bible: treating others as I would like to be treated. I prioritize ensuring that my team members feel appreciated and valued by expressing gratitude for their contributions and recognizing their dedication to our company’s growth. Additionally, I strive to be sensitive and empathetic to any issues they may be facing outside of work that could impact their performance, such as family matters or personal challenges.
Having experienced the importance of empathy firsthand, especially when dealing with my own health issues, I make it a priority to create a supportive work environment where team members feel understood and supported. Leading by example is crucial in demonstrating positivity, resilience, and a strong work ethic. I believe in the power of rewards and recognition for a job well done, regardless of its size, as it fosters a culture of appreciation and motivation within the team.
Any thoughts, advice, or strategies you can share for fostering brand loyalty?
Maintaining strong connections with clients and fostering brand loyalty is paramount to the success of any business.
