  • Summary

  • Hi! I’m Alexa Jo, but you may hear me called Alexa, Lex, Jojo, or Joj on the show.

    I founded Lila by Alexa Jo, home to a blog, community, events, and now a podcast.

    Lila is defined as: "a wholehearted contentedness upon the recognition that every happenstance in one’s life thus far has led this this very moment, in this very place, with these very people."

    I wrote a whole piece about why I chose “Lila” that you can find on my blog.

    Each week I’m joined by a different guest to talk about all kinds of topics. This started as I was interviewing cool people I met while traveling, but then I thought about how my people back home had a lot of important things to say too. Now, It's much more. From solo travel, to mental health, to social causes, to the meaning of life…we’re tackling it all.

    I dream of building a community, writing a couple novels, lifting-up others, and talking about real-life sh*t.

    Need some company, a belly laugh, or a hand to hold? Listen to Lila.

    21: Creating a new life for yourself - with Sara
    Jul 10 2024

    This week I'm joined by my friend Sara Isaac on the Big Island of Hawaii! Sara is a free spirit who moved to the island after heartbreak a few years ago. She shares stories of odd work exchanges she agreed to, bad living situations, and what it was like to immigrate from Iraq to Michigan as a kid.

    Sara adopts the "work to live, don't live to work" mentality and spends a lot of her time pouring into her hobbies of upcycling clothes, making jewelry, and exploring the nature of Hawaii. She is so sweet and fun and has truly mastered the resilience of creating a new life for yourself.
