About Her

IMG_6422.JPG
 

Hi, I’m Lexi!

Welcome to my corner of the world! I am a content designer, women’s health activist, caretaker, athlete, mountaineer, marketer, and cat-lady with a passion for pushing the limits and embracing the journey of personal growth.

My career has spanned the restaurant industry (including dishwasher at Thumper Pond, sauté chef at Olive Garden, and bartender at World Famous Dark Horse), healthcare (senior living and was a CNA on the Cardiac Unit or St. Luke’s), assistant wedding planner & social media manager at the fabulous Pure Events Planning & Design, and most recently social media manager for Will Day Art. These fabulous experiences have tested my skills in everything from major life events to the routine and intimate. This is where I've learned the art of connecting with people and creating memorable experiences.

What now? In the beginning of 2025, I started Podcast With Her to teach others how to start their own podcasts. In August, I graduated from CU with my Master’s degree. And now, as of November 2025, I’m working at MorningStar in senior living and on digital projects remotely.

I spend many hours in the mountains near my home in Boulder, CO, and am always keeping my eyes open for the next adventure. I have a tough time believing that good work has to be done from a desk. Life is so full of wonder; why should anyone be stuck in one place? So, that’s where you’ll find me. Always in awe of the world, rarely sitting still, and living the best life possible.

Cheers to all the possibility!

-Lexi

ACCEPTED!

My academic journey has led me to pursue a master’s degree in Strategic Communications Design at the College of Media, Communication & Information at CU Boulder.

It was 2017, and I just moved to Duluth, Minnesota a few months prior. I was walking down the hallway at my job - working as a CNA at St. Luke’s Cardiac Unit. I had my blue scrubs on and a laundry bag in my hand.

I realized I was whistling!

It came from this overwhelmingly good feeling. “THIS is why she whistles! She is happier, healthier, making friends! She is finally creating the life she wants beyond her hometown and high school!”

And that’s how this platform was born.

If you could wave a wand and the whole world had read one book, which would you choose?

“My choice would be The Art of Gathering, by Priya Parker. Within these pages, she has woven a masterclass on connecting intentionally and bringing people together with purpose.”

Which podcast has inspired you the most?

“Oh that’s a tough one. Can I choose 3?

I currently have On Purpose with Jay Shetty and The Healthier Together Podcast with Liz Moody on repeat.

But my longest podcast inspiration & basically my podcast Fairy Godmother was with Jenna Kutcher, host of from The Goal Digger Podcast.”
