The Real Story of Your Life – Weekly Newsletter from Alexandra

This is why you and I are celebrating Easter…

This Easter season, Reader, I’ve been sitting with a quiet question in my spirit:
What’s the real story of my life—not just what’s happening, but what’s really true underneath it all?
​
Lately, I’ve felt extra sensitive—longing to be seen, to be loved, to feel like I matter. Maybe you’ve been there too. I found myself caring too much about what others think, comparing myself, feeling like I wasn’t doing enough. Even in real estate—where I’ve been working hard and pursuing big opportunities—I caught myself measuring my worth by how well I was performing instead of who I am in God.
​
That’s when I knew, Reader: I needed a reset. A return.
​
So I got a massage. And while it helped relax my body, what I really needed was to reconnect with my soul. I had let my thoughts drift from God to the noise around me—from trust to striving. And I’ve learned that when we wander from God, our nervous system feels it. We lose our peace. We feel overwhelmed, disconnected, purposeless… even shallow.
​
But the good news—the real story—is that we’re never too far gone to come home.
​
That’s what Easter is all about.
​
​Good Friday reminds us of the pain, the waiting, and the cost.
​Silent Saturday represents the quiet in-between, when it feels like nothing is happening.
​Resurrection Sunday is the invitation to believe again—that there’s more than we imagined.
​
God’s love isn’t dependent on our success or anyone’s approval. It’s constant. It’s healing. It’s the only thing that truly satisfies.
​
So if you’re feeling disconnected, anxious, or like you’re just one of many, you're not that special—let this season remind you:
You’re known. You’re seen. You’re loved.
That’s the real story.

It’s a gentle reminder to reconnect—with God, with yourself, and with the truth that sets you free.

I help them connect with themselves, their creator and the endless possibilities that are available to them when they look for what ignites, research possibilities and take faithful decisive actions.

Comparison steals the moment. Love restores it. Lately , it’s felt like a bit of a roller coaster emotionally. Some days, I think maybe I just need to go back to therapy. And honestly? That might be true. I’m always working on myself—but I’m also learning to let God meet me right where I am. Because nothing is too much for Him. He doesn’t flinch at our emotions, our struggles, or even our confusion. In fact, He’s always guiding us—through it, not around it.Psalm 139 brings so much comfort to...

The patterns we don't see are the one that stay... Have you ever felt like you keep repeating the same patterns in your life, even though you’re trying so hard not to, Reader? That feeling of frustration—maybe even discouragement—can make you wonder if things will ever truly change. I know I’ve been there.When I got married, I had only been a Christian for a little over a year. I came into the relationship carrying a lot of emotional baggage—baggage I was aware of but didn’t know how to heal...

Learn to wait well with God... Hello my friend,Have you ever felt like the waiting would never end?Trusting God’s timing can be one of the hardest things we do as believers. It often feels like doors stay shut longer than they should, like promises are slow to unfold. Joseph in the Bible waited 13 years—thirteen years in prison for something he didn’t even do. He was accused, rejected, and forgotten… and yet, God had not forgotten him.I’ve had seasons like that too—times where the waiting...
