What’s up Facaders! This week is a female empowerment type of episode. I talk with my very good friend, Lexi Loccisano, who moved out to LA at the same time as I did to work for the show Shark Tank. We went to college together and applied for the same internship not expecting for both of us to get it but when we did we were filled with joy because we knew that when the going got tough, we would have a friend to lean on. A friend who you can lean on in LA especially is so important because not only do they remind you of home and that you’re not alone in a huge city, but they kind of keep you grounded and understand how you’re feeling with certain things for example when happy hour here is normal priced items in Florida… but anywayss Lexi is a singer/songwriter who hopes to inspire and create change with her songs. We talk about relationships, tinder, being pressured to do things sexually that almost no one would be comfortable with, mental health and taking back our power as women and people to protect our most vulnerable moments in life.
I think there’s a lot of outside pressures on situations sometimes to do the right thing or almost a question of why would you do something that you’re not comfortable with but the double edged sword with that is you don’t know what you would do in certain situations, whether you freeze up, do something out of love or even just do it and are regretful after the fact, we as females need to be there for each other to listen, help process, and help out where needed. This episode taught me that our feelings are valid and important, sometimes we don’t have and answer as to why we do something but it’s better to focus on what we learned and took away from the situation in moving forward with our lives and then I also learned that we have to be vulnerable with ourselves first. Knowing what we want and who we want to share our deepest desires with and waiting for that moment in doing so. Loving ourselves first is the top priority and if we can’t do that, we start to spiral into these feelings of negativity, self-loathing, comparing and eventually depression. Lexi was able to break down some of these feelings with me and I am so glad she was willing to because I think some of this is going to be relatable for so many of us women. I know it was for me. Lexi was ready to break the facades, are you?
