Field Note from Ep. 1 – Your invitation to me/you/us/we

There are moments when we know we’re entering something new—not in a loud, dramatic way, but in a quiet way that feels like coming home. Like a deeper breath. Like the part of you that was always waiting for this exact version of now.

For me, this is one of those moments.

Last year, I tried to launch this podcast. I went through the motions, set it all up, recorded the intro… and it fizzled. It felt like something I “should” do—another checkbox in the name of being visible.

At the time, I thought I just needed to push through. Keep going. Produce something—anything—to prove I was doing something meaningful. But deep down, I knew I wasn’t ready. Not because I didn’t care, but because I cared too much. I didn’t want to fill the internet with more noise. I wanted to create something that felt like medicine. Like truth. Like a landing place.

I’ve spent the past two years not in active healing, but in deep integration. Less seeking, more settling. Less proving, more embodying.

This time around feels like a reclaiming. A re-rooting. A remembering.

I’ve spent the past two years not in active healing, but in deep integration. Less seeking, more settling. Less proving, more embodying.

And from this space, me/you/us/we was reborn.

The Pause that Brought Me Home

In that space of stillness, I gave myself permission to not perform. To not produce. To not pretend I had anything figured out. And slowly, the whispers returned.

I realized the podcast I needed to make wasn’t one that gave advice. It was one that asked better questions. One that held nuance, not perfection. A space to explore the richness of being human—messy, expansive, contradictory, holy.

Because life isn’t black and white. Healing doesn’t happen in 3 steps. There is so much beauty in the in-between.

This podcast isn’t a self-help manual. It’s a portal. A place to soften, to explore, to reflect—not for the sake of getting it “right,” but for the sake of getting closer to you.

A New Name, A New Energy

Many know me as, Alexa Glazer. That name held a version of me that was loud, driven, always reaching. Now, I go by Alexa Brown. Not just because I got married, but yay! But because I myself have walked through a life portal, and I got grounded.

This isn’t just a name change. It’s a soul shift. One that carries less urgency and more intention. One that’s less about proving, and more about presence.

This podcast is woven into that shift. It’s a reflection of what happens when you let go of the version of yourself you thought you had to be—and allow space for what wants to unfold.

From Information to Integration

I don’t claim to have the answers here. In fact, this space was born out of the rejection of easy answers. We’re surrounded by a world of quick tips and how-tos. But real growth isn’t linear. It’s layered. It’s slow. It’s sacred.

This podcast isn’t for fixing you.
It’s for feeling with you.
For walking beside you.
For reminding you that you’re not alone in your becoming.

This Is the Portal

This is for the one craving deeper connection, but unsure how to begin.
For the one tired of self-help that feels like self-judgment.
For the one who knows that there’s something sacred in the everyday—but keeps forgetting to look for it.

This is a place to return. A place to remember. A place to exhale.

There are moments when we know we’re entering something new—not in a loud, dramatic way, but in a quiet way that feels like coming home. Like a deeper breath. Like the part of you that was always waiting for this exact version of now.

For me, this is one of those moments.

Launching the me/you/us/we podcast—again, but differently—is not about performance or perfection. It’s about presence. It’s about integration. It’s about finally choosing to do things in a way that feels honest, slow, and soul-aligned.

Last year, I tried to launch this podcast. I went through the motions, set it all up, recorded the intro… and it fizzled. It felt like something I “should” do—another checkbox in the name of being visible. But this time? This time is a reclaiming. A re-rooting. A remembering.

I’ve spent the past two years not in active healing, but in deep integration. Less seeking, more settling. Less proving, more embodying.

And from that space, me/you/us/we was reborn.

This podcast isn’t a self-help manual. It’s a portal. A place to soften, to explore, to reflect—not for the sake of getting it “right,” but for the sake of getting closer to you.

It's not here to give you answers. It’s here to ask better questions.

Because life isn’t black and white. Healing doesn’t happen in 3 steps. There is so much beauty in the in-between.

This is for those of us who are tired of chasing the ideal version of life and are ready to begin living the one we already have. The one that changes. The one that confuses us. The one that still holds magic.

It’s not perfect. But it’s real.

Reflection Questions from the Episode:

→What parts of yourself are you ready to meet more deeply?
→What does self-discovery feel like for you right now—an unraveling, a remembering, a slow unfolding?
→Where in your life are you craving deeper connection?

My Own Reflections:

What parts of yourself are you ready to meet more deeply?
I’m ready to meet the version of me who doesn’t rush. The one who trusts that stillness is just as valuable as strategy. The part of me that doesn’t need to explain herself, only feel rooted in her own knowing.

What does self-discovery feel like for you right now?
Right now, it feels like a slow unfolding. Less urgency, more curiosity. Like standing at the edge of something tender, and instead of leaping, I’m learning to sit beside it first.

Try This Prompt:

Next time you feel like you’re “doing it wrong,” pause. Ask yourself:
Is this really wrong for me—or just not aligned with me right now?
Let yourself soften into the answer.
