Alexandra Franzen – Promotional Wordsmith::Personal Scribe
Today, I’ve got another interview in my Designed for Success podcast with the lovely Alexandra Franzen. Just two short years after being a full-fledged, full-time entrepreneur Alexandra is at the top of her game. She’s booked moooonths in advance for her signature offer, clients RAVE about her and she’s got shimmering praise from respected online supanovas like Danielle LaPorte and Marie Forleo. In this interview I share her human design chart with her and we talk about how Alexandra learned to follow her design to grow her business. Listen in and be inspired!
In the interview Alexandra shares:
- How learning to play more than she works led to more success in her business
- The surprising result of unplugging that creates more fun, creativity and money into her business
- How she discovered her creativity rhythm and used it to build a business model that works for her
- A great way to find out what your natural rhythm is
- The question Alex repeated to herself like a mantra that led to her best-selling signature offering
- The one move that led to supercharged testimonials, clients knocking down her door and her business taking off
- Top advice for entrepreneurs starting their businesses
- Why you need to write self-care into your business plan
- How Alexandra taps into her inner wisdom to make decisions

Let me know in the comments.
Often with interviews of this length, I’ll get distracted halfway through and start browsing the web, keeping the video on in the background and listening with one ear. Not this time. I was hooked on Alex’s every word – what an inspiration! And she was so right when she said that every one of your questions was a good one
You come across as such a confident interviewer. So glad I found this post (thanks to the magic of B-School connections!).

Fantastic interview Ije. I’ve been a fan of Alexandra’s for a while now so it was exciting to see you two interact. Great series and I look forward to more!
I agree with Alexandra – you ask really good questions! With your guidance regarding questions and Alexandra’s authentic answers, I feel like this interview was created specifically to address the questions I’ve been asking in my own life right now. Gratitude to both of you!
What a fantastic interview! Fantastic questions and brilliant way to marry your gifts with this interview series. I was glued to every word and resonate with the two of you immensely. Not only did I get a peak into Alexandra after having my session with here last week, (holy cow – I’m so grateful!) I also got to know more about what you do, ije. I look forward to connecting more!
