Thank you Alex, your words found me at a most difficult time today. I am sitting at my mother’s hospice bedside and I am deeply moved by the power of your gift. I played your reading for my mom to hear and I believe it was just what she needed too. 🙏🏼

I’m letting my joy be loud

This is a welcome surprise, and to hear you narrating it was a cherry on top. Your poem reminds me of the power of self compassion. Sometimes I live with shame for the things I have done in my past. Your poem reminds me to welcome in all versions of myself and extend forgiveness and grace to things done when I was not healed. Thank you, Alex! Happy Holiday ❤️

"I am letting my joy be loud, unapologetic in it's radiance."

This simple but powerful verse resignated in my soul as soon as I read it.

Thank you Alex Elle for every beautiful and sultry word.
