Hey Steemers!
Let's do this!
Nicknames – Lex, Lexi & Butterfly
28 years old
½ Puerto Rican ½ whitest of the white girls
American - Louisiana
Graduated from The University of Southern Mississippi
Degree – biology and forensic science(ish)
Traveler – 78 countries and counting
Sex educator, writer, speaker, blogger
Sexuality and alternative relationship revolutionary (sounds profound, doesn’t it?)
Social Media (I don’t know the relevance, but I saw someone else do it)
Facebook – 4,824/1,599 (followers)
Instagram – 4,212
Twitter – Still confuses the hell out of me. . .so 79
Snapchat – SexEdLex
Some of my favorite things. . .
Alternate states of consciousness
Induced and otherwise
Vibing with brilliant people
Nothing like a convo that goes from Hi, I’m Alexa to discussions of. . .well. . .maybe. . .alternate states of consciousness
Learning
Sometimes I have a mild panic attack when I think of all the things I want to know things about!
Reading
This needs it’s own section
Yoga
Even though I’m totally not bendy
Tattoos
I have a full sleeve and others
Incubus
Two of my tattoos are lyrics and it's the one thing I carried over from my pot smoking days in high school to my pot smoking days now
Traveling
I lived on luxury cruise ships for 6 years. Been to every continent except Antarctica.
Drag Queens
Mostly because my favorite person in the world (my niece) is obsessed with them. And I find their typical dramatic hilarious.
EDM
Yep, I go to those festivals ON PURPOSE. So what I’m almost 30
The sun (I’m SUCH a LEO)
My birthday (see above)
Crying tears of joy
Speaking in front of groups of people
I get lost. I don’t care what the topic is, just give me the mic and I’m high.
Writing
I’ve never experienced connection to self on a greater scale than when writing. Also a drug.
Being in flow (usually happens with doing either of the above)
Friends – my actual ones and the TV show from the 90s
Live music & music festivals
The color violet
Current color of my hair, part of my personal brand *Violet Butterfly LLC, and my favorite chakra
Talking about sex, sexuality, love & relationships
Leading people to ‘aha moments’
Books –
Flowers in the Attic
Harry Potter
Sex at Dawn
The Ethical Slut
Think and Grow Rich
The Game/The Truth
Vagina
Stealing Fire
The Code of the Extraordinary Mind
The Power of Now
Ok, I’ll admit it. . .I read the Twilight books. . .and I liked them. Whatever no big deal. . .
Movies –
Wedding Crashers
Knocked Up
Pitch Perfect
The original Adam Sandler Movies
And pretty much all other ridiculous comedies
And occasionally the ones that typically make ladies all warm and cozy inside
A little more about me:
About 8 months ago, I walked off of luxury cruise ship number 19 and said good-bye to the life I had at sea for the previous 6 years.
I went to a personal development event called Afest by Mindvalley and decided to say “fuck it” to anything and everything in my life that didn’t feel quite right, including my job.
Then I was hit with an “Oh shit! What do I do now?”
I asked myself the all important and totally cliché question of “If you had all the resources in the world, what would you spend your days doing?”
And my response was – be on stage
That was a great first step – realization. But then I had to admit to myself and those in my life that what I wanted to do on the stage was liberate people from social, religious, traditional constructs holding them back in an incredibly taboo area of their lives – SEX.
Took me a couple of months, but I eventually put it out there.
So that is what I do now. I fill my life with all my favorites from above. I continue my nomadism and self-education all the while writing, speaking and healing people in the realm of sexuality.
I have a blog (that is EVER changing) you can check out here – thevioletbutterfly.com
I am so new to Steemit you can probably smell it coming through your screen. I’m open to making this platform a home for me and I am even more open to new friends, connections, advice givers, people who want to make me laugh (it doesn’t take much) and beyond.
Thanks for reading that random babble <3
