The other half of last week’s story

The other half of last week’s story

Last week, I shared my conversation with Preston Smiles, and your response has been incredible. Today, I'm excited to bring you the other half of this powerful duo: Alexi Panos.

I had the pleasure of meeting Alexi a decade ago, and watching her and Preston's journey unfold - from dating to marriage, to building successful ventures together, to raising a beautiful family of four children.

Alexi's own journey is remarkable. By 16, she was attending Tony Robbins seminars. In her early 20s, she was already a homeowner and had launched a nonprofit bringing clean water to Tanzania.

She grew up in an entrepreneurial Greek family, surrounded by big dinners and bigger dreams. But what strikes me most about Alexi is how she's always sought deeper meaning, even while working in entertainment and achieving external success.

And as Preston mentioned in his interview, Alexi's marketing expertise helped transform their ventures. Now you'll get to hear Alexi’s perspective - about growing up never seeing a relaxed woman, about healing from trauma, about choosing purpose over proving, and about her mission to make personal development mainstream.

Whether you start with Preston's episode or dive straight into this one with Alexi, you're in for something special. Their stories weave together beautifully, each offering a unique lens on what it means to live a life of purpose.

I can't wait to hear which parts of this conversation light you up the most.
