This week, Chicago Barbie returns home - and back to herself. In today's episode, Alex gets real about what it means to grow into the woman God is calling her to be, even in rooms where she feels misunderstood, underestimated, or out of place. From navigating life as a young Black woman in predominantly white spaces, to rebuilding confidence after setbacks, to staying grounded in faith while still loving beauty, glam, and soft girl energy, this is the reset episode you didn't know you needed.

Alex also answers listener-submitted Ask Alex questions about walking with God in college, balancing social media with mental health, protecting your spirit in a world full of comparison, and embracing your calling even when it scares you.

If you have been craving a conversation that is equal parts faith-filled, funny, feminine, and deeply honest - welcome home.

Listen now and step into your God-led glow-up.

College. Faith. Girlhood. Growth. 💕

In this episode, Alexandra El-Amin — aka Chicago Barbie — opens up about what it’s really like starting her new chapter in Boulder. From homesickness and culture shock to rediscovering confidence and staying grounded in faith, she shares the real, raw, and radiant side of college life.

You’ll hear about:

Adjusting to life away from Chicago

How prayer keeps her centered through change

Building confidence when you feel out of place

And why becoming isn’t about finding yourself — it’s about building who you want to be

Because even in the mountains, God is still God — and Chicago Barbie is still evolving.

✨ Listen now to Literally My Life — the podcast for faith, girlhood, and the glow-up that’s more than skin deep.
