Finding My Balance Again

The last couple of months have been nothing short of turbulent. So much has changed in my life, and I’ve felt completely out of balance. One of the biggest changes? My family and I moved to Portugal.

It’s beautiful here, sunny days, ocean air, and new adventures, but this change turned out to be much bigger than I expected. When my familiar support system suddenly wasn’t there anymore, life got quiet. And in that stillness, I could hear my own voice even louder. At first, that might sound like a gift—but it wasn’t all comforting. It made me realize just how off balance I’d become.

Normally, I have my trusted ways to get my mind, body, and soul aligned again. But this time, they didn’t work. That unsettled me. It made me question many things, including my love for byAlex.

I’ve worked incredibly hard over the past 9 years to build byAlex. It’s been my heart, my creativity, and my mission all rolled into one. But in the past months, I’ve doubted myself, doubted my ability to turn it into the flourishing business I know it can be. And I noticed something powerful (and a little scary): when I’m out of balance, my business immediately follows.

That made me ask myself: why is that? How can it be that I’ve set up so many things so well, yet the moment I stop putting the right energy in, it all starts to wobble?

Maybe the answer is this: a positive vibration in life isn’t just “nice to have”; it’s fuel. It’s the energy that helps us flourish, stay creative, and keep moving toward our goals. Without it, even the most carefully built systems can start to lose their spark.

It reminds me of something I’ve written about before. How to affirm your life. How to feed your mind with thoughts and feelings that lift you up instead of weighing you down. I think I’m ready to step back into that mindset.

This past week, I’ve felt a shift. I’m ready to slowly step back into the social media jungle again. I’ve probably lost the algorithm by now (thanks, Instagram), but maybe you can help me find my way back. Just liking one of my post will already give me a push in the right direction.

Thank you for sticking around through the quiet. Keep an eye on your inbox—because I’m planning some special deals in the coming months. And maybe, just maybe, we’ll step into this new chapter together—with fresh energy and a positive vibration.
