Meet Alexandria Mann of Authentically Alex in Lithonia

Local Stories

Today we’d like to introduce you to Alexandria Mann.

Alexandria, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
In 2017, I started my first blog, The King’s Daughter. It was birthed because I was looking for a community online for young Christian women and I couldn’t find one I felt connected to so I started my own. After a year of blogging and building a community of women I started to have a desire to blog more about lifestyle and showing young Christian women in a more relatable light. To break the stereotypes of women in the church and to spread the love of God.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
I believe when you do anything God has called you to do there is a level of fear and opposition you will face. Fear is sometimes our biggest obstacle. I struggled with fear of judgement from others, having a perfect blog, picture, or caption before posting, you just have to do it, I honestly believe that there are people tied to our obedience. God uses people to have His will done on the Earth.

We’d love to hear more about your work.
Authentically Alex is a lifestyle blog that focuses on faith, family, and food. We inspire women to walk boldly in their purpose and enjoy life. I am most proud of the positive impact that has been made amongst our readers. We have encouraged women to not only be their best self through our recommendations but also by providing inspiration.

If you had to go back in time and start over, would you have done anything differently?
I would just go for it. I would not wait and watch others as long as I did. The only difference between me and them at that time is that they started and showed up for their audience.
