About this listen

Hi! I’m Alexa Jo, but you may hear me called Alexa, Lex, Jojo, or Joj on the show.

I founded Lila by Alexa Jo, home to a blog, community, events, and now a podcast.

Lila is defined as: "a wholehearted contentedness upon the recognition that every happenstance in one’s life thus far has led this this very moment, in this very place, with these very people."

I wrote a whole piece about why I chose “Lila” that you can find on my blog.

Each week I’m joined by a different guest to talk about all kinds of topics. This started as I was interviewing cool people I met while traveling, but then I thought about how my people back home had a lot of important things to say too. Now, It's much more. From solo travel, to mental health, to social causes, to the meaning of life…we’re tackling it all.

I dream of building a community, writing a couple novels, lifting-up others, and talking about real-life sh*t.

Need some company, a belly laugh, or a hand to hold? Listen to Lila.

    33: Getting your masters abroad?! Sara Did!
    Oct 9 2024

    This week I'm joined by my friend Sara McCabe!

    After studying abroad twice in her undergraduate degree, she decided to pursue her Masters Degree in York. We talk finding your passion, learning more about the world, immigrating to another country, and knowing when it’s time to come home. Now, she works as an advisor in the study abroad department at a university and sits down the the Lila Podcast to share her story.

    Everyone, meet Sara McCabe
