Cressida Bonas Instagram – ALEX IKONN on finding gratitude through extreme challenges, reframing the difficult moments in life and why he created The Five Minute Journal 💫💖
This week, we are delighted to be speaking to Alex Ikonn, a serial entrepreneur and founder of Intelligent Change.
Alex joins us to chat about his journey of personal growth and the transformative power of gratitude, which eventually led him to create the journal that he describes as ‘a toothbrush for your mind.’ In this heartfelt conversation, Alex reflects on spending his early years in Russia and starting again in the United States, how he navigated the devastating loss of his father and his own physical disabilities, and how the unconditional love and acceptance of his mother shaped his outlook on life.
We also touch on parenting and the joy of seeing children experience the world for the first time, the importance of nurturing self-love, and the pursuit of a life aligned with one’s true desires.
Settle down with a cup of tea and enjoy this episode! Thank you @alexikonn for speaking with us 💖
