This year I’ve decided to celebrate April Fools Day a little earlier. I know you’ve heard about the health benefits of laughter before. If you haven’t, a few years ago I’ve explored in a blog post some science-backed reasons for laughing more. But today, wanted to bring you someone who actively incorporates humor into her life.
My today’s guest is Alexa Rohn. We met through Seth Godin’s altMBA program where I quickly realized that Alexa is a marketing wiz.
Our in-depth conversations continued after graduation when I learned that most of Alexa’s clients are in the fields of wellness, self-care, bio-hacking, natural foods, and consciousness hacking. And Alexa started serving these individuals and companies by devoting quite a bit of time and energy exploring these areas herself.
But her passion for performance and immersive experiences was the main reasons I wanted to introduce her to you.
By the end of this episode, I hope you’ll be inspired to explore something new in your life – maybe clowning or theater, but in reality anything that will make you smile and laugh.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
1.
How Alexa became curious about habits and began exploring changes in her life
2.
Why Alexa loves concentrating on habits that create joy
3.
What is clowning, immersive experiences, how these became part of Alexa’s life, and useful resources for you on how to get started
CONTACTING OUR GUEST:
”Clowning is anytime you’re being a character embodying a pure whimsical joy, being an archetype for fun and big laughs. By being silly and ridiculous you’re able to release other people to be silly and ridiculous themselves.”
“If you’re really into Halloween, clowning is the way to do it all the time.”

”Is this improving my life? Is this bringing me joy? Am I enjoying myself right now with real true elation and vibrancy? When I ask these questions a lot of things go out of the window pretty fast.”
“We overprioritize all of the have to do’s and forget about our own joy and wellness.”

Mountain Rose Herbs is an online purveyor of the highest quality organically grown herbs and spices, teas, essential oils, & botanical goods.
In 1987, the company made it their mission to provide plant lovers with exceptional organic botanicals harvested with the utmost respect for the places they grow and the people who grow them. Since then, Mountain Rose Herbs has never ceased reimagining what good business can accomplish or working to turn their dreams into reality.
Recently I had a privilege of interviewing the company’s COO Jennifer Gerrity. During our conversation Jennifer highlighted three important areas in company’s everyday efforts:
- their commitment to quality (through buying certified organic or pesticide-free plants that have been sustainably harvested),
- their motivation to source responsibly from the best farmers and wild-harvesters, creating partnerships that last for decades and nurture the communities of growers and herbalists, and
- their ability to offer an incredible variety of products from herbs and spices to culinary oils, bath and body care products, essential oils and so much more.
Long ago I learned the importance of voting with my wallet, supporting companies and individuals doing an amazing work. I hope my conversation with Jennifer will inspire you to wholeheartedly support this company. Click to learn more about Mountain Rose Herbs.
