    Gosh, Alex is fabulous... the kind of person that makes you feel better about yourself... As a father it is such an important message to understand not to stop my kids from expressing themselves in their own manner... as opposed to expecting them to fit what I believe to be the societal norms. Thanks Alex...

    Wow she is amazing. She reminds me of how trapped we become everyday just aiming for perfection and hiding ourselves just to fit in and look normal and act normal which leads to suppressing our own thoughts and ideas. It's just weird how we do so much for the satisfaction and acceptance of others rather than ourselves. We spend more than half of our lives unhappy with ourselves which eventually leads to depression and negative self talk. The message that I got from her was to just love yourself, accept yourself and be free and not care about others have to say about you. Ahhh this was inspiring :')

    It amazes me that someone can be so unique and so confident and yet put everyone around them so at ease with their humility and genuine openness. She's an inspiration

    Lovely moral behind this video... Just be free. free from judgement. Free to simply be, You. Much respect to her. We need more of this in any strict, & stifled societies... Loosen Up. Free yourselves.

    Thank you Alex. Gorgeous talk!
    My sister always got everything in blue. When a stylist friend told me 'these are your blues' as she handed me a palette, my brain shrieked "but blue is my sister's colour!!" As far as my brain was concerned, she owned blue.

    Alex, you have done a great job of telling the story. It has become my passion to help others learn to accept their self with confidence through painting.

    Alex Box puts into words things I have suspected my whole life surrounding the topic of art and being a makeup artist. Genius

    Very inspiring and wonderfull image with the bobles and ways of being in life - the open, innocent, playful attitude as the door to total aliveness - just wonderfull

    Outstanding talk. I wasn't that interested to begin with as I don't feel I am particularly artistic or thought of it much. But her insight on other levels such as the personal space a beautician has access to made my ears perk up. What an observant and instinctually inspiring woman.

    a very deep talk leading to sadness for me - being brought up more by my sister with a lot of "comforming" situations, then me becoming a very rigid architect who could NOT go far .. 😟😟😟
    never managed to UNcomform ..

    I wish she could articulate with words better rather than gestural movements so I could understand her more clearly. I like her message.

  • @MegaEmmaJay

    Misleading video description. There is too much "me, me, me" in this video and not enough about learning to "unsee" things, learning to draw again....
