Hi writers,
I’m opening up my waitlist for Fall-Winter '26-'27, with limited spots available for both my 3-month mentorship and my new by-invitation-only 6-month option. To discuss!
Scroll down past my bio (and some love notes from writers I've worked with) to schedule a complimentary 30-minute call and we can explore working together this season.
Email alexa@alexawilding.com if you need more options.
I look forward to meeting you!
xx Alexa

About me:
I'm a writer, musician, teacher, and mother. After a decade as a singer-songwriter ("the neo-Stevie Nicks" The New York Times), I earned my MFA from The Brooklyn Writers Foundry. Most recently, I've been a frequent contributor to Suleika Jaouad's The Isolation Journals, with two essays and accompanying writing prompts (one co-written with my son, Lou) featured in the instant bestseller,The Book of Alchemy: A Creative Practice for an Inspired Life, alongside Elizabeth Gilbert, Sharon Salzberg, Gloria Steinem, and others. I've also written for Mother Tongue, Dossier, Cup of Jo, Parents, and was a contributing writer at Departures. My newsletter, Resilience, hit the Top 100 in Rising Culture on Substack.
I've been profiled on multiple platforms such as Allure's "Dispelling Beauty Myths" series (17M views), New York Family (cover story), Style Like U, Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, The Glow, Mother, and the podcast So, Life Wants You Dead. Tagged as "one of music's hippest chicks" alongside Florence & the Machine in Page Six, I was also named one ofThe Village Voice's most stylish New Yorkers, with critical acclaim in music outlets such as Magnet, Nylon, and Bust.
On a personal note, I'm a cancer mom to my son, Lou (a two-time survivor), a breast cancer survivor myself, and an advocate. I'm also a Buddhist practitioner and student in the Vajrayana tradition. I love lipstick, beautiful dresses, and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Those things are important, too! A native New Yorker, I live upstate in Tivoli, NY with my partner and twin sons. I'm working on my first book, new music, and mentoring writers like you.
