As one of your avid followers, I’m so glad that you followed your dream. Way to go Alexandra!

So proud of you Alexandra. I was a fan of yours since the home primp days and i remember being shocked the magazine let go of the most promising person that would set them ahead into the new world of KZread.... Their loss, our gain. We have more content from you now that you courageously branched out on your own and look at you now with your own office studio and full time employees of your own. Keep rockin it!!

Wow, Alexandra is not only a gifted decorator and an immensely engaging online presonality, she is also an awesome public speaker! Ive been following her, so I knew her journey, and still I was on the edge of my seat!

Alexandra, you bring tears to my eyes, I am so happy for you. I am twice your age, I love your channel and I pay attention to what you have to say. That was an excellent and inspiring talk. And this is just the beginning. 😁💖

I found Alexandra's channel on KZread during lockdown. I am not a millenial (she could be my daughter!) and yet her channel resonated with me. Her videos were all well written and well produced. I knew she had a good head on her shoulders. I've always wondered what made her start her channel. After seeing this, I admire and respect her more. She's not only inspiring to young adults, but also to people like me who thought it was too late to start something new. Thank you, Alexandra and TEDx Talks for this.

If I were her ex company I would hit my head to table that she taught us how to decorate, every day cos they left her go. 🙈😂😂😂 How didn't they see potential, I can't understand. Something to think about people who work there!? Maybe they're not fit for the title they have. I would be ashamed, if my job is finding talent and I let go one of the biggest talent in home decor and diy. But I'm also grateful, if they wouldn't let her go we would not have her in her full glory and for that I'm thankful for. Well done Alexandra, you inspire us all, not just in home decor but as a person 🙌❤️ Greeting from sLOVEnia, Europe

La Gatita, same here! Old enough to be her mom and found her videos somewhere around quarentine. 🙂

I had never heard of recreators and repurposers... I guess I'm a little of both. I was let go from my job as a graphic designer in a newspaper and since then I started a business as an illustrator, which has not been sustaining me yet, but I also wrote and illustrated a children's book, one of the things I'm proudest of.

I have been following your channel for years and years and years, but I am just now discovering this TED talk.Brava, Alexandra! That was really lovely!👏👏👏👏👏👏😊✊🏻

Alexandra, your TED Talk reminds me of the saying "Sometimes good things fall apart to allow even better things to come together" and it sounds like this was definitely the case for you! You are such an inspiring lady and I can't wait to see what the future has in store for team AG!

Gurl, you rock. Thank you so much for your heartfelt words. I am going to read that book you discussed. My reality is that the last job I had, made me an introvert and have extremely low self esteem. I'm in my 50's, I'm not done, just have to find my way.

Are you an extrovert?

I find it inspiring to listen to all these people who got fired or laid-off/lost their jobs then used this as the catalyst for a better career future... But most of the time these great stories involve people who are educated and experienced in great fields, therefore they have the resources to make things happen, or at least make it easier for them. I'm about to lose my job and I'm frustrated because I hate jobs and have no sense of purpose whatsoever. If you're in the same situation as mine, cheers to a hopeful and successful future. We'll get there.

Hope you're in a better place in your life now. I just lost my job and I'm struggling to see the light at the end of the tunnel given the current job market but I still have a bit of hope.

I'm also not a millennial but found Alexandra's channel prior to lockdown and it inspired me to make my house a home. I love her style, although it's not my style, I have found so many tips on how to create function and beauty to my own style. This talk resonated with me because I have been let go from two jobs that I loved, the first was a massive layoff and the second one due to COVID. Alexandra, ur so right about having trust and I'm still trying to find that. Congratulations on your success and thank you for not quitting. 🎉🍾🥂🎉🍾🥂🎉🍾🥂❤❤❤

Alexander you are so inspiring! I started a job as an independent contractor and so many times I just wanna walk away. But something inside of me says give it time and those around me say give it time. So after hearing you speak I'm going to keep chuggin along!

Inspiring! I love that you kept going despite the setbacks. Your success is well-earned and well-deserved.

Just came here from her channel. I just found out about it last month and I’m already a fan of her work. She’s so inspiring. ❤

Having lost my Dad and job this year this resonated with me. Wishing you continued success from a non-millennial who enjoys your content greatly.

Amazing talk Alexandra! What a great reminder for us all to remember the positives of every situation 👏🏽

In tears. Love you AG!!

Wonderful Alexandra. Am one of your subscribers from India. I wish you well. Very encouraged with your story.

TEAM AG!!! Love from South Texas! 💖

I've never heard the conversation about recreators and repurposers. Thank you.

Alexandra, I am a huge fan of yours! And now I know why I love what you do. Your passion and energy comes from your soul and resonates so much with me. THANK YOU for taking on your life in the most extraordinary way and blazing a trail across the world. Wishing you success and abundance every day!

This full-on made me cry. I have been watching Alexandra's channel for a year or so now, and her story is so incredibly inspiring. She is truly an inspiration to me and so many others out there! ❤️

I’ve been waiting for your TEDx Talk. Way to Go!!!

You have done so well for yourself. You have poise and the gift of creative thinking. You found a niche that needed to be filled and stuffed it full of AG! The world is waiting for you!

I'm so glad you didn't give up on you channel. I love your videos.

This is so incredibly amazing and motivating! I’m so glad you decided to trust yourself Alexandra- I love your channel!

Loved your talk. Thank you bless you. All your dreams come true.

This was so amazing Alexandra! Thank you for being so inspirational to people around the world!

Love her references & so happy for her this year & her new office series!!

This is so precious. All that hard work and self belief is the only way to get to your dreams! Thank you for sharing your journey in such an inspiring way.

I'm so happy for you. I like your videos a lot. Keep going!

Truly inspirational, I love watching her KZread videos, amazing to see she has even more recently grown to have a rented office space for her and her Team AG

Been waiting for this and so glad I didn’t miss it!

I looked at this when it came out and was inspired very much , I have seen you grow so much since then till now . Amazing and inspiring is an understatement NOW your generosity is your secret ingredient . You made it happen not only for you , you Are making it for so many . Congratulations Alexandra.

Inspiring me to stay on my journey doing what I know best! Great talk AG!

This was inspiring and what I needed to hear. Over the last year, I have been a reseller and it has been something I enjoyed, but a challenge with reward. It has always been up and down or put on the back burner because I need a "real job". What I took away from this is putting in that time and effort, because things fall into place, but being present for it is necessary for it to happen. Thank you for sharing your story and having the courage to take a big step after being let go from your dream job!

Loved this! Great message AG 💗

Your resilience and determination is inspiring! Well done!

Well done Alexandra. I love watching your Channel and look forward to seeing your new videos.

Oh sweetie! I think you are awesome! I love your makeovers and i have used many of your ideas in my own home...wonderful talk!...But i miss Harriet...God rest her beautiful soul!

Terrific talk Alexandra! Its so inspiring and encouraging for many who are in similar situations. Thank you for sharing your story in this powerful way!💐💐🌟🌟

Alexandra, I love, love, love your work and you are also a great public speaker. Keep going and fly high.

I am a huge fan of Alexandra. It is a relief for me entering to that world where we can worry about nice things. It is also inspiring for me when I think of being surrounded by a clean, fresh and happy beauty at home . Money is not all for that, good taste and creativity also matters. So, thank you, Alexandra, once more !

She is amazing and I can't wait to see more of her videos and creations -this video inspired me to trust in my abilities! Go AG!

Wow Alexandra thank you so much for sharing! I'm so incredibly proud of you for killing this. I've loved your channel from the beginning and seeing you get the recognition you deserve is so awesome.

So inspiring, Alexandra! In the midst of quarantine I started a new job. A couple of months I already felt like I wasn’t in age right place. Took the massive gamble of letting then know that it wasn’t for me and I was looking for another job. Still haven’t found that dream job, but I’m confident I will, I trust in my skills and I’m happy I took the gamble!

Thank you Alexandra

You know it's bs right? Losing a job hard thing

Well done, Alexandra. I’m happy for you. Writing and memorizing and delivering a speech is hard enough. Keeping it engaging and informative even harder. Congrats!!

I’ve watched you since you left that magazine that shall not be named;) I had no idea that was what happened I thought you left on your own like a lot of the buzzfeed ppl. Your incredible.

Such a HUGE fan of Alexandra already but, this just makes me like her even more! It's amazing to see where everyone starts! Congrats girl!

So happy I found this talk today! I am at that crossroad! I need to do some soul searching! Thank you Alexandra! I didn’t think I could be a bigger fan but I am after watching this! Continued success!!! 🥰

As a follower of Alexandras channel, I wish I had just a little bit of her creativity and guts. She is a very smart young woman and I hope I can watch her for a very long time as a creator on KZread, even though I know there will be bigger chances waiting for her.

I love your decor videos, Alexandra! You are bright, articulate, creative, funny, sweet and entirely relatable and charming. Journalism / home decor - articulate, methodical, yet spontaneous and creative. Thank you for this talk. The world is truly your oyster, kid, keep going for it

Wow. Thank you for sharing the true story behind the success. Most importantly the trust key resonated with me. Bravo. You deserve all the success and can’t wait to see your next endeavor!

This was so encouraging and inspirational thank you very much for sharing your story with us Alexander.

Alexandra Gater is so inspiring! I am very impressed about her journey. Loved watching her from the beginning to seeing where she is now. So very happy for her and what she has accomplished. I love that she gives credit to her team, as well. She is amazing!
