Alexandria Altman (she/her) is a novelist, writer, speaker, and lifestyle coaching consultant. Her creative journey began at the age of three, when she first picked up a small red movie camera and began directing family members in imaginative scenes, even creating dialogue for cartoons projected on the wall. That early instinct for storytelling evolved into a lifelong passion for building characters, worlds, and narratives. She holds a Master’s-level foundation in Creative Arts through Duke University, and her work today continues to blend literature, film development, wellness, and creative career consulting.
With more than 30 years of writing experience under her full name, Alexandria Altman has authored multiple works, including two international bestsellers, John Carpenter Speaks Out and Cinderella Chronicles (Snow Moon). Her creative portfolio includes early media projects such as her talk show Mission Possible (2000–2002), as well as ongoing development of literary franchises currently being adapted for film. She is represented in part through public relations executive Roger Neal of Beverly Hills, who also collaborates with her on select production and industry events, including award-season gatherings. Her storytelling approach is deeply character-driven—she builds personalities with distinct lives, goals, and inner worlds, which often evolve into fully realized narratives across her books and screen projects.
Beyond her writing and creative work, Alexandria’s life experience spans entrepreneurship, luxury business, and transformative personal evolution. In her early career, she built and owned a limousine company, and later experienced life within a highly affluent Beverly Hills environment that included international travel, yachts, private aviation, and a highly visible social lifestyle. Over time, she chose to step away from that world in pursuit of deeper alignment with her personal values and spiritual foundation, prioritizing authenticity, service, and purpose over material wealth. Today, she channels those experiences into her work as a mentor, writer, and coach, focused on empowering women, supporting creative professionals, and using storytelling as a tool for transformation, inspiration, and meaningful impact.

Q

What do you attribute your success to?

I attribute my success to constantly reinventing myself and never accepting limitations. I'm known as constantly reinventing myself, and I think that really leverages our life up and it's a boost for everything that we do. We've got to keep moving upward, and as we move upward, reinventing ourself and extending our knowledge is beautiful. It just makes you feel bold and beautiful with each business that you reach for, each thing that elevates you up. As long as you're moving up, it widens your perspective. I don't think about doing something - if something comes to my mind, I just do it. I'm someone, when I start something, I just don't throw it aside and say, well, I'm done with that, I'm gonna go to the next thing. I keep in my mind, constantly: What made me? Who made me? What can I do to expand my mind? What can I do to expand other people's minds? How can I help someone to become a better them? It was also Tony Robbins that helped me with my mindset to heal after losing my daughter. Tony helped me learn how to live again, how to smile again, how to look at life in a way that my daughter would want me to be happy and keep living for her.

Q

What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?

I want to motivate and inspire women to start being who they really are. Women don't realize their power. I've run across so many different types of women, and they go, how do you do everything? You can't do it all. I have been told that so many times - Alexandria, you can't do everything. And I said, oh, but I can. You've got to be bold in what it is you are, what you want, and you can't talk about it, you've got to become it. When you step into that spotlight as a speaker or anything that you're doing, you have got to be resilient, you've got to be bold. Do what you love, and if you don't love what you do, you're not going to excel at it. We need to become who we already are. We're not all supposed to be actresses or models or authors and writers. We all have different gifts. What is your gift? Whatever your passion is, you don't need to go outside that box and try to be something that you're not, because whatever you came here with is such an amazing gift. Whether you're a secretary, be the best secretary and be a happy one. Bring life into that office, bring life into your careers, bring life and passion into everything that you do, because if you're passionate and you've got ethics, and morals, and integrity, your life is going to go very well.

Q

What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?

The biggest challenge I see right now is the way people are eating today and all the misinformation about nutrition. Even the top restaurants are talking about food sitting around too long and being poisonous. I want women to be aware of what they eat and be careful. There's so many things out there about 'oh, you take this pill, you'll lose 20 pounds in a week' - that's not possible, and it's not healthy. They don't realize that losing weight, if they're not on the right program, when you're losing tons of weight at a fast rate, you don't realize that you're shrinking your heart and doing so much damage to your liver, your kidneys, your heart. They don't tell you that you can lose your eyesight from these shots. It's so important to me to talk about health and wellness and do things right, because the things they put out there, it's about money, not about you losing weight or looking good. I want to put the truth in the truth of weight loss. I want to help guide women through the truth of their weight loss journey. Health comes at many stages in life and many sizes in life. It's just about being the best you at where you are, meeting you where you are. If they're 350 pounds, I'm gonna meet you there, I'm gonna be along beside you. We're not doing this for looks, we're doing it for your health.

Q

What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?

I live with passion. There's a movie, Serendipity, where a man works for the New York Times and he says the Greek have one question when someone dies: Did you live with passion? I feel like life should be lived with passion, and whatever your passion is, that's what matters. If you're passionate and you've got ethics, and morals, and integrity, your life is going to go very well. I feel we should inspire our own self and motivate our own self so we can help others do the same for themselves. The world is in such chaos right now, and people are filled with the negativity and the depression of the world. I don't choose to do that. We can make our own choices, and I choose to not look at all the negatives or fall into the gap of depression. What's important to me is helping others. I don't think about myself, but put my mind to helping people. Be the light for someone else's darkness, and help them down that road. The more people you help, the more you heal. I came to this planet to help others, to inspire others, not to be just 'hello, she's so-and-so.' I want to be something that represents something good for everyone.
