In this unforgettable episode of Speaking of Travel, meet Alexandra Kinias, a fearless trailblazer rewriting the rules on what it means to live boldly, age defiantly, and lead with purpose.

From forging her path as a mechanical engineer in a male-dominated world to becoming a celebrated screenwriter and outspoken women’s rights advocate, Alex’s life is a breathtaking testament to courage, reinvention, and relentless hope. She’s not just breaking barriers though. She’s building bridges for women across cultures and generations. 

With unflinching honesty and radiant wisdom, Alex shares her extraordinary journey from the quiet strength it took to walk away from convention, to the power of finding her voice through storytelling and activism, to standing atop Mount Kilimanjaro at 60 as a symbol of resilience and possibility.
