Welcome to Season 2 Episode 6!
Alexandra Cowley is a force to be reckoned with. As an intrepid traveller, wandering mostly solo around the world, before meeting her partner in London and settling in Singapore during COVID, Alex now resides in Manly.
She may live by the ocean, but Alex has won her dream job in a remote role, managing The Exchange Group and acting as Executive Assistant to its founding director, renowned rural mover and shaker, Jillian Kilby.
Brought up in Dubbo, NSW and heading off to Abbotsleigh for boarding school at the age of 13, Alex tells us about her time spent at boarding school and the years beyond. She tells the tale of how boarding life shaped her into the motivated and aspirational young woman she is today. We chat about her short stint as an assistant house mistress once she’d left school…. what it was like imposing the rules, not breaking them.
Enjoy this conversation with Alexandra Cowley.
