Host of Too Smart For This, lifestyle influencer, Wharton MBA, triple fire sign, ambitious material girl, ex-Google/YouTube, eldest daughter.
Alexis Barber is a creator, author, speaker, and strategist shaping the future of smart, intentional living. She helped launch YouTube Shorts at Google, built and scaled a premium lifestyle brand with partners including Rare Beauty and Bumble, and grew Too Smart For This into a leading media platform spanning podcasting, publishing, and community.
The show has been featured in Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, and more—and was later adapted into a guided journal published by Tarcher, an imprint of Penguin Random House. Alexis earned her MBA from Wharton School while building her work, blending cultural fluency with strategic rigor to help ambitious women build lives that are intentional, well-curated, and fully lived.
