A Joyful Charter: A Conversation with Alexandreena Dixon

Giada/ Alexandreena Dixon Season 1 Episode 1

A conversation with Alexandreena Dixon, founder of Chiku Awali African Dance, Arts & Culture, Inc. of Rockland County in New York State. Its mission is to promote, encourage, and project civic and cultural programs and activities in Rockland County that are representative of African dance and culture.

Listen as we explore the magic of starting something new and how sharing what moves us has the potential to change lives.

“Anything that you really want to accomplish in life, you can do it, if you have the belief in yourself that you can do it.

It takes will.

It takes courage.

It takes reinforcement from those around you.

It takes people saying, "yes," you can do this.

It takes self efficacy."


Chiku Awali needs your support to continue to offer its youth enrichment programs, including art projects;  community performances; The Rites of Passage Program for Young Men and Women; The Excellence Club for Children and Families;  Hope for Ghana - Shore to Shore Project ;  Educational and Cultural Field Trips; the African Dance Extravaganza; and more.

Adults with ADHD often struggle with bringing their dreams to fruition. We have no problems coming up with big ideas, but we often fall under the weight of our own disorganization, leading to a life of missed potential. This podcast is a call, an invitation, if you will, to re-examine and redefine yourself in light of your ADHD strengths. Time to shine.
