About Me

Hey, I’m Lexi!

Alexis Hughes Williams

I’m so glad that you are here! I’m a mom of one awesome young man, married to my college love and an entrepreneur!  I own two businesses Girl, unKnown Inc.-a women’s development & empowerment organization given to motivate, uplift & enlighten women of all orientations, religions, colors, & socioeconomic backgrounds through social and educational engagements, workshops & retreats. and Something Sweet, LLC., a virtual and pop-up bakery.

I grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and it was there that my entrepreneurial spirit was fostered.  At 10 years old I started a block club for the children in my neighborhood.  We would gather and do different planned activities.  I always loved to cook and bake and have always made cakes, cookies and pies for people and they would pay me for them.

I then moved to Nashville, Tennessee, graduated from Tennessee State University with my degree in Business Administration, concentrated in Marketing.  All the while bringing people together-offering help and different solutions for business issues and baking. 

I did corporate America for awhile, then we had our son and we decided it was best for me to stay home and take care of him.  Then I got bored.  I tried different things to make some extra income during idle time, but it always came back to baking.  When other ladies began taking note of what I was doing, they started asking me questions.  Girl, unKnown was birthed out women wanting to connect and support and uplift each other.  At some point we all feel like we are lost in the woods and would love just a little bit of guidance.  I was fortunate enough to have some great women mentor me and now I feel it only right to pay it forward.  You’re not alone.  I’m leaving you breadcrumbs to help you find your way through.


So here we are!

As time moves forward, I have discovered that I have a true passion for helping others!

I have come up with great plans and strategies to help you on your way to living your best life on your own terms.


This blog is another aspect of what I do there, but it is more personal.  You get to know a lot more about my personal stories and ask me questions directly.  I love to connect with like minded women and give tips and tricks to help  us all.

My blog is for women who aspire to be a Girl Boss.  I give a lot of information for women in the idea stages, all the way to those who are in business and want to grow.
