Girl, cleanliness, safety, and faith. These are things you can’t really understand until you live in an environment that prioritizes these qualities.

@michaelsrensen2452 As a black American who has lived overseas I completely identify with what she said. Everyone’s experience is different and depends on their background. Take care.
Alexis I love you so much ! You’ve contributed immeasurably to my inner growth and work. I would pick up my mom with your videos playing and even she (a 69 year old) has learned so much from you. She always ask me “how’s your little big sister doing?” She thought you were moving to Dubai in February, and ask me how your move has been ever since. Today I’m going to pick her up and will show her you last couple of videos… she’s in for such a treat! She loves/cares for you as if you were her own child. My 1 year one daughter also loves your voice (listened to you and Mina on repeat throughout my pregnancy). Whenever you are in southern California we’d love to host you and nourish you (professional chef, who grows her own veggies). I love you and wish you the absolute BEST in absolutely EVERYTHING! Your are truly a God Send and an embodied sliver of the love and favor God has for us❤

Ashley this MAKES my day 🥺♥️ I so appreciate you sharing this with me and am so grateful to have you and your mama in this community. Sending you both lots of love ✨
Dubai is the only place in the world where I felt colourless!! Only ever known that feeling in melanated countries.
The United Arab Emirates needs to put you on the ambassador board and send you a check because you are definitely opening people’s eyes to wanting to visit.

Right…the glow😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰
Hearing you speak Arabic is so cool and made the move so much more real, like your really out there😭😭so happy for you🏠🔑✨💕🌷
Islam puts great value into cleanliness so it is very common to find bidets in every Muslim house. I am so happy you are living your dream life in Dubai. You give me inspiration to work towards my dreams, thank you Alexis❤
Sounds amazing! OMG! Thank you for sharing and congratulations on all the amazing things to come your way.
You are definitely glowing 💕💕 thank you for updating us on your life in Dubai!
So happy for you that the change is good ❤ and thank you for sharing so wonderful advice you have changed my life in so many ways.
"Women who are secure in themselves, have no problem complimenting other women." 🥰Alexis this statement made me stop and think. I paused to let it sink in deep. 🤩Wow love your videos More power to you and God bless you always.😍😇
I’m so happy for you and I love your perspective. ❤
I feel you're comparing two wonderful places- Dubai and USA. Most of the population on the planet would die to live in either of those. American men are the kindest, most gentlemen and masculine men that I've met, and I'm happy to hear that middle eastern men are so masculine too. You're surrounded by good men in both places. Congratulations for moving there! Thanks for sharing❤
Haven’t even started the video yet and I had to come say you are GLOWINGGGG🥰😍
This is so beautiful! I'm so happy you found your place. ❤
You’re such an inspiration awwlexis! Thank you for this video❤
You’re a very very pretty girl! Sending you love from Nigeria!!!❤️
You're so beautiful!! You're literally GLOWING!
I loved this video! So happy for you Alexis! You made me want to move to Dubai! You look so radiant, this is definitely the right path for you! Congrats! ✨💖🌹
Seeing you make this move is so inspiring 🥺 I've always wanted to move there but seeing you do it has made me look into it seriously and already have seen so many possible paths to do it. Thank you for sharing about your experience so openly ❤❤
Your beaming here ! Love all your thoughts on your move
Just starting the video and I can’t wait to leave a comment 😆. Much love to you. Your love is felt always. TY ❤
I'm so happy you're happy. You're definitely glowing. I love these videos.
This video is a blessing. I don’t know why, but I almost started to cry when you spoke about the waiters calling you princess during your solo dates. Thank you for sharing 💗
Girl this Dubai content is everything. I’m definitely moving. U don’t know how you’ve just confirmed it for me .
Oh my goodness Goddess! Alexis you are glowing. I have been checking every day to see if you posted something. I Love that dress. You look lovely in it!💛
Dear Alexis, I studied Orthomolecular Therapy and if you're struggling to find avocado oil, you can also use coconut oil for cooking! It does not lose it's nutritional value or become toxic when heated!

Thank you for sharing beautiful. How fascinating you studied this 😘
I love watching your series about Dubai! ❤ Listening about its culture expands my mind so much, especially about the wealth and romantic relationships. I love that standards there are so high, it’s very inspiring 🤩 And I am really happy to see you glowing!
Your glow girl is at another level!!!
Love this for you❤ this is how I felt moving from Chicago to San Diego in 2016..now in Dallas ❤
9:37 as muslims we love Mary too We literally have a whole chapter named after her in the Quran (muslim’s holy book). As a muslim girl, Mary is one of my role models, the way worshiped god and dressed modestly are inspiring me to be a better servant of god 💖💖 Give it a try and read that chapter you would love it sooo much and it will inspire you as well Love you all 💖💖💖 Here is a translation of some of it 💕 And when the angels said to Mary: 'Allah has chosen you and purified you. He has chosen you above all women of the worlds. Mary, be obedient to your Lord, prostrate and bow with those who bow. ' (43)
Sooo exciting !! ❤
So crazy that I came across this particular vid because I too am heavily thinking of Moving to Dubai from the US. And I too feel so pulled to this city. I have a visit planned soon and the goal is that it seals the deal for me and confirms how I’ve been feeling 🤞🏾
THANK YOU for making this content 🥹 I feel like this whole community is leveling up together alongside you, and I so appreciate your vulnerability/bravery to do this. My life is forever changed ❤ love you girl. God bless ❤

Alexis you have a heart of Gold, God bless you sending lots of love 🤍🤍
You look amazing! I admire your courage and am enjoying watching your journey. Thank you for sharing it with us! I have binged your videos for the last couple of weeks and at work I listen to your content over and over again. At 41, I am embarking on a new chapter in my life, along with my 3 children. The treasures I have learned from your teachings I have now passed on to them. I did not know I was in survival mode for my entire life, drowning in limiting beliefs. I am breaking the generational curses and am paving a new path for my children. They no longer see a broken, wounded mommy, but a woman overflowing in feminine energy no longer afraid to pursue her dream life. Thank you, Lord, for bringing Alexis to our lives!
Gave me goosebumps how you talked about your experience - love this Dubai era for you 10:34
When you talk about family it just gives me goosebumps (in a super good way!). I’m going to be a first time mom soon, and i just feel so connected to my feminine energy now. Everyone says that i am glowing (even before pregnancy). You, Alexis, have helped me so much with this! I’ve got to know the REAL feminine energy just because of your channel, and although at first i was slow at getting used to it, but now i shifted my mindset completely, i am more connected to God and Jesus, and i just love and enjoy life ❤🙏❤

omggggg love that dresssss❤
Alexis you look amazing! ❤
This is an awesome video Alexis. I love hearing your perspective about Dubai! I am a former flight attendant and never got to go to Dubai and it was never really on my life of places to go but now it definitely is! Thanks for sharing. I'm curious if you have any book suggestions regarding starting a business, particularly one online? Books that are less about mindset and more about "how-to". I feel like my mindset is there but I have no idea how or where to begin!
You’re so pretty ❤ love all your videos 🫶🏻
Alexis every time you post I think your gonna be in your dream apartment😭✨‼️‼️ I’m trying to be patient but I can’t wait to see‼️‼️‼️

Congratulations, babes!!! You deserve this and more! So hall to hear you are enjoying Dubai! The city looks amazing on you! 😻 I can’t wait to see you happily married with some babies 🥰🤗❤️
Im originally from LA too and moved to Dubai 11 years ago. Best decision I ever made and agree with all your points ❤
Yay!! You're from Vegas!!! I am watching this because I was genuinely interested in an American's perspective of moving to Dubai. But first, GORL U R GORGEOUS ✨ ALSO, I am living in Vegas! I am from California, but I have moved to Vegas during COVID, but now I am secretly thinking of moving to Dubai 😭 Am subscribing, love your aura 🩷
I hope you keep your faith while living there 💕
I think you made a very good decision to move! Now you’re surrounded by much more opportunity at the perfect age. I believe you’ll see soon what God is leading your way!
I just want to say thank you!!! I signed up for better help 2 days ago ( I didn’t forget to mention your channel) and I just want to remind everyone here in a glow girls community “it’s not easy but it’s OKAY TO SEEK A PROFESSIONAL HELP” when we need it 🥰🥰🥰
Alexis, I think u are convincing everyone to move to Dubai 😂❤ definitely have me interested
Wonderful Video ❤
Thank you so much 🩷
You're pretty and you have a glow❤❤
1 hr felt so fast when I'm watching you😭😭😭
Thank you so much ❤
I moved to the UAE nearly 2 years ago, and I love it! Never want to move back to the West again ❤
Can’t wait to move there now 😅❤❤❤
Love you girl! You can find avocado oil at Spinneys or Geant. And I get my vanilla extract/bean at Ripe Market ❤

Alexis I really enjoy your show. you're very amazing. I wish you can meet my daughter. She's been living in Dubai for the past 2 years and she love it there too.
You look so beautiful again ❤
Wow Alexis after rewatching this video from all your other latest videos, this was definitely not your dream apartment, I remember the first time I seen this video and I was like, wow cute place, NO your apartment is a millionaire times cuter😭😭😭💕💕💕
It feels like a dreamy place to be...
I love your enegy gooooooo girl
So happy for you! At some point could you please discuss taxes (what to consider for personal & business) as a US citizen there? What about surviving summer? 🥵 Thank you 🙏 ❤
YESSS GIRL
the covering part has me in a choke hold because that is literally what I live by
Yayyy!!!
Girll love youuuu❤❤ the vid should be at 1hour not 59.59 though lol
My love took me to Dubai and at our hotel they were calling me Mrs.(his name) I kept telling him they are speaking it into existence. Dubai is magical.
Maybe your mom can bring you a kombucha scoby when she visits you or have one mailed to you. Brewing your own kombucha is a process but you can flavor it however you want! You mostly have to be patient while it brews....And you have access to the Arabic teas to ferment for it! -Maria
For middle class or poor people from 3rd world countries, many have no option but to move and work in developed countries. They have to work there to feed the family back home. Cuz the wage is a lot higher in dubai for the same amount of work in our own country.Many will move back to homecountry after making some money there. So even if the social economic class difference is huge in dubai, they atleast give many opportunities to work. They ain't forcing anyone to work there. So it's helping many people. But yh things can be a lil more better. Maybe it will in the future. I love how u r honest about the pros and cons.

truth. these people would be starving back home but the opportunity to go abroad helps them feed and shelter their family back home.
Heya Alexis. Do you mind doing an update on this video when you have lived in Dubai for at least a year?
Just checking on you, I heard there was flooding in Dubai. Is everything okay where you are? I don't know you well, but I feel the mixed girl energy strong. 🙌🏼🙏❤🙏🙌🏼

Well in CA, NY or Miami you can find apartments at that price.
To live in Dubai is also my goal❤
Loved your video! I’m from Toronto and I am arab I went to Dubai in November I loved it and I want to move but I’m having trouble obtaining a work visa. I am a flight attendant right now love to travel I’m just over canada how did you get your work visa?
What shots did you have to take on the medical? Considering moving from Canada.
Can you explain the Visa process?
I'll definitely visit one day. Moving probably not lol Zambia has a lot of flaws but it's my home
Hey Alexis, where is your home church in Dubai?❤️
I feel like I’m not getting the full experience of Dubai like I’ll have to move down there to find out myself
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just wondering how one covers healthcare in Dubai when living there long term and not working for a traditional company that would subsidize it.
I have the same dream as you ❤
How is the social life there? Is it easy to make genuine friends? Moving to the uae soon to live with my fiancé
❤❤❤❤❤
