Mimi, could you make a seperate video about money? You know, your thoughts about the role of money in people`s lives, about your experience with having and not having enough money. Could you live without money and stay happy? Also, it is quite interesting what do you think about money and children - should rich parents let their children make their own way in creating finantual status or should parents help them as much as possible? And thanks for the great video!
I miss these kind of videos Mimi, as someone who’s been watching you for years now I feel really disconnected from your channel. Hopefully your podcast changes that!
So much true!! I love her videos as a subbie from the start!! I know people n their life style changes.. But what about the subscribers? Atleast a single video like she is there in a week or two would be great☺❤
@@InviteTheLightReadings yeah I did mention.. People and life changes n all.. I do understand they gotta take care of their life too... But atleast a lil bit time for us would have been better.. Like I said a video for a two week .. Because other than Mimi I feel so new about the channel😂
can you go more into detail on how to always be energetic/ happy throughout the day. I am very heathy person but i still crash by noon. and always exhausted in morning
You should definitely look into your diet before anything else, if you don't already (cutting sugar, dairy, red meat etc for example does wonders to boost energy!) Mimi eats healthy, it's probably the main factor for her energy levels! Cheers
Some people are energetic by nature and Mimi seems to be that kind of person, so I don't think she does anything special to be energetic. What really helps me is getting enough sleep and actually going for a run in the morning. I also like taking walks after lunch, because I know that crash very well 😉 And one very important thing that could help you be more energetic and especially happy, is actually having a life that excites you. That makes you jump out of bed in the morning, because you can't wait for your day start. But obvisouly creating that kind of Life isn't easy...
ivi122 because unfortunately social studies show you and all the others, who liked this comment are minority. Google social studies on this topic and you will see the unfortunate reality. Women are called bossy/pushy for the exact behavior men are called leaders.
I will not lie, I found the bossy assumptions quite strange! I feel like In so many videos you’re always allowing Alex to choose places you’re going, things you’re doing, or seeming so laid back. Regardless, you’re so kind hearted!!! Love you & Alex so much & currently obsessed with your podcast! Xo
Probably my fav video from you Mimi! you answered a lot of potentially controversial questions or topics straight on! I think THIS video was actually your most honest and vulnerable video up to date! In the video you shared with us you were confused as to why people may assume you are never vulnerable. I remember you sharing with us that one video talking about your history with anxiety, and yes you showed tears but the frustration for us as viewers was that you were fully went into detail of exactly what happened so it was hard for me to connect and relate .. and I know you don't OWE US any specific information from your life and the trauma you experienced in your past nobody should force that upon you. Just simply explaining crying in front of the camera doesn't equal vulnerability... sharing a hard story to tell is (eg - Chriselle Lim sharing her miscarriage story, Valeria Lipovetsky taking us through her journey in meeting her biological father I found really vulnerable videos because we got an insight of a detailed story). However, THIS VIDEO was indeed raw and so honest :) I enjoyed every minute of it!
WOW some comments are brutal. I just want to remind everyone that we are all constantly evolving and changing your mind about something you once said or believed in is totally normal. The fact that she is being real and answering these assumptions as honest as possible takes courage and just because she changes her mind doesn’t mean she is fake or living a fake life. Love you and your family Mimi much love from sunny Florida!
Wow, perfect timing! Just got home from a successful and positive day, sat down to mentally unwind and enjoy a snack, and am lucky enough to have my favourite role model upload a video! So happy! It's the simple things in life :)
I wish you could talk more about how you can not be too sensitive. For those of us whose life has been affected by this trait of being too sensitive and easily hurt
Mimi, I enjoyed learning more about you 😊. I wonder if people meant assertive rather than aggressive. I can't imagine you being aggressive but you do seem assertive, which is a good thing in my book.❤
I struggle with jealousy A LOT and it's something i've been working on as well. I've always felt so guilty about it... but It doesn't mean you're with the wrong person sometimes it's just a battle within yourself. Thanks for sharing your life with us! x
Wow this is so honest of you. I don't really suffer with jealousy normally but I actually stopped watching Mimi because I was becoming envious of her beautiful life of traveling. So your not the only one on that. I find it helps to know our weaknesses and then try to make some changes about it.
I knew something had happened in your childhood that affected you and Leyla so much. Usually the people who takes this path of too much meditation, trying to stay positive and promoting this kind of things so much, have some dark moments in their past. Not that is anything wrong with meditating.. and I wish you you and Leyla all the best.
I love your honesty Mimi! It's funny how people can demand honest content, but when it's given to them, they don't like the answers. There will always be something for them to judge. You are an amazing, hardworking and kind person. I will always look up to you even if you change the way you do things a million times. We aren't meant to be stagnant anyways. If something isn't serving you, why stick with it?
If balance scares you then it would be hard to achieve it. Balance attracts me and makes me happy - so I look for more ways of bringing it into my life. Although, a lot of times things get chaotic and unbalanced and I'm comfortable with that as well.
I haven't worn/bought leather in over 10 years as well. Never had problems with my feet or the shoes I bought. They always last me many, many seasons. Don't let water or cold in. Also, they are much, much cheaper than leather as she mentioned but I never had problems with quality. Also the deisgn of the shoes I chose is very simple, clean and minimalistic (not tacky). And lastly, I don't like shopping and spending too much time shopping and I never spent too much time looking for good non-leather shoes. Despite this I never had the issues mentioned by Mimi. I guess this is one of the stories people tell themselves to do what they wanted to do in the first place.
" I guess this is one of the stories people tell themselves to do what they wanted to do in the first place." This is very judgemental and also quite unhelpful. If you know any stores that provide high quality cruely- free shoes why not sharing the brands? Let's be more loving and supporting
It also depends upon the size and shape of your feet. For some people, shoes degrade faster especially if they wear it a lot. You cant assume everything is fine for others just because you aren't affected.
soonsims It's great that vegan shoes work for you, but you have to understand that it might not work for everybody. I would like to stop wearing leather shoes, but it is already hard for me to find comfortable shoes, because I have very sensitive feet. It doesn't matter how expansive the shoes are. There are just a lot that I can't wear and maybe it's the same for Mimi...
I had respect for you and your comment UNTIL the last sentence,judgemental and brutal. Just because something doesn't affect u, doesn't mean it won't affect anybody else.
It all depends on the person wearing them and the environment their shoes are exposed to. Living in London where the weather is always cold, rainy and the summers get very dry and hot, it’s difficult for non leather shoes to last at all. Also people walk everywhere in London and usually through tubes, buses and crowds, it’ll be a miracle to keep non leather shoes free from wear and tear. I spent 5 years doing lab research and creating alternative materials for leather products and I definitely wouldn’t use them for shoes!
I love your talking videos, Mimi! I used to be so inspired by you, you really gave me a lot few years ago. Glad that you still doing things like that. You are a beautiful person (on the inside and on the outside).
Why does it scare you? To me, it's natural that people would assume things about me - whether positive or negative. At the end of the day it's about loving and accepting yourself, regardless of what others think about you.
I love your honesty and insight, Mimi! I've been watching your videos since I was in college and I was looking for new ways to style my hair. Now, years later, it's so wonderful that I've grown and you have too. You're a wonderful spirit in this world
Mimi, thank you so much for coming back. Weird... because you never left but you look genuinely happier now and I can feel your presence :) Also, WHERE ARE YOUR EARRINGS FROM?!
Thank you for putting in the time to answer these questions and engaging with your audience. I've been watching videos on your channel as well Alex's for a couple of years now. I took a break for a couple of months, but now I'm back to watching your videos. You guys are awesome; always so thoughtful and caring. I'm a huge podcast listener 'cause I feel like listening to conversations since I don't get to talk to people as much as I'd like.
What do you wear around the house? Alex’s t shirt? Or is that just what you sleep in? Like if you’re just chilling around the house all day and not going anywhere what do you wear? I usually wear pjs or leggings/yoga pants. I don’t get all dressed up if I’m staying home for the day. I find it so uncomfortable to wear jeans around the house.
00 aa that wants passive aggressive, idk what you’re talking about. I’m genuinely curious as to if she wear Alex’s shirts around the house or if she gets dressed up everyday even if she’s not going anywhere. It seems from her ig stories that she gets dressed up everyday. I’m not sure why you think this was a passive aggressive question.
00 aa well you must have misread this. I actually really like Mimi. I’ve followed her for for probably about 8 years now, since Luxy Hair first started. I’m not agitated at all! Why would I be agitated about what Mimi wears in her house? Lol it was just a question. You do seem a bit agitated though. Sorry to get you all worked up! I am definitely not a hater.
Dear Mimi, would you do a video talking about the fashion industry covering sustainability, ethical choices, including animals’s lives etc. Would be so great and inspiring to hearing your opinion! Love u ☺️
Mimi, I’ve been watching you for so many years now, and I don’t think I ever realized you’re a Leo! I’m also a Leo, born August 19th. I’m also called bossy sometimes, but I see it more as being a good leader. I also started listening to your podcast with Alex and I’m loving it!!
Such an amazing video! My favourite part is how you acknowledge some of your characteristics and then you mention how you are mindful of them and have evolved over time!
Mimi’s a QUEEN, I love this woman and truly believe what you see is what you get. Glowing example it’s possible to live true, clean, healthy and be happy doing it. She does the work! Mimi-how much have you seen of U.S.? I’d love to see you travel and explore more of the states (not NY/LA/Miami) There are lots of things to experience in other states. love from Ohio
Hi Mimi, so there is just one thing I am really courius about: Do you ever watch or read the news? I just wonder because I never read or watch them and when something really tragic or important happens it‘s my husband who will tell me. I just think it influences our minds soo much and that‘s why I don‘t do it. So I wonder if I‘m the only one thinking like this
I feel kind of guilty for not doing so, but I never read the news either. It just doesn't really affect the way I would live my day to day, I try to be nice and fair to others and to be mindful of the things I do (being vegetarian, reducing my waste, etc). Sometimes I feel like very ignorant because I don't know the full picture of current events, but it really reduces my level of anxiety and negativity to avoid that.
Fernanda O. Yes same here, it already happend that I said that once to my coworkers who are much older than me & they told me that‘s an ignorant way of living. I didn‘t rly care bc it‘s an other genration. But I stoped reading the news when I got pregnant in 2015 and I didn‘t miss it since. It influences my feelings and my mind so much (&I am very sensitive) so I prefer to live MY live without reading everyday about all the negative things that happens...
Hi Mimi! It would be very useful if you, or Alex or both (hehe 😊) could make a video on facing business problems and failed projects (like this shoe line)! LuxyHair and Intelligent Change have inspired me so much to be an entrepreneur! I would love to be able to learn from your successes as well as your ''fails'' (to call it somehow, because I truly believe that we never fail but LEARN!). Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring us ❤️ love from Barcelona!
OMG I was just thinking that too! And I bet the people who assumed that about her are women too. We need to be more supportive and uplifting of each other
Love all the positive energy from you each and every time! You really make such a beautiful impact on my life, whether it's from here on your youtube channel, from social media, or, from your podcast, I always take away something positve. xoxoxoxo
I personally love wearing leather anything but I also have many faux leather boots that have lasted me for years and they are not ugly. You have to take care of them.
So right about the leather situation! Non-leather shoes are usually made of polyurethane which is not exactly biodegradable or environmentally friendly, and they definitely don’t last as long as leather products therefore creating so much more waste
Same with leather Mimi. I was/am passionate about being cruelty free. I purchased so many synthetic material shoes only to have them fail and put in the back burner. I realized what an negative environmental impact this was causing. And as I age my wide flat feet can no longer tolerate a shoe that is not flexible and eventually doesn't contours to my feet. I have purchased only versitile essential leather shoes that will last many many years and will not need replacing. One pair of walking boots, winter boots, dressy shoes, flats, and sandals. By purchasing quality shoes they will hold up for many years and will not need to be replaced. However, you're still using makeup items that aren't cruelty free Mimi! There are soooooo many alternatives so please please give your money to and support the brands that do no testing on animals (if they sell in China then they do test on animals despite what they claim)!
Love this video, I've been watching you for years. I love how open and honest this video is, please make your what I eat in a day videos again, loved them
I really enjoyed this Mimi and your answers. You answered all straight from the heart❤️ Some of those questions are hard questions for people to be honest about. Just shows what an open minded person you are to people. And I agree about friends. It’s really hard to juggle a lot of friends with everything on ones plate. Sometimes less is more. You treasure the little things in life. 😘
I wouldn't say you're a like a mean boss or super bossy at all. I would instead say that you're an excellent leader. A boss and a leader are 2 very different things. And you are a leader to me. Although, yes by nature you may seem more of that bossy but I think that's more of how people perceive you. They literally assume that you're bossy, mean, domimant etc. I say all this because I'm an Aries and people think the same about me. And yes I will admit, by nature I'm very bossy, and all these other things but I need to have a balance and it's also things I'm still currently working on :) I love you! Loved your video
On the topic of leather, for those who are concerned about the impact it has - you could opt for leather that comes from food animals instead of those that are skinned (for lack of a better word) with the intention of making apparel. That way you know it doesn't go to waste - people are eating them anyway. And I agree, it's more sustainable in the long run to wear something of good quality that you can get a lot of wear out of.
It really spoke to me when you talked about money and how you get money when you add value to the world, you gain value when you give value to the world 💖
I liked it ! You are so genuine! Thank you for sharing and I am so grateful that I rediscovered your channel ❤️ and I also listened to your podcast with Alex it gave me hope that everything is possible
Mimi, I've been watching your channel for almost four years. And I can see that you are a lovely, lovely girl, and that's why I've continued to watch. Always get excited when you post a video as I know I'm going to enjoy. Love to see you, Alexa, and beautiful little Alexa. Love your travel vlogs! You have created such an interesting and inspiring channel. And don't get too hung up over assumptions.xx 😄
I love your honesty on friendship. To have a few close friends is so much more fulfilling to me as well rather than a huge amount of catty gossipy girl groups lol!
Can you make a video of why you block or delete so many nice people that follow you on instagram that mostly comment nice things about you and support you and if they are honest one time and you don’t like there comment you block them from your account? You did that to me and many other bloggers and girls I know. It seems dishonest and weird like you really get upset at little comments and need to learn to control and be less impulsive and accept good and helpful comments. Good and bad criticism always makes us grow
The only reason I ever block or delete comments is if when they are insulting me. I have zero tolerance for cyber bullying, insults and spreading lies about me.
Mimi Ikonn strange bc I never did that. I am not a bully I have cancer and I am a mom with two kids fighting this horrific desease.. The list I would do is to bully anyone.the only thing i said but that your coconut oil was too expensive for many people that can not afford it. That is not bullying. I assume you didn’t want other seeing that so sorry I mention that. I am going through a lot so this is the last time I watch any of your videos. No one knows the pain and horror of cancer specially when having little kids so I am not wasting my time in this none sense and will focus on real positive people of love and faith. Wish you good luck. You are still a nice person to many and an amazing mom.
regarding non-leather shoes (and in general non-animal clothing goods) the manufacturing process is often also costly for the environment in addition to the fact that Mimi mentions regarding their short durability.
Mimi!!! Te amo mujer divina...thank u for always inspiring me to be the best version of myself. You're a great mentor, like the big sister I never had.
Oh my goodness! Aggressive?! How? I watch your videos whenever I want to have a calm, relaxing, positive experience. Maybe your confidence is intimidating but I like seeing women like myself being real. Keep sharing your awesome & honest content!
I feel like you would be such a great life coach or therapist :) love you so much! Love your outlook on life and mindset! Have been watching your channel for many years and have always been inspired by you! These video styles are my favorite!
Loved this video Mimi! Even though I’ve been following you for years I actually learned so many new things about you! Feeling inspired to do my own assumptions video too🕺🏻
I agree on the shoes, I would love to wear non leather shoes but they are just crap as you say, in the spring and summer it's so easy, you can wear whatever but in winter when there is frost and lots of snow you need to have like really good shoes unless you want to have water in your shoes...
Yay thanks! Questions; since you are so full of energy, do you sleep well or have insomnia and how long do you normally sleep? Also, you know now we're curious what your next level of a dream life looks like!? Thanks for reminding me to be grateful!
If there are things that you do intentionally on a regular basis to increase your energy or ensure you are energetic, I would love to see a video on that!
Non leather shoes negatively impact the health of your feet? Lol are you serious?? I never wore leather shoes and my feet are perfectly fine. I think money made you a little bit disconnected with reality
I agree. Non leather shoes do not absorb sweat, are not as flexible and do not last as much as leather shoes, they also (most of the time) look and feel cheap.
Mimi, could you make a seperate video about money? You know, your thoughts about the role of money in people`s lives, about your experience with having and not having enough money. Could you live without money and stay happy? Also, it is quite interesting what do you think about money and children - should rich parents let their children make their own way in creating finantual status or should parents help them as much as possible? And thanks for the great video!
I would also be very interested to hear her stories and thoughts on this!
That would be a very interesting video. Especially for the kids, I am thinking about the same in the last months.
Wonderful topic to talk about :) Will definitely make a video or podcast episode on this ;)
@@MimiIkonn can't wait, I already listened to all of the episodes, so inspiring! ❤

Wow it sounds like you have a healthy relationship with most aspects of your life! That’s such a great accomplishment, probably the most important!

It's the result of constant inner work
Hi Mimi, can you make a video about what inner work is and how you go about creating these healthy thought patterns and healthy relationships?

Mimi please do an updated morning routine, if you feel inspired to 😘
Yes, coming soon- Evening and Morning Routines.

Great topic for a video :)
If you were a man no one would call you “bossy”... you’re an independent-minded strong woman!

This video tag scares me I don’t think I could do it. My anxiety would be through the roof
Cause you are trying to be controlling over your emotions. If you let them flow naturally your anxiety would not be there
I wouldn't be able to either, I was surprised at how honest she was!

00 aa well you must have misread this. I actually really like Mimi. I’ve followed her for for probably about 8 years now, since Luxy Hair first started. I’m not agitated at all! Why would I be agitated about what Mimi wears in her house? Lol it was just a question. You do seem a bit agitated though. Sorry to get you all worked up! I am definitely not a hater.
I did not think you were very touchy. I assumed you were very germ conscious. I’m glad you love on Alexa❤️
Mimi I love your hair in this video! Nice to know you a little bit better, following you for years now!
Thank you dear Hilal
You are lovely Mimi period! I can totally relate to the hyperactive creative mind. The struggle is real! lol This should be your next video topic! Xx
Dear Mimi, would you do a video talking about the fashion industry covering sustainability, ethical choices, including animals’s lives etc. Would be so great and inspiring to hearing your opinion! Love u ☺️
Mimi, I’ve been watching you for so many years now, and I don’t think I ever realized you’re a Leo! I’m also a Leo, born August 19th. I’m also called bossy sometimes, but I see it more as being a good leader. I also started listening to your podcast with Alex and I’m loving it!!
Such an amazing video! My favourite part is how you acknowledge some of your characteristics and then you mention how you are mindful of them and have evolved over time!
Dose she still work with luxy hair
Mimi’s a QUEEN, I love this woman and truly believe what you see is what you get. Glowing example it’s possible to live true, clean, healthy and be happy doing it. She does the work!
Mimi-how much have you seen of U.S.? I’d love to see you travel and explore more of the states (not NY/LA/Miami) There are lots of things to experience in other states. love from Ohio
Hi Mimi, so there is just one thing I am really courius about: Do you ever watch or read the news? I just wonder because I never read or watch them and when something really tragic or important happens it‘s my husband who will tell me. I just think it influences our minds soo much and that‘s why I don‘t do it. So I wonder if I‘m the only one thinking like this
I feel kind of guilty for not doing so, but I never read the news either. It just doesn't really affect the way I would live my day to day, I try to be nice and fair to others and to be mindful of the things I do (being vegetarian, reducing my waste, etc). Sometimes I feel like very ignorant because I don't know the full picture of current events, but it really reduces my level of anxiety and negativity to avoid that.
Fernanda O. Yes same here, it already happend that I said that once to my coworkers who are much older than me & they told me that‘s an ignorant way of living. I didn‘t rly care bc it‘s an other genration. But I stoped reading the news when I got pregnant in 2015 and I didn‘t miss it since. It influences my feelings and my mind so much (&I am very sensitive) so I prefer to live MY live without reading everyday about all the negative things that happens...
No she doesn’t watch or read news. She mentioned this a while ago in her video.
Been watching your videos for years and couldn’t be happier you guys have a podcast now! Just wanted to say how much I’m loving it rn
Hi Mimi! It would be very useful if you, or Alex or both (hehe 😊) could make a video on facing business problems and failed projects (like this shoe line)! LuxyHair and Intelligent Change have inspired me so much to be an entrepreneur! I would love to be able to learn from your successes as well as your ''fails'' (to call it somehow, because I truly believe that we never fail but LEARN!). Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring us ❤️ love from Barcelona!
Matt and Nat make good vegan shoes!
Omg this video's so cute
OMG I was just thinking that too! And I bet the people who assumed that about her are women too. We need to be more supportive and uplifting of each other
Am I the only one who wants a london vlog 💙
Love all the positive energy from you each and every time! You really make such a beautiful impact on my life, whether it's from here on your youtube channel, from social media, or, from your podcast, I always take away something positve. xoxoxoxo
I personally love wearing leather anything but I also have many faux leather boots that have lasted me for years and they are not ugly. You have to take care of them.
So right about the leather situation! Non-leather shoes are usually made of polyurethane which is not exactly biodegradable or environmentally friendly, and they definitely don’t last as long as leather products therefore creating so much more waste
Please do a closet tour! We would love to see how many items you have and what type of pieces you invest in
I feel that sometimes it is also important to let out negative emotions. 😌
Same with leather Mimi. I was/am passionate about being cruelty free. I purchased so many synthetic material shoes only to have them fail and put in the back burner. I realized what an negative environmental impact this was causing. And as I age my wide flat feet can no longer tolerate a shoe that is not flexible and eventually doesn't contours to my feet. I have purchased only versitile essential leather shoes that will last many many years and will not need replacing. One pair of walking boots, winter boots, dressy shoes, flats, and sandals. By purchasing quality shoes they will hold up for many years and will not need to be replaced. However, you're still using makeup items that aren't cruelty free Mimi! There are soooooo many alternatives so please please give your money to and support the brands that do no testing on animals (if they sell in China then they do test on animals despite what they claim)!
Love this video, I've been watching you for years. I love how open and honest this video is, please make your what I eat in a day videos again, loved them
I really enjoyed this Mimi and your answers. You answered all straight from the heart❤️ Some of those questions are hard questions for people to be honest about. Just shows what an open minded person you are to people. And I agree about friends. It’s really hard to juggle a lot of friends with everything on ones plate. Sometimes less is more. You treasure the little things in life. 😘
I wouldn't say you're a like a mean boss or super bossy at all. I would instead say that you're an excellent leader. A boss and a leader are 2 very different things. And you are a leader to me. Although, yes by nature you may seem more of that bossy but I think that's more of how people perceive you. They literally assume that you're bossy, mean, domimant etc. I say all this because I'm an Aries and people think the same about me. And yes I will admit, by nature I'm very bossy, and all these other things but I need to have a balance and it's also things I'm still currently working on :) I love you! Loved your video
On the topic of leather, for those who are concerned about the impact it has - you could opt for leather that comes from food animals instead of those that are skinned (for lack of a better word) with the intention of making apparel. That way you know it doesn't go to waste - people are eating them anyway. And I agree, it's more sustainable in the long run to wear something of good quality that you can get a lot of wear out of.
I am curious as to what damage was done to your feet by wearing non-leather? I love your channel and appreciate all you bring to us.
You seem more relaxed with yourself as compared to the last few years of watching you! 💕💕
I love you so much Mimi and your personality, thanks for making us a part of your life and for sharing all your secrets to us 💓
It really spoke to me when you talked about money and how you get money when you add value to the world, you gain value when you give value to the world 💖
I liked it ! You are so genuine! Thank you for sharing and I am so grateful that I rediscovered your channel ❤️ and I also listened to your podcast with Alex it gave me hope that everything is possible
Mimi, I've been watching your channel for almost four years. And I can see that you are a lovely, lovely girl, and that's why I've continued to watch. Always get excited when you post a video as I know I'm going to enjoy. Love to see you, Alexa, and beautiful little Alexa. Love your travel vlogs! You have created such an interesting and inspiring channel. And don't get too hung up over assumptions.xx 😄
Thanks for just being real and honest! Refreshing and comforting in some way to watch 😊❤
Love your honest and raw answers here, Mimi! Such a fun video :)
The camera you used for the first part of the video is superior in quality. Is the first one Canon G7x? What is the second one?
Blue Sky I actually wouldn’t be surprised if the first one was a DSLR, probably Canon t7i and then she probably switched to Canon G7x :)
I love your honesty on friendship. To have a few close friends is so much more fulfilling to me as well rather than a huge amount of catty gossipy girl groups lol!
I love you n Alex, you are the first UA-camr I started watching and instantly clicked. Love your positive vibes.
I just realised how much I missed listening to you ❤️ thank you for posting this!
Can you make a video of why you block or delete so many nice people that follow you on instagram that mostly comment nice things about you and support you and if they are honest one time and you don’t like there comment you block them from your account? You did that to me and many other bloggers and girls I know. It seems dishonest and weird like you really get upset at little comments and need to learn to control and be less impulsive and accept good and helpful comments. Good and bad criticism always makes us grow
truee
The only reason I ever block or delete comments is if when they are insulting me. I have zero tolerance for cyber bullying, insults and spreading lies about me.
Mimi Ikonn strange bc I never did that. I am not a bully I have cancer and I am a mom with two kids fighting this horrific desease.. The list I would do is to bully anyone.the only thing i said but that your coconut oil was too expensive for many people that can not afford it. That is not bullying. I assume you didn’t want other seeing that so sorry I mention that. I am going through a lot so this is the last time I watch any of your videos. No one knows the pain and horror of cancer specially when having little kids so I am not wasting my time in this none sense and will focus on real positive people of love and faith. Wish you good luck. You are still a nice person to many and an amazing mom.
Sierra Jameson thank you so much! God bless you!!!
@@elifloret I hope you get better! She may have also done it by accident and not remember! Just thought I would mention it! It can happen...
regarding non-leather shoes (and in general non-animal clothing goods) the manufacturing process is often also costly for the environment in addition to the fact that Mimi mentions regarding their short durability.
Love you Mimi! Your videos bring me joy every time.
Can we get more “what I eat in a day videos” pretty please 🥺 FYI you’re so amazing !
I don’t have a lot of friends either. Med school takes up all my time 😂
You are such a huge inspiration! And so young!
This was good. I enjoyed this one.
Omg you answer my queation 😀😀😀 thanks for the fun video Mimi! It will be great a part two 👀
Beautiful blouse! 😍
You are a freak of nature! I mean that in the nicest way possible.
Mimi Ikonn do you really say prayers every single day
I really enjoyed this Mimi 💞👠💄 your a classy lady . Wish you and your family love and happiness 💟
Mimi!!! Te amo mujer divina...thank u for always inspiring me to be the best version of myself. You're a great mentor, like the big sister I never had.
Oh my goodness! Aggressive?! How? I watch your videos whenever I want to have a calm, relaxing, positive experience. Maybe your confidence is intimidating but I like seeing women like myself being real. Keep sharing your awesome & honest content!
lets be honest mimi
30 minutes of Mimi, thanks soooo much! :) you made my day! xx from Germany
Assumptions video pt2 please, thanks mimi!
I feel like you would be such a great life coach or therapist :) love you so much! Love your outlook on life and mindset! Have been watching your channel for many years and have always been inspired by you! These video styles are my favorite!
You look the most natural in this video.
I love how honest you are ❤️
Oh I wish I saw the announcement on Insta 😊 Great video!
Nice to see you Mimi .!! The way Alex n u speak inspires me to grow personally n professionally .!! More videos please n this time with Alexa!!
Loved this video Mimi! Even though I’ve been following you for years I actually learned so many new things about you! Feeling inspired to do my own assumptions video too🕺🏻
I agree on the shoes, I would love to wear non leather shoes but they are just crap as you say, in the spring and summer it's so easy, you can wear whatever but in winter when there is frost and lots of snow you need to have like really good shoes unless you want to have water in your shoes...
Yay thanks! Questions; since you are so full of energy, do you sleep well or have insomnia and how long do you normally sleep?
Also, you know now we're curious what your next level of a dream life looks like!?
Thanks for reminding me to be grateful!
That title, hilarious I gotta watch this, ❤️ you Mimi!! More videos on being successful, living your best life, relationships, fashion, please! :)
If there are things that you do intentionally on a regular basis to increase your energy or ensure you are energetic, I would love to see a video on that!
I loved this video!! Xx
Non leather shoes negatively impact the health of your feet? Lol are you serious?? I never wore leather shoes and my feet are perfectly fine. I think money made you a little bit disconnected with reality
You can make whatever assumptions you decide about others. Ultimately, it doesn't change the reality of the situation. Love and Peace to you.
@@MimiIkonn that's not an answer. When you were in Azerbaijan did you and your family wore only leather shoes? Be honest
@@MimiIkonn I agree about leather. I wear leather shoes because it is more practice and adapt to feet. And can wear not one season 😏
@@sarizer Stop getting smart with her! Get off her channel! OMG! Please... go far away!!!!
I agree. Non leather shoes do not absorb sweat, are not as flexible and do not last as much as leather shoes, they also (most of the time) look and feel cheap.
I really miss your videos. I use to wait and keep checking your profile because of your volgs and talking videos.
Please be consistent 💐
Love you.
I really like your videos, because I alway feel more motivated after watching them. 😃
I love your personality Mimi😍😍😍😍 sending kisses from Nigeria😘😘
also leather free doesnt always mean low quality. Ive had shoes for years that are leather free..you just have to take care of them
Piinkstar17 this is very true
I love you. this made my day. your honesty's so good
You are sooo mee 😁, I could predict almost all your answers on what type of person you are cause you are me... love you even more! 😍
