I am so impressed with the wisdom such a young person, in my eyes, can possess. This young women is and will make a big impact in the world without a doubt! She shared how her upbringing made a big impact in her earlier years. Alexis also talked about the impact her parents made in her life. I loved how she had so much respect for her parents but when a crossroads came in her life and her parents were not on board, she turned to fasting and prayer and let God do the rest.
Alexis shares about the year of traveling to five different countries and how that experience has made a lasting impact on her. She shares in details about some of those crossroad experiences and the amazing story of how a homeless man was the first investor of the business Unlocked!
