We finally took the time to sit down and film a video for our channels together - here's me answering your questions with ‪@aliabdaal‬ - this is a VERY rambly one, you've been warned, there's almost no cuts involved in this.
PLEASE let me know: is the fluff something I should add more of in my videos?

    haha I prefer the colour grade on yours :) loved the candid chats, let's do this more often <3
  • @Wingedmagician
    I loved how this is the perfect mix of wholesome and uncomfortable lol
  • @Thomasfrank
    Do the sleep video! I want to see your take 😁
  • @ariaalarie828
    What you think is 'fluff' are actually the good bits and makes you relatable and human. Authenticity is how we can feel more connected to you. So yes, more of it please!
  • @mohammadsk2974
    Now I believe Ali when he says he’s BAD at talking to pretty girls
  • @BrendanEvan
    Turns out Ali is a chronic transformer of med students into YouTubers
  • @yatindersingh_
    For the recoerd Elizabeth, I saw your video first and his later. Just so it helps you get over the doubt about “outgrowing him”. Definitely possible. Great content!
  • @StephaniRoberts
    So much wisdom from Ali. He’s spot on with leaving in your depth vs. editing it out Liz. Show us all of the layers of who you are. Keeping it real as you are here is so attractive! You’re gorgeous, brilliant, emotionally tuned in and so darn likable!! I can see why Ali is frustrated and a bit intimidated. He SEES your full depth and potential. He knows you’ll surpass him and legitimately feels it but you don’t seem to believe him. He respects and admires you but also sees that you’re censoring out some of the best aspects of who you are. I’d listen and I’d honestly be flattered. No idea what’s happening behind the scenes but that’s what I detect.
  • It genuinely broke my heart when Ali said the thing he hates about Elizabeth was that he feels inadequate because of the energy that she brings into a room
  • Passionate but not motivated. My life has just been described. Hallelujah!

    9:46 "When you are having fun productivity takes care of itself." This is my new favourite quote.
  • @yasimmeaa
    Ok, but I swear for the first bit of the video, it felt so emotional. Especially with the song in the background. Kinda like the two main characters were about to break up. Or they broke up and they finally met up after a long time to discuss why they broke up in the first place
  • So here's what I see in this vid. Someone who has moved on and is completely honest with the highs and lows of the work she did. With someone who still struggles with the business setup, misses the other person, has conflicted views on the current scenario but he knows he made the right call at that time.
  • @yalazha
    Love Sheen in the background not letting Ali skip a hard question!
  • @shrey768
    Why does this have divorce talk at lawyer's energy ? 😄
  • @ramo1026
    Ali's deffo behaving differently!! The connection between you guys' crazy!
  • I love watching Ali's videos and this is how I came across you. I absolutely love your bubbly personality, it shows and shines through on camera.
  • @sijanshares2695
    The fact that Elizabeth decided to make this video pure , as Ali said without cutting out extra bits of it that could have been cut out 🙌🏻🙌🏻
  • @wiktoria2474
    i didnt plan to watch the whole thing but i found it somehow very relaxing and watched till the end. I feel like you didn't edit it that much so it feels as a natural conversation. very refreshing 😌
  • @iznab4164
    I SO want @the body language guy to make an analysis of this conversation 👀💙
