Alyne runs her Facebook group called Girls Gone Global which consists of more 139.1k female followers from all around the globe. It is a female-only group and a platform where women can talk or share any issues they like confidently and safely without any judgment, misunderstanding, and worry. In her blog, she gives travel advice on “How to survive a long flight”, “8 unusual things to do in Paris”, writes about travel stories so that others can learn from the mistakes she made and rectify them. Women from all around the world are also welcome to share their learning experiences on her blog.She also organizes retreats for her followers to teach crash courses on various topics, such as how to business 101, the anatomy of a video, the power of leverage and so many more interesting topics, held in different countries.Her most favorite video that she created so far is called “The Beauty Trap”. It is mainly about the Chinese Beauty Tradition of foot binding. Footbinding consists of breaking the feet of girls so that their feet remain small forever so that they may getbetter potential husband. The smaller the feet the better the husband. She made this video with relatable examples from all around the world. Girls go through so many things to be considered beautiful in today’s world. Plastic surgery, lip filler, skin whitening and so many more things all for the sake of beauty, resulting from the pressure that society puts on women.
She also talked about a very important social issue in a very approachable way“ Female Genital Mutilation”. In countries like Egypt, Indonesia, Nigeria, Kenya or even England they follow this barbaric tradition and ruin girls’ health. To this day this tradition is still carried out. Doctors perform such surgeries to gain money and parents allow it to ensure their daughters are accepted by the society by abiding by their religion's traditions.
Alyne wants her messages to impact people and use it to educate themselves, and then as a result they should share their stories. She considers her greatest success to be able to reach women in countries where they don’t have anyone. Her platform Girls Gone Global is a unity of women to support one another in all their hardships and happiness. Her advice to her followers would be to be patient in their journey, follow their path, and breakdown the things they want in life.
