We’re starting the season with a bang—meet the Billionaire Matchmaker shaking up Dubai’s luxury dating scene!

In this debut episode of Your Luxe Lifestyle Podcast, Isabella Garofanelli sits down with Christiana Maxion, the powerhouse behind an exclusive matchmaking empire for high-net-worth individuals craving real connections.

What began with her viral "Dating in Dubai" account turned into a full-blown movement—making Christiana the first public Western matchmaker in Dubai, offering bespoke packages (including a $350,000 billionaire experience!). Now, she’s taking it even further with Maxion, a next-generation app that curates real dates, not just endless swipes.

Get ready for a fresh, unfiltered take on love, luxury, and building a global brand.
