  • I am excited to be heading to @synergyretreatshow in Croatia this week, a country I adore and have returned to roughly 20 times now.

It is the only trade show dedicated to wellness travel and I can’t wait to experience this transformative community - https://www.theretreatshow.com/

Beyond meeting some incredible partners, companies, and facilitators within the travel wellness snd retreat space, as invited media, I’ll have the opportunity to (in their words):

- Disconnect to reconnect

- Connect to my intention

- Let go and let in

- Inspire and be inspired

- Let connection spark creation

- Flow into my creativity

- Step into presence

Everything my brand, purpose, and life mantra are all about, so needless to say, I’m thrilled. You can learn more here -> https://www.theretreatshow.com/

  • Two weeks ago, during a packed event for the South African book community, I was asked by one of my wonderful book fans when I will start writing about (in my words) Black women frolicking through fields of butterflies.

I promised her that I would. But as long as there are still themes we haven't explored enough in fiction, I will keep bringing those to the fore.

Barely two weeks later, at least nine (9) women have been found dead in a span of days sparking renewed fear and a global outcry on violence against women - https://lnkd.in/eCewSzH2

I had been planning an indulgent post filled with gratitude about just how incredible the book tour in collaboration with @jonathanballpublishers x @glamour_sa, and @openbookfest Book Festival (it was amazing!) but in light of this heartbreaking news against women coming out of South Africa on the heels of a book tour specifically highlighting the plight of women, I will share a summary much later down the line.

Right now, please get up to speed with this story 💔 

As for writing stories about Black women frolicking through fields of butterflies, more on that soon... I promise.

  • It was an absolute pleasure going on the Amsterdam Afro-Diaspora Art Tour – Zuidoost Stories & Studio Visit led by @gracia.tenda in collaboration with @womenintravel_cic and supported by @tuicarefoundation.

I got to experience a different, more intimate and diverse side of Amsterdam while learning more about its specific African and Surinamese heritage.

Book this special tour next time you’re in town ❤️ -> https://www.womenintravelcic.com/entrepreneurship/women-led-tours/amsterdam-afro-diaspora-art-tour/

Here’s more information:

This small-group tour takes you inside Afro-diasporic museums, heritage spaces, public art, murals and working studios that many visitors never find on their own. Along the way, you’ll hear powerful stories of identity, migration and creativity, enjoy a Surinamese-Indonesian coffee break with Dawet, and meet a Congolese artist shaping Amsterdam’s contemporary art scene.
