When Melanie invited me to be a guest on her podcast I took one look at the show’s mission and wrote back with an emphatic “YES!” Aimed at sharing the stories of Black and Brown families using travel as a means to build and create a legacy for their children, you can definitely count me into that tribe! We had so much fun recording together - Melanie is a gracious host who asks really good and insightful questions. While I generally shy away from talking about myself, I enjoyed every minute of our chat - from revisiting my childhood in Jamaica to funny travel anecdotes, and how I crafted my life as an expat and entrepreneur over the last 15 years. Many thanks and big shout out to Melanie for creating this platform and giving me space to share my story. We can’t wait to share this episode.
