#Almost30nation! Hello friends! Excited to introduce you to this week’s guest. Evita Robinson founded the NOMADNESS Travel Tribe, a first-of-its-kind movement bringing together and representing the underrepresented in mainstream travel. Their mission is to show the world that travel has no racial, gender, religious, economic, or interest limitations through community representation and relevancy (like the $50,000,000 being injected into the travel industry every year).

In today’s political climate, it’s more important than ever to get out and travel, meet different people, and immerse yourself in diverse cultures. It allows us to gain perspective and see ourselves as just a part of humanity; something to keep you modest, keep you grounded, and keep you connected to what’s REAL! We love the way Evita embodies this, and we know you are all going to love her.

We discuss…

A stark view of how people of color are underrepresented in the travel industry

The highs and lows of NOMADNESS’ group travel events (but mostly highs)

How NOMADNESS came to be

Reverse culture shock: when home feels like a foreign country

How Evita approaches building a community

Navigating a new challenge + stepping into your light

How social media changed travel

Evita’s relationship with spirituality

The Airbnb experience for people of color + partnering with Airbnb

Why you need people of color in your marketing teams + HR

Creating safe + sacred spaces

What’s next for NOMADNESS: the first U.S. festival for travelers of color!
