the reality of living in mexico city as a Black woman | 1 year later

a little over a year ago, i packed my bags and took a leap from new york city to mexico city. starting this new chapter, i wasn’t sure what to expect, but i knew my life was craving something different. i was yearning for a deeper connection to self, a new environment to grow in, and the kind of life that felt more aligned with rest, peace, and slow living.

living in cdmx has been beautiful, complicated, eye-opening, and full of lessons. i’ve built community, learned to navigate a new culture, a new language, and deepened my wellness journey. then there’s been the hard stuff like learning who i am when no one knows me, filtering out the noise of thee internet, and processing what it means to take up space as a Black woman in Mexico.

i'm sharing the real experience. what it’s actually been like to live here, how i’ve been taking care of myself, and what I’m looking forward to next (hint: hosting a wellness retreat and writing my first book ✨)

moving to a new country, adjusting to new foods, and keeping my body balanced has been a journey in itself, which is why i created my 3-day gut detox program to help reset and nourish your body. if you’ve been feeling off, sluggish, or just want a reset, this is for you.

check out my wellness e-books on gut health, emotional eating and plant-based eating.

i hope this video gives you an honest look into my life here—where i've been, what i’ve learned, and where i’m heading next. if you’ve ever thought about moving abroad, starting fresh, or just living a life that feels more you, i hope this reminds you that it’s possible.

talk to me in the comments! i like to talk back and i wanna hear your thoughts, experiences, or questions about living in mexico city, wellness, or anything else on your mind. and if you’re new here, subscribe for more conversations about travel, wellness, and living with intention.
