Today’s guest is the embodiment of bold moves and beautiful journeys. Nubia Younge is a dynamic entrepreneur, travel advocate, and the visionary founder of Black in Travel and Black In Tulum—the premier community for melanated travelers. After more than a decade in corporate America, Nubia made the courageous decision to walk away and rewrite the script on her own terms, choosing a life filled with purpose, freedom, and global connection.
After an unexpected layoff, and a desire for something greater, Nubia’s journey quickly evolved into something far more powerful—a movement. From living in multiple countries to creating safe, vibrant spaces for Black travelers abroad, Nubia’s journey led her to build a thriving community that celebrates Black joy, culture, and adventure in places where it’s often been overlooked.
In this episode, we talk about the power of starting over at 40, the importance of representation in travel, how Nubia is helping thousands of Black travelers feel seen, supported, and inspired and her own remarkable path to peace. Get ready for a powerful conversation about taking the leap, building something beautiful, and living life on your own terms.
Welcome to the conversation!
