Hi, I am Dr. Willyetta Mitchell, a transformative travel coach. My journey began with a deep love for travel, cultivated through cherished experiences with my late mother. My mother planted the seeds of travel as we explored the world together, creating memories that shaped my life's purpose. After 27 years of teaching, the seeds of travel finally took root during my time as a STEM Director in a rural school, where a toxic work environment under an ineffective principal led to a devastating diagnosis of occipital neuropathy. Then, the pandemic came, and my mother passed away at the onset of the pandemic; my world turned upside down. Grief consumed me, and my family's move to rural Louisiana only compounded the challenges I faced.
Personal setbacks and a debilitating injury left me searching for solace. While planning a special anniversary cruise to Alaska, I discovered my passion for creating unforgettable travel experiences. Although the trip didn't go as planned, it began a newfound determination to help others avoid similar pitfalls and maximize the joy of their adventures.
For years, I have organized field trips, family reunions, and church outings, weaving my love for bringing people together through travel into every experience. Inspired by the transformative power of exploration, I launched my travel agency on my mother's birthday in 2020, turning my passion into a profession.
As I continued evolving in the travel industry, I began creating unique and exclusive experiences transcending conventional travel. I moved to a rural town and recognized the need for an approach encompassing guidance, discounts, and personal growth. I began offering monthly online healing circles, travel coaching sessions, and curated retreats, workshops, and events, nurturing a sense of sisterhood and empowerment among modern women healing from life traumas.
Today, my mission is to educate and empower others, especially women, to embrace the wonder of travel while providing a supportive community for personal growth and self-discovery. Through my travel agency and curated experiences, I strive to honor my mother's memory by helping others find solace and transformation through the magic of exploration.
