Travel has always been one of my most trusted reset rituals; not as escape from life, but as space within it. Space to slow down, gain perspective, and reconnect with yourself outside of routine, expectation, and noise.
Intentional Escapes is a personalized travel design service for those who want their time away to feel meaningful, grounding, and aligned. Whether you’re entering a new chapter, navigating a transition, or simply craving rest that actually restores you, this offering is designed with care and discernment.
Drawing on my background in travel planning and my work around identity, reinvention, and clarity, I curate travel experiences that prioritize flow, presence, and spaciousness; not packed itineraries or performative travel.
This is not about doing more.
It’s about going somewhere with intention.

Hey, hey! I’m Marnita Joy - a creator, writer, podcaster, and founder with over 15 years of experience navigating entrepreneurship, reinvention, and personal growth. My work centers on helping women move through identity shifts with clarity, intention, and self-trust — without pressure to perform or rush the process.
Through writing, consultations, and mentorship, I offer thoughtful perspectives shaped by lived experience, strategic insight, and a deep respect for personal evolution. I believe reinvention doesn’t require starting over. It requires refinement, honesty, and the courage to choose differently when a new season arrives.
