From Diaspora to Discovery: Healing, Heritage, and the Power of Travel (w/ Nandi Kaye)

From Diaspora to Discovery: Healing, Heritage, and the Power of Travel (w/ Nandi Kaye)

In this episode of Conversations from the Diaspora, I’m joined by Nandi Kaye, travel and self-discovery enthusiast and founder of Nature is Balm. Over the last 15 years, she has traveled to nine African countries and now curates holistic cultural birthright experiences to Senegal and The Gambia.

We talk about her personal journey of reconnecting with the continent despite not having direct family ties, how travel can be a tool for healing and identity-building, and what it means to create safe, intentional spaces for members of the African diaspora to experience belonging.

From her background in criminal justice reform to her mission of bridging community and self-discovery, this conversation reminds us that travel isn’t just about movement — it’s about memory, healing, and reimagining Black joy.
