The Way You Think Now

Included with the course

Not extras. Practice.
Interactive moments, for the situations that are hard to picture until you have been in them.

Bonus

Real Situations, Real Decisions

Interactive moments you step into and decide your way through, so the first time is not the real time.

  • The hand that keeps coming back
  • The reservation that cannot be found
  • The photograph
  • The compliments that are not about you
  • The shop assistant who has not left your side
  • The staring that never turns into anything
  • The reviews that contradict each other

This course puts you in it

Lesson by lesson, this course walks you through what solo travel is actually like when you are a black woman moving through the world. Not a workbook, not a checklist. The real situations, named honestly, and what you can do with each one.

Every lesson is a mix of watching, reading and doing. Some lessons drop you into a real moment, a look, a comment, a room where you are the only one, so you meet it here first and decide how you want to handle it, before it happens for real.

You move at your own pace, and you come back to it whenever you need it.

Questions, answered straight

Is this beginner friendly?

It does not assume you are a beginner. It is written for a black woman thinking about solo travel, from that experience honestly, whether it is your first trip or your fifteenth. If that is not you but you want to understand what a friend, a partner or a fellow traveller might be navigating, you are welcome here too. It gives a real answer instead of the two useless ones, the scary story and the pretend-it-is-fine.

What if I'm not sure it's for me?

Then do not subscribe yet. Join for free and take the free 2-minute quiz. It will point you to the free course that fits where you are right now, and you can start there without paying anything. If that free course speaks to you, subscribing to open the paid courses is your natural next step. There is no rush, and no reason to pay before you know this is yours.

Can I get a refund?

This runs as a subscription, not a one-off purchase, so it works a little differently. You can cancel anytime, and you keep full access until the end of your current billing cycle. Because everything unlocks instantly the moment you subscribe, there are no refunds on payments already made. That is why there is a free course leading into this one. Take the quiz, start there for nothing, and you will know whether this path is yours before you ever pay.
