Essence Festival Experience Curator 

Carnisha Thomas

"The Wandering Coach"

Our signature Elevated Experiences are much more than another fun trip- we make sure there is always something extra that you can take away other than just amazing selfies. There is always a sense of sisterhood when you travel with us. You’ll experience cultural immersion, world renowned cuisines and everything that makes Essence Festival and New Orleans the perfect pair.

The special thing about Elevated Essence experience is you’ll get to experience the festival through a Louisiana native. I grew up wandering the streets of New Orleans during the Essence Festival, so you can definitely trust me with your Essence Festival Experience no matter if it’s your first time or you come every year! I’m looking forward to seeing you at Essence 2023!

ABOUT ME

"All that glitters is not gold, and all those who wander are not lost"

I whole-heartedly believe that sometimes the greatest blessings in life are found when we're busy making plans. I have wandered throughout the US living in different states and traveling to a few countries for the past 7 years and that has definitely been key to finding myself and deciding who I wanted to be.

 

You are not required to conform to societal norms, you are free to live your life and define success EXACTLY the way YOU envision it.

When you work with me, we will get laser focused on the life you want to live then reverse engineer your life so we create a detailed plan to make sure we get you there. I call these plans flight plans- we define where you want to be, pinpoint exactly where you are, then develop a step-by-step plan of action to get you there while avoiding any obstacles and roadblocks.

 

Strength doesn’t come from what you can do. It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t. Sign up for a consultation and we'll get started on building your very own flight plan to get you to your goals.❤
