Thursday 6th February 2025 it was with deep sadness that I shared the news of my cousin Tascha’s passing. I’m devastated and in complete disbelief. She was the first person from my friends and family to follow @MinnieEscapes , showing me unwavering support as I built my travel business from the ground up.
I was set to contact her the week of her passing and fill her in on my business including the launch of my latest digital guide—an exciting resource to help others create new income streams.
Being someone whose endured so much bereavement in my life this passing is just another reminder to Never Ever wait to reach out, time is not promised to no one and we really do need to make the most of the moments that we have. I am in deep regret I was due to message her and now I can’t.
She would have been someone who would have been amazing within travel industry if given the chance and opportunity and I missed the opportunity to tell her this.
I am truly Heartbroken!
Though this moment comes with a heavy heart, Through tears I made my new travel guide available. I dedicated the launch of this Travel Guide to Tascha and honor the love and support she showed me from day one. Literally my first follow, my first like, showing me her unwavering love 💛 and support.
I released the guide in her memory, knowing she would have been cheering me on.
My Unlocking Freedom: The Ultimate Digital Nomad Passive Income Guide Now available!
Thank you, Tascha, for believing in me. This one is for you. 💛
After releasing the guide on the the Thursday, by the Sunday it became apparent to me there was something I had been holding off doing in relation to my YouTube channel.
I was holding back posting a vlog of a trip I took while in grief last year (2024). So now even though it has Taken Me ages to even post, I have posted a new YouTube Travel Vlog: Healing Through Travel: My Journey to White Beach Taghazout, Agadir, Morocco
Healing Through Travel : I’ve needed time to heal but I made choice to post on Sunday 9th February 2025 in hope that maybe it might help others who are grieving and inspire them to travel and heal. The reason I hadn’t done so prior was mainly because 2024 was just an overwhelming year filled with grief and loss, revisiting the footage just kept bringing me to tears.
Within just 12 months, I lost five beloved family members—my Auntie Christine (January), Uncle Errol (March), Aunt Alithea (May), Uncle Snagger (July), and Aunt Annette before the year’s end. Processing so much loss was overwhelming, and I knew I needed time and space to heal.
With each passing of a loved one, the pain is excruciating—like a wound reopened, bringing back the weight of every loss before it.
Grief is heavy, and the sorrow runs deep, but in the midst of it all, I am thankful for God’s grace, His mercy, and His presence as my comforter in the hardest of times.
Right now my heart goes out to my family and to everyone mourning the loss of our dear, beautiful Natasha—a bright soul who touched so many lives and will be deeply missed.
These are sad times, but my prayer is with all who are grieving right now. May you find strength, peace, and comfort in the love that surrounds you.
Travelling to grieve and heal has become my therapy. Taking trips to White Beach Taghazout in Agadir, Morocco, gave me the chance to reflect, find peace, and honor my loved ones while appreciating the gift of life. The sound of the waves, the endless ocean views, and the calming atmosphere of this adults-only beachfront resort made all the difference.
Grief doesn’t disappear, but travel has helped me gain clarity, find joy in the little moments, and live fully—not just for myself, but in memory of those I’ve lost. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape, whether for healing or relaxation, I highly recommend White Beach Taghazout.
As I write this on February 14th 2025, I am on a solo trip to Marrakech Morrocco - it was a planned ‘Self Love:Self Care’ trip, in light of everything that’s happened recently it also provides me with an opportunity to take stock, heal and work through any grief emotions that arise and come up.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support my journey. 💛 Tascha I’m gonna miss you, praying 🙏🏽for the family, this is hard 😢 accepting this is even real, like a real shock to the system.
If you’ve ever traveled to heal, I’d love to hear your story in the comments. Let’s support and uplift each other. 💛
