Title: Decolonized Travel & Culture Curator & Program Director

Company: QmooniTi & Sisters Leading Sisters

Bio: Lystra Sam is a serial entrepreneur and a lifelong learner. She is the creator and architect for “The World When Black” Anti-Racism and Allyship workshops that center on the disruption and dismantling of white supremacy culture in the Travel, Tourism & Hospitality and Wellness industry and beyond. She was TOM – Trauma of Money certified in 2020 and SFU Community Container Building certified in 2020 which continued her trauma informed decolonizing education which she marries to her anti capitalist business model.

Since 2017 she has been building her business and taking up space in the travel industry with her business called “Qmooniti Travel & Lifestyle”.

After living and working internationally for a decade and traveling around the world several times she has now visited over 90 countries and considers herself a global citizen.

This experience informs her decisions for the travel business that focuses on inclusion and culture with a decolonized lens while centering Black, Indigenous, people of colour, 2SLGBTQIA+, people with disabilities and the solo female/femme traveler as she bridges the gaps in the industry that have been created by white supremacy culture. Take advantage of our speciality and hire the QmooniTi team to curate an elevated, decolonizing corporate conference, wellness retreat and/or community gathering.

A feminist, an advocate and activist in the Black community for over 30 years, she is the founder of Sisters Leading Sisters which offer tools and resources to Black & Indigenous women/femmes. Sisters Leading Sisters is grounded in healing within the intersection of Qmooniti ‘s (communities) which is based on the tenet of UBUNTU “I am because you are” and supports leadership, emerging leadership, relationship building, mentoring, and building community that makes space for us all to learn to build any table we desire to sit at and invite everyone to join us there. Make sure to check out the annual retreat here.
