Chrishan Wright is a former corporate marketing executive turned global entrepreneur, storyteller, and Chief Freedom Advocate exploring what it means for Black women to build lives rooted in peace, purpose, wellbeing, and global possibility.

Through Blaxit Global, she shares honest reflections and practical insights on life abroad, reinvention, wellness, entrepreneurship, aging, and intentional life design beyond the borders of the United States.

After building a successful corporate career in the U.S., Chrishan made the decision to redesign her life internationally in pursuit of greater alignment, flexibility, wellbeing, and freedom. Following years of global travel and exploration, she relocated to Portugal, where she continues building a life by design — not by default.
