DeShawn Paterson: Finance in Shanghai

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.

Today, Chrishan has become a trusted voice in the global living space, inspiring Black women around the world to question inherited definitions of success and imagine more expansive possibilities for how they live, work, age, and move through the world.

Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Essence, EBONY, Condé Nast Traveler, HuffPost, and other leading media outlets covering global mobility, lifestyle transformation, and Black expatriation.
