“The Animo Summit was an exceptional and memorable event. The people + setting + activities. Nothing felt forced, didn’t feel like work and got us off our phones. We connected.”

JD Vance’s recent comments about Haitian immigrants are not only harmful but also patently false. Spreading baseless accusations like claims of people “eating cats” and “terrorizing communities” isn’t just fear-mongering—it’s irresponsible and dangerous. These kinds of statements fuel division and perpetuate harmful stereotypes, which do nothing to solve real issues facing our communities. Haitian immigrants, like all people, contribute positively to our economy, culture, and society. Instead of scapegoating, we should be focusing on constructive solutions that bring communities together and address actual problems, not manufactured ones. Our country deserves leadership that uplifts all its residents, not one that tears us apart with fear and lies.
I love this image via @creolexhibit. Creole Exhibit Art uses AI to generate images of revolutionary figures from the Haitian Revolution. During the Haitian Revolution, Haitian women of all social positions participated in the revolt that successfully ousted French colonial power from the island. Haitian people have demonstrated remarkable resilience against racism for a variety of historical, cultural, and social reasons.
We have a strong sense of self and refuse to be diminished by ignorance or inflammatory rhetoric. Our legacy is one of strength, and no amount of fear-mongering can erase that truth.

Forever embracing the charm of big bows. A nostalgic nod to my photoshoot for Miami Luxury Magazine’s Women of Style Issue, five years ago. This vintage Yves Saint Laurent dress from Fall ‘87 was love at first sight when I discovered it in Paris many years ago. I can’t wait to see my girls wear it one day. 🎀

Hacienda Subin, Establecido circa 1730. Restablecido en 2008 by internationally renowned interior and product designer Laura Kirar (@laurakirar) & Richard Frazier.
My discerning clients are often looking for one-of-a-kind experiences, so anytime I travel, I take the opportunity to explore hidden gems. This private Hacienda, brought to life by Laura and Richard took my breath away. @haciendasubin is a romantic, ancient ruin, just outside of Merida, the historic capital of the state of Yucatan. A former rancho and henequen plantation, the nearly 40 acre property includes a “Casa Principal” fronted by 11 Moorish arches, a Porfiriano style machine house and a a grand swimming pool surrounded by ancient Mayan stones and an elegant pool house.
Imagine executive retreats, weddings, birthday blowouts, welcome parties against this storied backdrop? Bringing in award winning chefs from Mexico for farm to table experiences, creating an artisan fair to greet guests with incredible handmade gifts? The pool has stones that have been repurposed from a Mayan temple and there is an actual preserved Mayan hut on the property. Retreat anyone? Yes.
Authentic. Grand. Grounded.
This just feels like home, in no part thanks to the love, deep respect and consideration poured into it by Laura and Richard. To our gracious hosts: Thank you. There is nothing like traveling the world and making new friends.
Happy to connect my fellow event planners and producers. Xx

A dear colleague who owns one of the top hotels in the world, asked me a few days ago, “Nat, what makes you fall in love with a hotel?” It’s the details. It’s the destination. It’s the people. It’s the culture. It’s the food. It’s when you don’t speak the language, but the smile says it all. Another trip down memory lane with my daughters on our special trip last year in Morocco. I can still feel everything about @LaSultanaMarrakechOfficiel Happy 20th Anniversary!

Happy 20th Anniversary to @LaSultanaMarrakechOfficiel.🥂 I will never forget the mother and daughter trip my girls and I took there last year. It is an impeccable Riad with the best of Moroccan hospitality, tucked away in the heart of an authentic Kasbah. Not much of a surprise if you find me and my friends here for the next birthday celebration. Hint. Hint.
