"The tiny ant, a creature of great industry, drags with its mouth whatever it can, and adds it to the heap which she is piling up, not unaware nor careless of the future.” HORACE LaLa Land Resorts & Sustainable Living Community. Start off as a Resort/Retreat Style Sustainable Living Community to include Zen Gardens, Green Houses, Adult Tree Houses, Salt Caves & Organic Holistic Living and more. Until we can gain enough funding to gain more land and private islands to create mass Minority Owned Sustainable Living Communities. Sisterhood of the Traveling Coins Spiritual & Minority Owned Women’s Business Tribe. Lavetta is a Washington, D.C. native. She graduated from M.M.Washington CSHS as a Certified Nursing Assistant. Like many women, she wears many hats/ titles: mom of two, daughter, sis/aunt, CEO/Owner and serial entrepreneur. While transitioning and exploring other career paths outside of health and wellness- she discovered her love of Property Management, construction, development and management of sustainable living communities. In this arena, she gained knowledge on event planning and building a comfortable and convenient atmosphere to one’s living experience within her communities. Lavetta tapped into direct sales, life insurance, travel and real estate as well. She slowly gravitated back to wellness and began her studies of massage therapy in 2017-2018 until a health decline drastically took over her life. At the age of 36 she was diagnosed with Stage Two Triple Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer. This brought new perspective to her reality. She began to realize the fabric of life was so fragile and not to be taken for granted under any circumstances. After a successful battle, she completed a YTT-200 Hour Class to become a Certified Yoga and Mindfulness Meditation Instructor. When covid hit she began a career in the medical marijuana industry as a patient consultant, educating patient on best uses and practices of cannabis. She is able to share her journey and the benefits of medicating and how it helped her with her PTSD, a chronic illness and pain!! The rest has led her here today as your Wellness and Spa Coordinator, with a serious love for holistic healing and sustainable living. It was divine intervention that weaved her skills and talents to provide a five star service experience of a life time, from simply wanting to help & heal. Her vision is to create a place to educate and empower others to a holistic and sustainable lifestyle with strong collaborative efforts with other small and minority business owners. The GSA of wellness and Green Lifestyle for brown and black people.
