Speaker Bio
Metanoya Z. Webb is a Creative Director, Storyteller and Digital Strategist who works with brands and companies to develop and scale transformative content. Throughout her career, Metanoya has held influential roles at BET, Coach, Cosmopolitan, Hearst Digital, InStyle, Marie Claire, and most recently, Essence Communications, where she served as the Lifestyle Director working across print, digital, live events and experiential. A native of Queens, New York, Metanoya’s childhood dreams of becoming an attorney, then judge, quickly shifted in Junior High School while on a missionary trip to Loíza, Puerto Rico. Already exposed to travel thanks to summer road trips with her mother and two older siblings, she was fascinated by the Afro influence on the island. It all came full circle for Metanoya after studying abroad in London, in college, and with the launch of her digital lifestyle channel, Globetrotting Stiletto. Her passion for travel, coupled with the desire to share stories informed by communities of color around the globe, made for a successful platform that captivated her audience with each story she told. In turn, she inspired trips to destinations rich in character and fostered a safe space where diverse cultures were recognized and celebrated within the travel community. With over 60 countries under her belt, Metanoya brings a certain flair to lifestyle content creation that is unapologetically her own. While she is socially and environmentally conscious, and prefers exploring destinations through the lens of locals, a pair of her favorite stilettos are sure to make it on each flight. These days, Metanoya is mastering the art of work-life-balance. She currently oversees a team of talented writers in her role as Creative Director, Editorial, at Daily Harvest—a NYC-based organic food company. She’s a devoted mother to a fun, loving, inquisitive 6-year-old, Journey Noel, and when she finds time, pens travel essays and design spotlights for global publications.
