Her mantra is, Peace, Love, and Grass Juice, and after listening to the conversation I had with Nicole “Nawala” Damiba of the Nawala Tribe, you’ll see that there is so much more to her than just that.
I really appreciate the intentional approach she takes to understanding life, and her willingness to talk to me about some “serious” topics. It’s not always easy to confront the deeper side of your life, and then turn around and share it openly, with the hopes it will benifit someone.
Sometimes I wonder if I’m just a bit nerdy when it comes to my interest in practical philosophy, thinking critically about life, and questioning aspects of my religious experience, but then I connect with a kindred traveler, and am reminded that the struggle to understand what is really going on is as human as…well…truly being alive.
Nawala definitely defines someone who is taking that pursuit seriously, examining her life, and making it count. I hope this, and future interviews motivate and inspire you in your journey to a better understanding of the human condition, what’s going on in your world, life, and personal development. That’s a tribe I can get down with anyday…
Check out part #1 of our conversation. We discuss the various benefits of blogging, pursuing truth, living your purpose, Religion, God, some tree hugging stuff, and more:
