A free event held in person and online.

Join Itzel Hayward and Eunice Busby for a gentle, heart-centered gathering rooted in breath, reflection, and ancestral connection.

Itzel will guide a short Yoga practice centered on breath, movement, and presence — practices to support reconnection with ourselves and begin opening the inner pathways that support ancestral healing. Afterward, Eunice, founder of West2West Travel, will share the inspiration behind Rest and Remember, the Yoga and cultural retreat Eunice and Itzel are co-hosting in Ghana this September — a journey rooted in remembrance, community, and deep healing.

Whether you're considering attending the retreat or simply curious to learn more, all are warmly welcome. In-person attendees will receive a small gift brought back from Ghana by Eunice with love. (Please pre-register so Eunice knows how many gifts to bring.)

This gathering is not just an introduction — it’s an offering in itself, held in the same spirit of reverence and remembrance that anchors the Rest and Remember retreat. May it offer a moment of reconnection — to yourself, your ancestors, and the possibilities of healing in community.

What people are saying about Eunice…

From start to finish, our experience with West2West Tours was nothing short of incredible! ✨

Traveling to Ghana for the first time was deeply personal for my family and me — and Eunice made sure it was unforgettable in all the best ways. When my passport was delayed, she didn’t miss a beat. She replanned, pivoted, and rearranged our entire trip without hesitation, all while keeping our comfort and preferences top of mind.

She truly listened to my “do’s and don’ts,” and made sure we experienced everything we dreamed of — plus so many hidden gems we didn’t even know to ask for.

From being picked up at Kotoka International Airport, to riding in a clean, spacious, air-conditioned van, to tasting Ghana’s vibrant food scene, to celebrating my birthday dinner at YaYa’s in style — every moment was beautifully curated with care, flexibility, and heart.

What could have been a stressful trip became one of the most joyous, rich, and soul-filling experiences of our lives — all thanks to Eunice and her team.
