About Me...

I’m addicted to mangoes, filling my closets with shoes, cruises and yes, shopping of course!. My “Purpose by Design” is to help families with kids, single moms, holidaymakers, passionate entrepreneurs, and small business owners to enjoy their annual family getaways using a Live FUNNER, Spend LESS, Vacation MORE business model, a.k.a. “Living the Maximized Life” through the concept of building communities and leveraging a simple 3 step vacation system.

Wife – Entrepreneur – Travelholic

I am the co-founder of Funntripps Vacation Club and the wife to an amazing man! If you’d like to get in touch, please connect with me here.

Entrepreneurshhip: The Dream-Struggle-Victory

In 2006, I relocated from Freeport, Grand Bahama to The Exumas as a member of the Casino at Emerald Bay’s opening team. It was an exciting time filled with fun and promise. Then it happened: the financial crisis of 2007–2008, also known as the global financial crisis (GFC), which eventually led to the closure of the casino.

The closure of the casino was actually a blessing in disguise because I decided to take more control of my own schedule and life. I’ve personally “set a goal to become successful” for what it will make of me to achieve it. I’ve drawn the line in the sand. I’m on my way as I learn how to start, run and grow a successful residential & commercial cleaning business

I’m doing it for the skills I have to learn and the person I have to become.” I truly appreciate the work commitments and time challenges facing many households nowadays. Kids have homework, practice, rehearsals, sports meets, and a variety of other activities that require many parents to spend even more time out of the house. Working most commonly on a weekly or every other week schedule, I aim to give busy individuals and families clean, comfortable homes to return to and enjoy. Homes cleaned according to their individual wishes and services backed by a 24-hour satisfaction guarantee.

In a nutshell, it’s really quite simple: “I clean houses.”

Sooo, Who Is This Bahama Mama?

Work Experience

Yes, I’m just a small island girl who discovered a big world. I am an entrepreneur, former Croupier, Pit Boss, and Housekeeping Supervisor. Basically, I’ve been in the customer service business all of my career.

There was also a time when I once was a crew-member onboard a yatch and also operated my own travel agency. Since that time, I have run my own company, The McNew Group from the sidelines.

I’m the proprietor of McNew Cleaning Services, a housekeeping service based in The Bahamas, my homeland. I use my ever-expanding platform to dispense useful, time-saving cleaning tips, tricks and recommendations. This includes everything from developing a daily cleaning routine to de-cluttering and organizing around the home.

While I have delivered expert advice on cleaning products, tools, and DIY substitutes for over ten years, I wasn’t always a cleaning pro (or fan) and understand that people are looking for practical, time-saving solutions to everyday problems.

However, I’ve recently decided to seriously follow my passions having been bitten by the entrepreneurial bug. I have also started a membership group, which will serve Funntripps Vacation Club exclusively.

Family Life

I have been married to my fun, witty, smart and handsome husband, Ricardo for twenty-two years. We have numerous nieces and nephews in addition to several adopted sons and daughters. We still live in the beautiful Islands of The Bahamas, currently residing in the hidden playgrounds of Exuma & The Exuma Cays..

Singing

I enjoy singing and I'm a member of the awesome Praise Team at Rhema Kingdom Ministries in Exuma, Bahamas.

Helping People

What I enjoy most is helping ordinary people discover their unique "God-given talents" so that they can impact lives and live their "Purpose by Design."
