Detroit is Different episode 417 with Imani Elie
"I never saw myself working for anybody as a kid. I said, ‘I want to be a celebrity. I don’t want to work for nobody.’" Imani Elie turned her love for travel into a thriving business, Detroit Travel Co., and in this episode, she shares her incredible journey from Detroit’s east side to the Navy, traveling the world, and finally building her own travel agency. From navigating military life on an aircraft carrier to mastering the art of curating unforgettable travel experiences, Imani takes us through the highs and lows of her adventure-filled career. Hear about the moments that shaped her—from discovering peanut stew in Ghana to driving a ship near Dubai—and learn how she’s helping Detroiters see the world. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or just getting your passport stamped, this conversation will inspire you to explore beyond your backyard.
