Hello from the Director

My name is Zunade Powell de Caires. I am the face behind TJOIA Wellness and I am delighted that you have found your way here!

 

Wellness is all about balancing what you take in with what you put out. I hope you will take great comfort in knowing TJOIA Wellness has God at the centre of all it does and is painstakingly conscious not to compromise your spiritual relationship with the Father for worldly trends. 
​
TJOIA Wellness was created to be a luxurious wellness haven for Christians who embrace a holistic approach to life. By considering the mind, body and spirit in their fullest sense and integrating them with the wellness industry, I noticed that the sector often leans towards New Age practices and cultures outside of Christianity when it comes to luxury. Being a Christian, this isn't something I want to entertain.​
​
Why TJOIA Wellness? Why luxury? 
​
As I progressed through my career and came into contact with trailblazers and ambitious individuals in various industries, I saw a decrease in spaces that advocate for God and provide a service for the believer outside of church settings. I want to use this opportunity to make my viewpoint clear, financial wealth does not make a person. When we look at the beatitudes (Matt. c5 v 3-11) it is not wealth that makes a man blessed but rather a character and posture of heart towards God and circumstances. In a world that is forever changing, providing environments for fellowship and environments where Christians can just be, is essential.​ The element of luxury is a bonus.
​
I wasn't sure how TJOIA Wellness would be received, but when I plucked up the courage to speak about it in corporate settings, it was as if I opened Pandora's box. People were keen to hear more, adding they had someone in mind who would love to experience a retreat like this.

​

With two decades of experience in sales and marketing, prominently within the education sector and, more recently, advertising, I have honed my skills and knowledge to better serve my community.​

 

I have a deep passion for supporting young people and families from low-income backgrounds and I am proud to serve on the board of a charity dedicated to this cause.​

 

Music is one of my greatest joys— you will often find me singing in the kitchen most days. I am also an avid theatre enthusiast. ​I cherish spending time with family and friends, exercising, and taking long walks with my husband on the weekends.

 

Recently, I was asked what confidence looks like to me and how I want to be known. I said:
​
"I want to be known for my faith and for experiencing life in a way that encourages others to share their truths. I strive to create spaces where people feel relaxed, yet empowered to stand in their truth and pursue their personal goals with all their unique markers and colours, figuratively speaking.

 

Above all, I want to be known as someone who served the Lord, not just in words but in actions."

 

Thank you so much for showing an interest in TJOIA Wellness. I look forward to seeing you soon. 

With Love, 

​
