About

Who Are We?

Island View is your weekly escape from the ordinary—where satire meets sense, and every topic under the Caribbean sun gets a fresh, witty twist. We believe you can laugh and learn at the same time. That’s why we blend sharp humor, insightful commentary, and handpicked resources into one breezy newsletter (and website) you’ll actually look forward to opening.

After years of chasing traditional success, we realised that true fulfilment isn’t just about business growth or the bottom line. It’s about harmony—between work and play, ambition and presence, creativity and connection. It’s about living (and working) with both integrity and joy.

In Trinidad and Tobago, life moves at a different pace, and every day offers a new lesson—sometimes from nature, sometimes from observing animals, and often from the wonderful people we meet.

What Do We Cover?

If it’s quirky, useful, or just plain relatable, it’s fair game at Island View. Our favourite topics include:

  • Small business, empowerment & entrepreneurship (with a side of sarcasm)

  • Relationships & real talk (the real, the ridiculous, and the occasionally romantic)

  • Crafting & sewing (sometimes with glue disasters)

  • Home, food, & office life (from kitchen table chaos to productivity hacks)

  • Trinidad & Tobago culture (proud, loud, and a little mischievous)

  • Dogs, cats, and all the furry drama in between

  • Money Management, Education & aging (witty and wise takes on learning and growing older)

  • Politics & conspiracies (wild theories and political shenanigans)

Why Satire?

Because life’s too short to take everything seriously. We believe humour opens minds and hearts, making even the trickiest topics easier to digest. Our satire is sharp but never mean—our goal is to spark a laugh, a thought, or maybe even a “wait, that’s actually helpful!”

What We Believe

  • Self-improvement and emotional intelligence are the real “growth hacks.”
    We enjoy learning, reflecting, and helping others do the same.

  • Relationships are everything.
    Whether with clients, collaborators, or your own inner circle, connection is at the heart of a well-lived life.

  • Business should be beautiful, ethical, and human.
    Design isn’t just about looks—it’s about creating brands and experiences that feel like home.

  • A good laugh is as important as a good strategy.
    That’s why you’ll find more than just a touch of satire and wit on this site—because business (and life) shouldn’t always be so serious!

  • Curated wisdom beats content overload.
    We share only what’s truly useful, inspiring, or just plain delightful.

What You’ll Find Here
