Back to the Beginning - Chantal Miller with Vanel Bailey & Brianné Chapman (Nevis)

In this special season finale of the Island Girls Rock Podcast, we flip the script. Youth Engagement Coordinators Vanel Bailey and Brianné Chapman step into the hosting seats, turning the mic on the podcast’s host, Chantal Miller, for a candid and celebratory conversation.

With Island Girls Rock marking its 10th year, Vanel and Brianné take the opportunity to go back to the beginning — exploring the inspiration behind the organisation, and the woman at the heart of it. Chantal reflects on her childhood growing up between Nevis and the UK, how navigating two worlds shaped her identity, and how those experiences ultimately led to the creation of Island Girls Rock. It’s a warm, fun, and deeply insightful conversation that feels like a love letter to a decade of community, culture, and Caribbean girlhood.
