Something new is coming soon, and I’m so excited to share it with you.

Over the past 10 years as a travel professional — and through living in three countries, traveling to 22 countries (and counting), and relocating internationally multiple times with three large dogs and a cat — I’ve learned something important:

Relocation isn’t just about logistics.

A new country doesn’t automatically create a new life.

Culture shock is real. Identity shifts happen. Old patterns can follow us if we’re not prepared.

That’s why Purpose Filled Passports™ and Inner Mojo Coaching™ are coming together to launch Arrive Well™ Relocation Readiness — a program designed to support people moving abroad with clarity, emotional readiness, and cultural preparation.

Arrive Well will combine:

✨ relocation planning + goal setting
✨ trauma-informed coaching and identity transition support
✨ culture shock and integration preparation
✨ guidance so you don’t carry emotional baggage into a new chapter

And I’m honored that a portion of proceeds will also support the Inner Mojo Rising movement, empowering teens and young adults through inner healing, leadership, and purpose development.

More details coming soon — I can’t wait to share what we’re building.

💬 If you’ve ever moved to a new place (especially abroad), what’s one thing you wish you had emotionally prepared for before arriving?

Hello XCITE's Family!!

I wanted to personally share what I’ve been working on — something that means more to me than anything I’ve ever built.

It’s called The Inner Mojo Rising Movement, and it’s already touching lives in the U.S., Mexico, and Cape Town. We’re helping teens and adults heal emotionally through journaling, creativity, and mentorship — giving them tools to rise from within.
This is Phase 1 of a bigger vision that will grow into Your Inner Mojo Lounge — a healing and creative sanctuary that will fund these youth programs long-term.

Every donation helps us train mentors, send wellness kits into the townships and at-risk communities, and open the door to healing for communities that deserve it most. Even just $5 helps! And if you can't donate please just share, share, share! You never know who may know someone, who knows someone who knows someone!

Thank you for believing in me and for helping make this vision real.

With love and gratitude,
Chlarissa 🌿

Greetings XCITE Family!

We haven’t kept in touch as much as I promised, but we think about our XCITE Family often. We miss bringing smiles through our birthday parties and the bonds we built in the community over ice cream. A lot has changed since I last updated you!

The kiddos are growing up. Do you remember our youngest son? Can you believe he is now 5’11 and in a size 14 shoe? He completed 9th and 10th grade last year so he will be starting the 11th grade. Our daughter Cai is now 17 and starting her senior year. She has her sights set on attending an international law school. Our oldest son has changed career fields and is learning cybersecurity.

We truly enjoyed our 3.5 years in Mexico. We made incredible friends as we continued our mission of community impact through our non-profit, The Hardy Brothers Foundation (www.hardybrosfoundation.org). We donated money, volunteered our time, and even adopted a community to provide food and medical supplies.

We are now spending time in Africa as we continue living out our purpose of making a difference. One of those ways is through a non-profit, Humanitarian Global Alliance (www.ppeforall.org), where we aim to provide PPE to anyone who needs it, particularly underserved communities.

I’ve also written 4 books, which can be found on Barnes & Noble, Ingram Spark, and Amazon that discuss overcoming generational trauma. One of the books is an anti-suicide book geared toward today’s youth who are facing emotional challenges. You can find more information on www.ChlarissaHarrison.com. I also offer coaching to our youth to help them find their way at www.yourinnermojo.com.

Last but not least, we would like to share some additional FUN and EXCITING news. There is a new, phenomenal laser tag company in town! TAGS Laser Quest!! TAGS is owned by former XCITE customers (Tyler, Ava, Grady & Shelby = TAGS 🥹🥰) who have become family. (Little Ava was our bestest hostess at XCITE's Sweet Connections!) I couldn't decide on my favorite pictures with this beautiful family, so now you have a few! Haha

Side note: Tyler is also a gifted woodworker (as seen by the beautiful handmade piece in the photo that was engraved by another small business owner and friend, Sherry Newsome Murphy, called Creative Sonshine, LLC. She is just as amazing!)

TAGS is ready to bring a new level of XCITEment to your parties and corporate events. Check them out at www.TAGSLaserQuest.com. You can also call 980.285.2622.

If you thought XCITE was good, wait until you try TAGS! Don’t wait...Book TODAY!

The end of an era...

Back in March 2016, we launched a family business that we all could enjoy. XCite Mobile Gaming, LLC was born. We soon grew to add "& Entertainment" to our name, offering a variety of services bringing countless smiles to the Carolinas. We then launched our community friendly rolled ice cream shop, XCITE's Sweet Connections where we tried our best to make a difference.

As they say, all good things must come to an end. We closed Sweet Connections when we decided to go from snowbirds to full time residents of Mexico. We downsized from 4 game/glam trucks down to one. This past weekend, we sold the last one. 🥹 We are still debating what to do with our laser tag equipment but XMG Charlotte is no more.

It is bitter sweet. We worked hard to give our and other kids that "leg up", that so many don't get. . They have business management, training, inventory, customer service skills, etc, to go out into the workforce. Cai and Coy were running things by 10 and 12 (Jae was a little older). We strategically hired teen foster kids, the homeless and we were the first job for our friends' kids. And to top it off, we ended with 5 star reviews. 🥹

The hubs and I are inching towards 50. In a few short years, we will be empty nesters. There is so much of the world for us to see. We are still deciding what's next, but in the meantime I am just laying here in gratitude. That poor little girl, who grew up around domestic violence and many times didn't have utilities and nothing but a syrup sandwich as a meal has done some awesome ass s**t. I can truly say I've done my best to be the change that I wanted see in the world. Plus, my kids have never and will never know my plight.

While, we are working on what's next, I am busy writing 2 more books to encourage other disadvantaged youth so that they can know that they, too, can break the curse.

*Tears*

Thank you to all who supported, promoted, painted, referred, listened, talked, partnered over the years, trusted us with their kids to work, etc. We made some wonderful friends in the process. We love and thank all of you. We wish the best of luck to all new owners!

Birthday BLAST!!!

07/27/2022

Greetings all,

We've been in business for 6 years so I think it's time for a reminder. We have our terms and conditions for a reason. We don't drive on grass because we've gotten stuck many times. We don't go into tight neighborhoods because we don't want to jack-knife which is why the tailgate on the truck is dented (by employees who took unnecessary chances). We don't drive on gravel because of the numerous tires we have had to replace. All of this is in our terms and conditions on our website and in the email we send. If you book a party despite our terms, then yes, there is a pretty strong chance it will be denied or we will suggest an alternate location. We try everything in our power to make things work but sometimes, we have to make decisions that are good for our business versus what our hearts want to do.

We have always prided ourselves on going above and beyond in every business that we own. If we make a mistake, we go over and beyond to try and make things right. We have proven the extent that we will go through to make our clients happy. However, we are not going to jeopardize my property to do so. The only person that has to pay for damage is me. It is also not fair to disappoint subsequent parties by taking unnecessary risks. As a business owner, I determine the risks that I am willing to take, not the customer. Not the employees.

I truly hope this is taken with sincere thought, especially those who KNOW the service we provide. I feel awful to have to say this, but I will not allow myself nor my employees to be ridiculed or bullied. Period. I'll take a bad review for that any day.

My heart goes out to other business owners who have expressed the difficulties in operating in this new post-covid environment.
