In this epsiode Chloe & Steph had the privilege of sitting down (in person) with PhD Researcher (Trauma Transformation), Transformation Thought Leader, TEDx Speaker, Author, Engineer, Entrepreneur, Mother & Producer Yemi Penn.
In part one of our three part series we learn about who Yemi is, her backstory, what drives her and lessons she's learnt along the way. We break down her PhD work in the trauma space and unpack what it all means.
Key points from the conversation:
- Yemi shares insights on transforming pain to power, igniting rebellious curiosity, and healing collective trauma through her research and personal experiences.
- Yemi discusses her journey of restlessness and curiosity that led her to start her own businesses, including an engineering consultancy, a gym franchise, and a cafe.
- Yemi reflects on the successes and challenges of scaling her businesses, emphasising the importance of community and ethical practices.
- Yemi discusses the impact of Tony Robbins' teachings on her perspective, particularly around visualization, manifestation, and fusing spirituality with personal growth.
- Yemi is in the final stages of her PhD research on transforming cultural trauma through documentary-making with a decolonised lens.
- The group explores the concept of trauma, including "big T" and "small t" trauma, and how individual experiences and windows of tolerance can shape one's response.
- Steph and Chloe share their personal experiences with trauma and grief, and the importance of addressing these through alternative healing methods.
