When she’s not busy, you’ll find Unyime painting and taking care of her plant babies…or napping, which is one of her favorite things to do.

● Unyime’s personal body image story- growing up in Nigeria, immigrating to Canada & the cultural differences + similarities around body image expectations.
● Why values work is essential for cultivating deeper authenticity, self-compassion + healing.
● Practical tools for healing our relationship with our body through everyday exposure therapy.
● Identifying and healing perfectionism + people pleasing
