They say motherhood is a privilege…but not when it feels like the life you truly desire is only possible in your dreams. It’s time to rewrite the narrative and redefine what it means to have it all as a woman in motherhood, life, and career.  Permission Granted is a mindset, career, and life-focused show for the ambitious, purpose-driven woman who is ready to create a life where her career success, inner peace, and fulfilling personal relationships are the vibe.

 

Join me, Unyime, Life Architect and Speaker, for conversations that will reignite your passion for life as a mom who wears multiple hats and is committed to wearing them well. I’m a wife and mom, and work a 9-5 in addition to podcasting and hosting a business. This podcast is where I leverage my experiences in public health, strategic planning, and leadership in private and public sector organizations to navigate conversations around the stories that hold us back from showing up in the fullest expression of who we are in the world as women. 


Whether you’re a seasoned mom or just starting, this is your go-to resource for everything you need to know about creating a life where you get to experience motherhood, career, and life with less stress, more peace, and zero burnout. 


Get ready to be inspired, activated, and a little sassy as you lead your life, thrive, and experience what’s possible when you choose to give yourself permission to be. 

This is Permission Granted. I'm elated that you're here. Let’s begin.
