Did I Choose My Trauma?
This short documentary follows Yemi Penn's experience of childhood abuse into adulthood and is integrated with the knowledge and insight of leading therapists and healers. The confrontational question that drives the documentary is ‘can the journey to healing our trauma act as a catalyst for transformation and growth?’.

Yemi Penn is a fearless woman and thought leader on creating your own memo, meaning ‘she’ gets to write the script of her life and encourages others to do the same.
She is a serial entrepreneur with a common thread of transformation across her businesses, whether it be transforming Sydney’s rail network as an engineer, transforming physical health in her F45 gym or shifting the perspective of our minds as she supports people in creating a life that they not only want but deserve.
More recently Yemi has added documentary producer to her repertoire as she shifts her core life’s purpose to raising the vibration of acknowledging and healing our individual and therefore collective trauma.
This was a task put to me by my ancestors, to start a conversation around healing our trauma from a 5D perspective. The team that came together to make it happen were truly phenomenal. We seek to make huge IMPACT to minimise and eliminate suffering whilst contributing at the same time.
