As a girl of thirteen, Liza knew what it meant to be both the abuser and the abused.

As a teenager, she saw trauma get normalized as culture and advice. Fear, shame and anxiety were the norm but, that was when she began to look for healing. She wanted her life back – a life she had never seen before nor could articulate if she was asked but she knew she wanted that life, innocence and beauty, back.

About the same period, she got born-again and realized there were just as many abuse victims and abusers within the church as there were outside the church.

One time, a doctor of psychology claimed he could help her heal her sexual fears if she would let him touch her clitoris without penetrating her vagina.  This was her wake-up call that trauma was not just something that happened amongst ignorant people as her previous experiences suggested.

According to Liza, “abuse is a norm when unquestionable power meets ignorance.”

As she improved professionally, Liza and her friends began to teach people in the church to take control of their wellness and not allow themselves to be ignorant as that made them more prone to abuse, lopsided relationships, trauma bonds, addictions and all other self-sabotaging vices.

With a Bachelor’s degree in Physics Education, Liza dreams of becoming a Neuroscientist and Sexologist. While she is still in progress, she has gone on to become

  • A one-time (2-year tenure) National Secretary of the Young Business and Professional Women, Nigeria.
  • A YALI Alumna
  • A one-time Lead Interviewer of the Poetic Africa Magazine (3-Year Tenure)
  • A one-time Director of Romance Cafe (2-Year tenure)
  • The Present Media Director of the Alright’s Passion Network

All these, while simultaneously building and scaling her seven-year-old therapy business; Liza Express Wellness.

She is a sexual healer who integrates her knowledge as a trained educator, certified child and adolescent counsellor, fantastic journal therapist, lasting transformation coach, and skilled hypnotherapy practitioner, alongside her deep understanding of human biology and heterosexual pleasure.

Her goal is to assist individuals who have experienced trauma and addiction in building stable relationships—both romantically and as parents—while also helping them reclaim and experience sexual pleasure.

To do this, she sometimes has to help her clients navigate loving their bodies, recovering from abandonment, upgrading their styling game and even matchmaking them where necessary.

Over the last seven years, she has worked with more than a thousand people from small group teachings to one-on-one sessions. This figure excludes her general work on social media and her public articles on key conversations that affect our society such as men’s mental health, generational trauma, the dynamics of dating among other things.

She is also a lover of beauty and poetry. When she is not teaching, she reads for fun, travels and loves her pastries.
