Art, Trade & Lifestyle: Meet Unique Gibson
This week, ATL spotlights Unique Gibson, the passionate founder of the SuperSize Your Life Expo—a groundbreaking two-day event on October 18th and 19th in Atlanta designed to uplift, empower, and celebrate plus-size individuals and their allies. Hosted in a vibrant, welcoming setting, the Expo brings together inspirational speakers, inclusive vendors, expert-led workshops, entertainment, and a thriving community—all dedicated to one mission: helping people of size embrace their best life now, no shrinking required.
What Makes the SuperSize Your Life Expo?
Unique: Unlike traditional expos that focus on transformation or weight loss, SuperSize Your Life is all about celebration, self-confidence, and real connection. Attendees can explore resources from fashion and wellness to travel and advocacy—discovering new skills, building community, and being reminded they are valued just as they are. Unique’s passion ensures that everyone, regardless of background, feels seen and encouraged.
A.T.L. News: Unique, where do you see the SuperSize Your Life Expo in five years?
Unique: Atlanta is just the beginning. In five years, I want to bring the Expo to at least five different cities each year. My goal is for everyone of size to feel the love and community we build—and if travel feels hard, I’ll bring the party to you until you’re ready to travel, too.
A.T.L. News: What’s your relationship with Mrs. Brittany Washington, and how is it working with her?
Unique: Brittany is wonderful. She’s not only a great friend, but a connector and cheerleader. Working with her is easy—our ideas and support just flow together. Having her on our Atlanta speakers team is a true blessing, and she always inspires both me and our guests.
A.T.L. News: Anything you’d like to share with our readers?
