According to American poet, singer, autobiographer, and civil rights activist Maya Angelou, “Nothing can dim the light that shines within us.” Indeed, Angelou inspires humanity with both the unusual beauty and the call to action of her words.
This venerable American icon and invincible lioness has undoubtedly inspired the life story of Dr. Olubusola Oluwaferanmi, affectionately known as “Dr. O,” who navigates with a special light that shines from the depths of her being. It is no surprise that this path has allowed her to illuminate and impact humanity in a way that few could.
A highly seminal figure in the fields of pastoral counseling, life coaching, and holistic wellness, Dr. Olubusola Oluwaferanmi holds a doctorate in Christian counseling and is a certified life coach, massage therapist, and licensed alternative medicine therapist. Her ministry work focuses primarily on marriage counseling, sex therapy, juvenile delinquency, spiritual and inner healing, and youth empowerment.
Dr. O believes completely and irrefutably that wellness is the complete integration of body, mind and spirit, or the awareness that everything a human being does, thinks, feels and believes, has an effect on their state of well-being. She has demonstrated this spiritual and scientific knowledge in her successes and in her various interventions.
She has a rich background in Christian ministry and counseling, combining her academic accomplishments with practical experience. She is an ordained Reverend and Prophet, a certified marriage mentor, and a SYMBIS (Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts) facilitator. She is also a member of the American Association of Christian Counselors and has been actively involved in various forms of counseling since 2001.
Well-known television personality Max Carver speaks to the deepest human purpose when he insightfully observed, “Empathy is the starting point for community and action. It is the impetus for creating change.” Dr. O has not just created a community, but international communities of purpose that she leads with empathy and purpose. And she is creating positive change in people’s lives.
In 2011, she founded “Intimate Issues with Dr. Olubusola” (IIWDO), a 501c charity dedicated to supporting victims of domestic violence, particularly in Africa and among the African diaspora. She is also the founder of the Dr. Olubusola Foundation, DOF, a registered NGO in Nigeria.
She is also the founder of Audacious Women of Purpose Global. Through this organization, she has empowered widows, counseled pregnant teens, and recruited consultants to spread the organization’s mission.
Her influence extends beyond individual counseling. She is an experienced missionary and dynamic speaker who has traveled the world, teaching and empowering primarily women, children, and youth. Her approach to healing and empowerment is holistic, focused on reconciliation, impact, and community building through mentoring programs, charitable outreach, mentoring, and training.
Significantly, her work is deeply rooted in her personal experiences and her desire to help others achieve healing and happiness, no matter the depth of their wounds.
Dr. O is a leading figure in the fields of holistic wellness and alternative medicine. She is the founder and CEO of FerFis Holistic Wellness, which operates in both the United States and Nigeria. Originally from Nigeria, Dr. Oluwaferanmi has traveled extensively, focusing on teaching and empowering women and youth around the world.
She is deeply committed to her mission of building a strong sense of community by reconciling, building and influencing both adults and youth to live healthy and fulfilling lives. Her holistic approach to wellness integrates physical, emotional and spiritual health, making her a sought-after expert in her field.
In addition to her wellness practice, Dr. O is also an author. Her book, “Enjoying Sexual Bliss in Your Marriage,” reflects her expertise in sex therapy and her commitment to helping couples achieve deeper intimacy and fulfillment in their relationships. Her second book, “Unmasking the Soul,” reflects Steps to freedom and healing from Domestic Abuse and Violence.
Her teachings often emphasize the importance of self-discovery, setting boundaries, and making conscious decisions, particularly in the context of relationships and marriage.
Her expertise in sex therapy suggests a contradiction between being a shepherdess of Christ and speaking boldly about human sexuality, especially in cross-cultural contexts.
The nature of her interventions, especially on human sexuality, crosses cultures, though both are in the 21st century. The United States, her adopted country, represents Western civilization, a culture that embraces liberalism, while Nigeria, her native nation, largely reflects a conservative African environment.
In Nigeria, a woman is expected to wear lipstick, carry a purse, and speak softly. Sexual topics are out of the question. While this scenario is gradually changing, it is a terrain to tread carefully. But Dr. O navigates it with knowledge and empathy. She offers guidance and therapy to help individuals and couples achieve satisfying and healthy sexual relationships.
Dr. O’s work is widely recognized and celebrated. She has been honored for her contributions to wellness and her efforts to support victims of domestic violence. Through her holistic wellness practice and charitable work, she continues to inspire and encourage people to live healthier, more balanced lives.
She is a respected holistic wellness practitioner with a comprehensive approach to health and wellness that integrates physical, emotional and spiritual aspects. She offers a variety of services designed to promote holistic health and personal growth through FerFis Holistic Wellness in both the United States and Nigeria.
According to Greg Anderson, one of America’s leading wellness advocates, “When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need to be fulfilled, by pure love that needs to be expressed, then we truly live life.” This is the story of Dr. O.
