Biography
I am Atinuke Babalola, and I hail from Emure Ekiti, Nigeria. I graduated from the university with an outstanding academic record in my first degree, winning the Edema Prize for the Best Student in the Faculty as well as the University Prize for the Best Female Student. I also distinguished myself academically at both the Master's and Ph.D. levels in the Department guidance and counseling, University of Ado-Ekiti, now Ekiti state University (EKSU).
I am one of the very few professionally trained counsellors in Nigeria, equipped with comprehensive professional training that enables me to make a meaningful impact on clients and young people, helping them achieve positive transformation in their personal, marital, educational, and professional lives.
As a life and marriage coach, I am widely recognized for my meticulous attention to detail. My area of specialization focuses on preparing singles for marriage and equipping married couples with the knowledge and skills needed to enjoy lasting happiness and fulfillment in their homes.
I am a sought-after speaker at marriage, relationship, and youth conferences, where I share practical insights and inspire individuals to build healthy relationships and purposeful lives.
I am happily married to Pastor Stephen Babalola, and we are blessed with children. Currently, I lecture at the Federal University Oye-Ekiti, department of Guidance nd counselling, Faculty of Education.
