About Me

As an award-winning author of several Christian books and a highly sought-after inspirational speaker, Damola Treasure Okenla is dedicated to uplifting others mentally, spiritually and emotionally. A certified life coach and transformational prayer strategist, she has mastered helping her clients grow and develop spiritually into the men and women they are called to be in the earth.

Her organization, like her books, is a small reflection of her passion and mission for the advocacy of spiritual freedom and empowerment.
As an ordained minister, she served as an associate pastor, teacher, counselor, coordinator for women ministry, and intercessor for over 25 years at the Redeemed Christian Church of God.

In her last ministerial assignment, which was at Jesus House Chicago, Damola served as the lead intercessor and coordinated prayer ministry events under the leadership of the senior pastor.
