Why Oge

A Message That Reframes How We Think About Maternal Health

Oge Akinola is a maternal wellness pioneer, researcher, and mother of four whose work challenges one of the most overlooked assumptions in maternal healthcare: that preparation begins at the clinic door.

Anchored by her signature concept, The Pregnancy Before Pregnancy™, and her patent-filed PRS Index™, Oge blends rigorous research with storytelling that moves audiences. She doesn't just inform — she shifts how people understand maternal health entirely, leaving every room more hopeful, more aware, and ready to act.

  • The shift from reactive to proactive maternal health
  • Practical first steps any woman can take, at any stage

Best for: Women's gatherings, Healthcare forums, Faith communities, Wellness events.

Before the Clinic Door

A thought-leadership keynote for healthcare professionals, researchers, and policy-minded audiences. Oge makes the evidence-based case that preconception care has been built almost exclusively for clinical settings — and presents the PRS Index™ as a model for closing that gap.

Audiences leave with

  • A fresh framework for where maternal health interventions fall short
  • The case for non-clinical, community-based preconception care
  • A vision for scalable, self-administered readiness tools

Best for: Medical conferences, Academic institutions, Public health forums..

Body, Heart & Faith

  • A practical model for building lasting health habits
  • Renewed motivation to take ownership of their journey

Best for: Leadership events, Women's summits, Wellness programmes..
