I'm a Health professional advocating for holistic approach to optimal health in Spirit, Soul & Body from a faith- based biblical perspective. To Stay Connected to the Vine, Stay Gorgeous & Stay Professional
I am Dr. Mrs Sandra Oyakhilome proudly nee' Miss Sandra Osei-Sarfo aka Sandra Oyaks aka Dr Oyaks.
I am daughter of the most High, Wife, Mother and a fully qualified dental surgeon & a Ghanaija for life (I am not the typical Ghanaian and I am not the typical Nigerian, I am a hybrid, one of a kind best of both worlds).
I obtained my degrees in Bsc Medical Sciences and Bachelor of Dental Surgery degree at University of Ghana Medical & Dental School.
All I know is at the age of 9, ‘I wanted to be a doctor’ later I found out there are two career pathways, physicians and surgeons, I ended up on the surgical pathway to be a dental surgeon and in my early 30s became a member of the Ghana College of Surgeons as an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon.
Then.......! Another Good News!!! I got pregnant as residency was rounding up, and when my peaceful joyful blessing arrived an opportunity came for my husband and I to relocate to Canada, the motherhood decision started, I had to start the whole process to get my licence to practice in Canada, It's been an interesting mentally and physically challenging journey and I can't wait to share all I have learnt.
I am on a journey to balance my role as a christian, wife, mother, daughter, sister, employee, employer, church member, neighbour, citizen and on a journey to become the best in my field, have financial freedom while ensuring I stay healthy and look good. Sounds like an impossible and exhausting task right?!
But that's the reality of where we find ourselves as moms so many shoes to fit in and not knowing where to start or even how to navigate it all that. It seems we spend all day at work and always feel like we were missing out on the world around us.
This break from my dental clinical practice, coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic has given me an opportunity to work on me. For the first time in my adult life, I prioritize my mental, emotional, spiritual, physical and environmental well-being. I dedicated my life to my wellness in a holistic way.
I find that whatever phase of my life having a holistic approach with faith in God, there is so much to overcome.
Working Moms often feel a pressure to push through their own hardships in order to take care of others. Prioritizing your own health helps ensure that stress won’t lead to more serious health concerns, and will also benefit those we interact with. Prioritizing your health first and foremost will make you a better employee and person.
I now want to help working moms adopt a vibrant, refined, and centered approach to simple living. I am on a mission to Educate, Encourage & Empower Working Moms on a Weight loss, Wellness & Wealth building journey to help them create a Work-Life Balance System they love to achieve their goals!
I hope this platform becomes a resource and support for working moms to help reduce mom guilt, show moms that they’re not alone, and empower mothers to find ways to cope with life’s challenges in a positive and healthy way by creating their 'after' stories on purpose.
It's a place where readers can find tips and guides to optimal health in spirit, soul & body from someone they’ve come to know as a friend and sister.
This journey will be different for every woman who travels it.
What will be the same is our final destination of becoming the woman God wants each of us to be.
If you want to work with an individual who truly practices what she preaches, who is educated, caring and methodical, I am your best choice.
