Dr. Olubunmi Aboaba is a recognised leader in holistic wellness and recovery, and she is valued for her compassionate approach. Born and raised in Leeds, Yorkshire, her authentic northern personality makes her a relatable and trusted presence in the wellbeing and recovery space.
Her practice is deeply shaped by her own story. After overcoming a 17-year struggle with alcohol addiction and burnout, Dr. Aboaba found her true calling: guiding others toward healing, balance, and renewed energy. She believes recovery is not one-size-fits-all and tailors her support to each individual’s needs, combining scientific insight with holistic techniques.
Her diverse expertise includes certifications in sober coaching, food addiction counselling, Reiki, crystal healing, bioresonance, and bio-electromagnetic therapy. She works with a wide range of clients, from ex-prisoners to Emmy Award winners, all drawn to her inclusive and transformative methods. In 2023, she was honoured with the Platinum Award for Best Holistic Therapy.
Dr. Aboaba is also a keynote speaker and multi-author, and in January 2025, she launched her podcast Your Sober Sweet Spot, which explores practical and empowering conversations around recovery from addiction, burnout, and anxiety.
Her personal life reflects the holistic values she brings to her work. An avid rower who once crossed the English Channel, she also enjoys yoga, gym workouts, and creating peaceful spaces through crystal-inspired interior design. These lifestyle choices support her belief in everyday balance, energy awareness, and living with intention.
From high-performance athletes to creatives, her clients consistently highlight her ability to unlock deep, lasting transformation. Dr. Aboaba continues to inspire others through her unique blend of lived experience, professional training, and genuine care.
