📝 About the Guest
Christiana Adesanmi spent two decades in healthcare, nearly a decade as an operating room nurse, leading surgical teams, managing multi-million-dollar technology, and onboarding top surgeons. But her biggest transformation wasn’t in the OR—it was in betting on herself and stepping into entrepreneurship.

Rising from a nurse’s aide to a respected leader, she graduated with honors, was inducted into Sigma Nursing Honor Society, and thrived as a travel nurse, managing teams and optimizing surgical departments. Her leadership was so impactful that a hospital offered her a six figure permanent position—but she turned it down.

Why? Because she knew she was meant for more.

Instead of climbing the corporate ladder, she built her own. Today, as CEO of COA Enterprises, Christiana helps small businesses scale through SEO, paid ads, websites, and reputation management—leveraging the same precision and leadership that made her a top-performing nurse.
