“Every scar carries a seed of strength.”
— Victoria Tenin Audu Zubairu
I am an educator, content creator, and passionate advocate for women’s empowerment, adult literacy, and parenting education. After enduring 11 years of infertility and eight heartbreaking miscarriages, my personal journey has become a beacon of hope for countless women facing silent struggles.
My experience in the academic world as a lecturer and former Head of the General Studies Department at a prestigious seminary in Ilorin, Kwara State, shaped my commitment to lifelong learning and community empowerment. However, after voluntarily resigning from the seminary, I embarked on a transformative journey marked by miraculous motherhood, personal growth, and a calling to make a difference beyond the classroom walls.
It was during a period of bed rest, after my resignation and newfound pregnancy with my first child, that I discovered the power of digital skills. Rather than sink into despair, I embraced online learning, mastering video editing, graphic design, animation, and copywriting. These skills, along with my profession as a linguist, became tools for my greater mission: educating and empowering others.
After giving birth to my second child, I launched a YouTube channel dedicated to parenting, fertility awareness, and women’s empowerment. In January 2025, I further expanded my reach by becoming visible on Facebook, where I now share rich content on skill acquisition, business development, adult literacy, relationships, and parenting.
Championing Women’s Education and Vocational Empowerment
Long before my online journey, I was already planting seeds of change. As a founding member and facilitator at a Women’s Literacy and Vocational Centre, I helped hundreds of women access education, entrepreneurship, and practical life skills, empowering them to become economically independent and socially confident. Today, I continue this mission online by breaking barriers, correcting misconceptions about infertility, and encouraging women to take bold steps toward self-development and resilience.
Speaking on balancing her roles as a pastor’s wife, mother, civil servant, and content creator, she says it is not without its challenges. But my faith and passion have made me remain undeterred. I understand that building a legacy requires dedication, and I pour myself into every video, article, and training I offer. Despite the curiosity from some who wonder why she devotes so much energy to online advocacy.
I have a future vision of expanding my initiatives to include mentorship programs, skills acquisition hubs for women, and adult literacy and fertility campaigns.
