Dr. Makeba Cortua, coined the "Purpose Pusher", is an astute Christian business professional and creative entrepreneur. Founder of Purpose over Popularity©, a global movement serving as a launching pad for women of purpose, Makeba is passionate about building platforms and curating environments for women to thrive- physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, and spiritually. Her coaching company, Live on Purpose, guides women over the age of 40 on a journey to discovering & embracing her place in God's purpose through spiritual development and personal transformation. 

 

Makeba is an erudite educator and scholar, talented conversationalist, proficient author, engaging speaker and the host of The Healthy Woman Podcast©, a platform created to engage transformative, holistic health conversations that women aren't traditionally given the freedom to talk about. Her podcast can be viewed on YouTube and heard on Apple and Spotify streaming platforms.

 

Makeba attributes her devoted commitment to spiritually developing women to live a life of divine purpose for God, to God's love for her. "The reason why I serve women over 40 is because at 40, I was still serving myself while also mindlessly serving God. I felt that there was more to my life but because I didn't have clarity or a mentor, I settled for the ambition of what I knew and became extremely susceptible to the influence of who/what was popular.  Through and after a series of life experiences and hard times over a 10-year span, The Lord arrested and convicted me with a new outlook and a will to pursue His purpose over worldly popularity...and I haven't looked back since. I strongly believe that it is right around the age of 40 that many women begin to feel a shift in how they view the purpose of life."
