A Recipe for Change Feat. Valerie Van Galder, CEO of Depressed Cake Shop

from Coming From The Heart · host Coming From The Heart Podcast™

Meet my friend, Valerie Van Galder, a mental health advocate and the CEO of Depressed Cake Shop, a 501(c)(3) organization that has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and priceless awareness for charities around the world. In addition to her work with Depressed Cake Shop, Val is also on the Board of Directors for St. Joseph Center in Venice, California and is a member of the Motion Picture Academy.  Val’s mission with Depressed Cake Shop is “to bake the world a better place by raising mental health awareness”. Taking a mental health break saved her life, and she reflects upon her and her family’s personal struggles with mental health. As we chat further, we discover Val’s "superpower" is giving a voice to those who experience mental health conditions and make sure they don't have to encounter the same difficulties she had. Thank you, Val, for sharing your journey as an accomplished, award-winning, and versatile executive with over 25 years of experience in publicity, film marketing, producing, journalism, social media and brand building experience. Thank you Val for being on the podcast! We thoroughly enjoyed hearing your stories on running the Hard Rock Cafe under founder Peter Morton, and your time on the marketing team for Searchlight Pictures and Sony Screen Gems. We're excited to have you be a part of the CFTH community, and are looking forward to our future Women’s Health Collaboration in April!
