Alex Bishop: Getting Better is a Process

"I provide advisory services to Women and BIPOC businesses leaders to help them. Access Capital (> $10mm check/cheque size, Grant Writing) Make Acquisitions Form Partnerships Lobby Government My Why My Belief: People who have a voice and a platform have an obligation to leverage it for the benefit of others. My Journey has been decades of struggle with addiction and mental health after abusive childhood. I have been lucky enough to be sober since 2011. I have two amazing children of mixed European – Iraqi descent. I have volunteered on the front line and have seen the effects of mental health on the most vulnerable. Out of this was part of a group that created $200MM mental health funding. Later I supported the creation of legislation enshrining First Responder Training and Overdose Prevention. This year, I co-authored a free book helping leaders with the Psychological Effects of COVID. I have worked in First Nation communities, have seen the effects of multi-generational trauma, have helped to build a Foodbank, Community Centres, Economic and Employment Opportunities for Indigenous Peoples."
