EP 104: Mental Health Journey

Drea Anoka is a Bioelectric Plant-Based Chef, Holistic Health and Mindset Mentor. Drea is here this week to talk to us about her mental health journey and how she deals with mental health in an alternative way. Self-taught plant-based private chef, food alchemist, entrepreneur, and holistic health and mindset expert, Drea’s dark past lead her down a road of self-discovery, healing, and numerous death/rebirth cycles that woke her up to her true purpose of helping others wake up to who they really are. Her commitment to serving and teaching about high-vibrational plant-based food, holistic healing, and harmonious living are a result of her overcoming years of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, toxic patterns of alcohol abuse, self-sabotage, a 10+ year eating disorder, codependency, a nearly failed marriage, sexual abuse, suicide attempts, domestic violence, homelessness, and more. After deciding to quit taking her prescription meds cold turkey, embarking on a journey of plant-based living, cultivating her understanding of spirituality, and discovering what living in full alignment with self really means, Drea has made it her mission to speak her truth while sharing her self-healing wisdoms, techniques, and modalities. Not only does she serve her clients luxurious plant-based food and teach them how to adopt a plant-based diet through her business The Alkalign Lifestyle Cafe, she also assists her husband, business partner and co-founder of The Alkalign Lifestyle Wellness Center in helping people detoxify their minds and bodies to allow the divine spirit from within to be expressed. Drea is passionate about the mind and uncovering the innate abilities we have as a collective to create radical change no matter what circumstance stands in our way. https://alkaligncafe.com / https://alkalignlifestyle.comFifty Shades of Bullshit is broadcast live Thursdays at 4PM PT.Fifty Shades of Bullshit is viewed on Talk 4 TV (www.talk4tv.com).Fifty Shades of Bullshit is broadcast on K4HD Radio – Hollywood Talk Radio (www.k4hd.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (www.talk4radio.com) on the Talk 4 Media Network (www.talk4media.com).
