Empowering people to take control of their health through nutrition and mindfulness is the passion that drives Denishi Blake's career.  As a young adult, the now respected wellness program designer, certified health coach, plant-based vegan chef and smoothie bar operator made a life-changing realization — Food can either heal you or kill you. This understanding inspired Denishi to make the leap from a career in business to one where she can help prevent others from enduring unnecessary hardships, an experience she knows all too well.  As early as 14 years old, Denishi began losing close family members. These deaths impacted her profoundly and left her believing there had to be a better solution than just letting disease run its course.  A few years later, Denishi watched her mother, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer, fight, and ultimately conquer, her disease through smart food choices, especially fresh juiced daily smoothies.  Intrigued, Denishi thought, if her mom could use whole plant-based foods to help heal her body, maybe there was more power in nutrition than she initially understood. With this experience spurring her on, Denishi set out to learn everything she could about the healing power of nutrition.  She knew one of the many things all humans have in common is the need to eat food, but she wanted to know more about what is in our food, how it's grown and what chemicals are used in its production.  Denshi had experienced her own share of health issues,including eczema, abdominal issues, and fatigue. Like many others, Denishi consistently received one prescription recommendation after another from countless medical professionals. However, these so-called remedies never truly worked, and she was tired of it. Instead of more prescriptions, Denishi decided to test her growing nutritional knowledge on herself. As she began to implement what she was learning about nutrition, the better she felt. Ecstatic and on a renewed quest to know more, she enrolled at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition to become a certified health coach. In 2014, inspired to make a difference with her new expertise, Denishi started a new health and wellness company serving clients in Northern California-- Peace, Love and Light. Peace, Love and Light educates, enlightens and empowers people to take control of their health through nutrition coaching, meal prep planning and mindfulness coaching. Today, Denishi works to help her clients understand that the lack of education around food is causing the bulk of sickness, breaking down complex food science so that clients can apply it and regain control of their health. A unique extension of Peace, Love and Light, the Pedal Powered Smoothie Bar, was. born out of this passion for healing people!mone smoothie at a time, opened around the same time as the company.    When she's not working with Peace, Love and Light or the Pedal Powered Smoothie Bar, Denishi can be found reading, attending seminars, traveling, learning about new cultures or practicing self care. Currently, one of her favorite leisure endeavors is learning French.  Instagram: @pedalpoweredsmoothies @peaceloveandlight11   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pedalpoweredsmoothiebar/https://www.facebook.com/peaceloveandlight111/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dr-ds-social-network/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy &amp; Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/darian-parker/message
