      COREY PRESTON BIOGRAPHY

      Corey Preston is an inspirational keynote speaker, mental health advocate & trauma recovery coach with over six years of experience with vulnerable populations. He is the founder of Mental Health Simplified. Corey has a vision of creating a universal language for mental health that anyone can understand, while also previously working as a Policy Advisor with the BC Government for Mental health & Addiction.

      An innovative leader that has spearheaded multiple campaigns for mental health awareness, and brought forward innovative strategies to improve the mental health care system. He overcame Complex PTSD and climbed off the streets over 8 years ago. Surviving gang life, homelessness and addiction.

      He brings a passion alongside a deep purpose to help those who were left behind and leverages his lived experience as a conduit to connect with those who suffer from mental health challenges.

      Corey Preston has a profound connection to Mental health, and for good reason. When he was a child he experienced countless traumas. His brain was injured severely and was diagnosed with “Complex Post Traumatic Stress”.

      Navigating life with an injured brain, and broken heart opened the door to many bad decisions. Including drug trafficking with organized crime, substance dependency and homelessness.

      Over six years ago Corey Preston pulled himself off the streets and was inspired by a close friend to join the Nonprofit sector. He faked it until he made it, but eventually, Corey Preston came back into his innocence and found his true self again.

      Corey Preston loves himself, feels his emotions and has turned his life into a spiritual, mental and physical laboratory for growth & development. The wisdom gained from surviving such merciless emotional pain has brought him to the most beautiful life he could ever ask for.

      Pain is the Master Teacher of Life. By using the gift of pain Corey Preston plan on inspiring millions to AWAKEN from their suffering. Pain does give back, and it’s his mission to communicate this through the power of storytelling.

      Corey Preston’s main aspirations right now are to refine and bring humility to his ego and become financially wealthy, speak at a keynote of 10k people, serve and inspire as many humans as possible (seems to be going well), live completely from my heart and travel the world in pursuit of spiritual wisdom.
