Leading with love is exactly how Dreka Gates approaches life. Raised in a Southern Baptist family, Dreka said goodbye to the church at the age of 13 against her parents’ wishes.

The multi-hyphenate mother, wife and entrepreneur encourages people to reach higher levels of consciousness and awareness by simply BEing better BEings.
Dreka first made a mark in the music industry in 2006 managing and developing multi-platinum selling artist and her husband, Kevin Gates. In 2010, the couple created BWA (Bread Winners’ Association) - the record label home to. As co-founder and CEO, Dreka led the touring and merchandise departments to multi-million-dollar success and expanded the label into a lifestyle brand. In 2022, Dreka retired as Kevin's manager to focus on other business endeavors.
Dreka unearthed a passion for health and found her true calling. Strategically, she’s built an empire of businesses, each with the intention of human betterment through a deeper connection to self. Her wellness line, DREKA, provides products to promote balance of the mind, body, and spirit, through the healing power of nature.

Why this worked as beautifully as it did
1) no jealousy
2) genuine female empowerment
3) divinely alignment of energy... both meeting at the right stages. Of their lives... dont force anything
4) love is the answer to all things
5) she let the guest speak
6) wise enough to listen and then reciprocate energy
7) the intention was clearly set... they both brought VALUE... without competition
8) they operated in their feminine * grown women tings
Thank you for restoring my faith on female friendships
THIS! ❤
This was beautifully summed up! 😊
@@tylynn256 thank you
“You’re born looking like your parents, but you die looking like your decisions.”
That’s sooooo good!!!!
Not everyone looks like their parents and heart attacks and cancer aren’t always decisions…
@@guapothefool3245 we know.
I heard that from td Jakes first
"I'm not playing small anymore"- that part 👏
Say so
Donni gets it. Can we just take a moment to appreciate how she asks questions appropriate to her guest! Interviewing is an art form and Donni gets it baby!
Came here as a fan of Dreka, now I’m a fan of both of these women. Donni is a phenomenal interviewer and host!
The way Dreka is about getting to the bag AND making sure her family gets everything they deserve in life AT THE SAME TIME… that’s got me pumped up! Literally recharged and ready to grow 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love how Dreka is so humble and confident at the same time. Shine baby ✨
Dreka and donni🔥🔥🔥🔥two smart , fire , independent beautiful women. This what my dream woman would look & sound like 😌
Aww thank you for tuning in with us! 😊
Amazing interview and such SKILL to know how to! You ladies are amazing🌞🌻👑👑
They’re both amazing. Humble and genuine. Not many women are, Sadly.
As a man i want a silent woman that is not in control. This makes no sense. U can't be a soft boss. Woman faking like they doing it but they will kick yo ass to curb so fast if things don't go their way. For the record Dreka and Kevin are on the rocks and have been since they have been actively preparing the farm due to power struggles and Donni dont have nor can she keep a man at 45. 45 bruh 🤔
@@meraribenlevi6245 hurt and traumatized
Dreka so fire she just did sign language so casually in the middle of her conversation 😩🔥
What time did she sign I missed it

Love it, Donni! “Some people use adderall, I use frequency music.”
💕💕💕
The “I can’t play small anymore” resonated with me so much! This conversation made me love her even more she dropped so many gems. Thank you to both of you for this amazing energy. We definitely need a part too
Omg!! Dreka is my FAVORITE person!!!!!! She’s the GOAT!!!
Goat!!! 👏🏽🙌🏽
I love Dreka man she been a real one since day 1. Her brand is unmatched
So so amazing! 🎉❤
Donni got in her Oprah Barbara Walter's bag. You are so gifted at connecting with people. Your empathy and compassion is very intentional. David has competition in the interviewer space .
I hope this turns into a women empowerment series. I will be waiting ❤” You not playing small anymore!”
I love me some Dreka! I absolutely needed this Episode. I opened up some blockages for me. I just ask God that my vision becomes more clear and I become the person he created me to be because I KNOW that I meant to be more. ❤ This was great m, thanks Donni! 😊
what God do yall serve? I mean He never instructed us to be of this world, to chase the finances of this world or for woman to be bosses of anything but their children. as a matter of fact we are to be unspotted or hidden from fame fortune or any type of glorification of self.
I’m so glad the blockages has lifted for you Queen after watching this it’s definitely one of the most powerful videos to watch in a while 💎💎
@meraribenlevi6245 King Salomon was rich though!
@@jk9084 yea and look how his story turned out
I told my husband dreka has the best freaking face , he just l👀ked @ me😂😂
Two Queens having a Cipher this is what We Need
Dreka is so humble, she said yes I home school, not Yes I built a school for my children in my back yard👑
As a sahm trying to figure out her feelings, thoughts, and next moves. I needed this amazing conversation between such innovative women!
Dreka needs her own podcast and books if she doesn’t already have them.
When she cried about leaving her children!! 😢😢😢😢😢 ❤❤❤❤❤❤
If mother nature was a person 💚 inspired isnt even the word!
So happy you enjoyed! ☺️
Donni is 45?! Omg! She looks amazing ❤❤
she looks 45 and she wears make up
What does makeup have to do with anything?! Clearly this beauty takes care of herself. She looks amazing to me for 45.
@@meraribenlevi6245you’re a hater! She does not look 45
She looks amazing… Donni is absolutely beautiful I don’t see 45 anywhere… I need to no her regime
@@probe1536 dang so you're saying that I can't have an opposing opinion without being labeled a hater? That's crazy on so many levels.
I’m a man married to a woman and I enjoyed this episode. Listening and understanding conversations like these are so refreshing.
I’m from Louisiana it makes me proud to see two Louisiana women beautiful and flourishing ❤
Dam are all of yall beautiful?

I love dreka she deserves more credit❤
This was the best interview I’ve ever watched! I love how Donni just talked with Dreka, like a girls night in! It made you forget it was an interview that’s incredible skill! The left arm jacket push then right arm jacket push then hair grab combo , I assume to calm
Your excitement, that you did throughout the whole interview cracked me up 🤣.
Words cannot describe how inspired and encouraged I feel just listening to Dreka. Thank you Donni.
"Some ppl use adderall, I use frequency music" Im dying. Me too Donni.
Between Dreka and Milano… I don’t know which one was the best but they are light and smart and beautiful and so are you!! Love❣️
I’m personally not a big fan of Donni’s personality but her and Dreka together is a vibe and such a pleasure to watch! Great episode 👏🏽👏🏽💚

Dreka & Donni 🤯🤯🤯🤯💜 need my future wife taking notes from these ladies while i learn a lil some too ✍🏾
You did amazing Donni! I’ve watched every Dreka interview there is and I’ve never seen her express this kind of emotion.
Great job ladies! 🫶🏽
My favorite parts of the show where her talking about self love meditation, her farm and journaling.
This is good because I’ve NEVER seen Dreka cry ever.
Two of my favorite women!! I’ve smiled, I’ve laughed, I’ve cried. This episode was so good!
Love this sista's spirit and even more because she's from my second home Baton Rouge!! (Im a Southern University and A&M college graduate)I felt her vibe on a higher level.. Southern hospitality, southern belle like energy but more current to today and not yesteryear? And that drive to excel and succeed got me hyped uo... keep growing and teaching young Queen.❤ #Blessings
I already loved Dreka… but I love her even more.. the vulnerability, her spirit and drive is so inspiring ❤️
I’ve found my tribe. 😢 I smiled from start to finish. 😊 This was like a breath of fresh air. 🥰❣️ More of this please….Just wow!

She deserves this!! Her side! Her voice and her issues! I lovvve this for her! You can tell this is healing for her!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🤍. She’s seem like an isolated person who probably not always getting her shine or spotlight!! ☀️☀️☀️☀️

I love dreka and I love the vibrations from this interview. It's giving women's retreat for peace and tranquility for me.
This was literally so beautiful to watch. Donni watching you speaking life into Dreka, made me feel like you were speaking life into me. I cried so much watching this left feeling so empowered. Thank you for this ladies. ❤
Out of all the interviews Dreka has done thus far I absolutely love this one the most! This interview was about dreka and who she is as a person! I love the questions that were asked. This conversation wasn’t about kevin.
Her many tips about loving on yourself and refilling stood out the most to me.
I play binaural beats as part of my night routine...energy matters so so much. Loved that part of the interview. This was great. Absolutely love Dreka Gates!
LOVED THIS , HURD THE PASSION IN DREKA VOICE !
Donni, this episode was absolutely necessary and I am so grateful that you opened this door to change our lives…wholeheartedly ❤️Dreka was so amazing & inspiring.
I love they Dreka stepped away from everything to become a more magnificent HER!
Dreka AND Donni?! Lawwwwd! 2 whole blessings!! 😩😩😩🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I want nothing but success for Dreka in her business endeavors great interview ❤
This interview was EVERYTHING! I just started following her on Ig last week. Her light shines so bright! She is so full! I love this! ❤
Wow Donni! First of all, great interview! Even as a man, I enjoyed this from start to finish. I’ve never seen this side of Dreka and had no clue how instrumental she has been to Kevin’s career. Thank you for this! Top 5 episode for sure 🔥
I can listen to Dreka all day love her ❤️
Y’all done made me cry! This was a duo I didn’t even know I needed. LOVE DREKA! & LOVE DONNI! Thanks so much for this 🥹🫶🏾
This might have been my most favorite podcast I've ever watched!!! ❤❤❤ Thank you both! We need more of this authentic Soul Tribe type of convos. No gossip, no tea, no mess. Just love.
Yes we do ❤❤❤
She’s so emotional 😩 it’s deeper than what we know. I feel her. I feel both of them on so many levels. I’ve been a Kevin Gates fan for years. Actually one of my fave rappers! She is the machine behind him and I can only imagine the work she has put in on the backend. Much love to her and all of our success as we navigate through this world 🥂
Very powerful conversation! I loved hearing her emphasize the importance of self-care. This is something that cannot be highlighted enough especially in the world of entrepreneurship.
Yes, trust yourself. Trust the vision. And lock in.
I looooooooovee this omg!!!! Her energy really is magnetic and i think the part that touched me the most is that she believed in her man and helped him with his dreams and now she’s taking the time to pursue hers but still being true to herself first and then being a wife and mom!!!! This was so positive, thank you ladies 🖤
This has been such a transformative interview for me. Thank you both for being so opening , honest and loving on each other.❤️🙌
I just love my Virgo Dreka she’s so wholesome.
❤❤❤❤ okay, I got a DOUBLE GIRL CRUSH!! 😍 It was the energy for me, the informativeness for me, the openess for me, I LOVED EVERY SINGLE BIT! This was the first time I watched this podcast. I am NOT disappointed and I'm now madly in love with Ms Wiggins❤❤❤ Keep spreading that love ladies! THIS is how we grow each other!❤❤❤❤
Wow! Same here I too imagined me being a Pediatrician at the age of 5 yrs old, but God is using me in other ways. I too always have and still do find it in my heart to help others. It takes a certain type of soul to take on the responsibility of helping people, even when you’re facing an “in the valley experience”. I know God only hand picked the “chosen ones” to complete a certain mission that needs to be fulfilled 🙏🏽
This conversation was really inspiring. Thank you, ladies! 💞
This was a great interview. I cant even say there was a best part. All of it, the energy, the honesty, the inspiration...I felt it all break through the screen!
This was such an uplifting & positive conversation to listen to ❤
I literally listens to frequency tones every morning & night it’s a must for my soul 💫💫💫
It’s the best! 🎉
Dreka is real life a role model ❤ I love her
This interview was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! From beginning to end. You can tell Dreka felt so comfortable and safe with you. Enough so that we saw another side to her. This was truly a Full Transparency interview 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️
Dreka is all around amazing, loving, sharing, and caring genuinely. She represents womanhood in the most positive light, and I appreciate her for that. Dreka, keep growing and glowing! Keep planting those seeds physically, spiritually, and mentally.
I needed this today. I have not been giving to myself, and I NEED to. Thank you, ladies, for telling your stories and being transparent because I definitely relate ❤❤❤❤
THIS WAS SO AWESOME AND UPLIFTING! ALL OF THE SMILES AND GIGGLES…LOVED IT!!!
Love Dreka!!! She shines so bright!!!❤
I love Dreka. She is so grounded, humble, and seems to just be an awesome person.
