THE TOPIC

The brain drain of the web is undeniable. When not used mindfully, our tech can sap our focus, productivity, creativity and, ultimately, our impact. Embracing the Joy of Missing Out is essential for success in all aspects of how we love, live, parent and lead. Joy, by definition, is “the emotion evoked by well-being, success and the prospect of possessing what one desires.” It’s what each of us wants.

Christina shares powerful strategies for cultivating joy and missing out on the right things so we can thrive at home, in our communities and at work.

"From the moment I approached Christina Crook to discuss the opportunity of hosting a DRIVE session she was nothing but professional, engaged, and extremely collaborative. Christina created a presentation specifically for DRIVE which was all about building awareness when it comes to social media consumption. Christina skillfully helped attendees glimpse into how they passively consume media and reevaluate their consumption through articulating their values.    

Christina has an ability to connect with people immediately and finds commonalities that make her extremely relatable. Christina’s relatability was key in helping breaking down the shyness in the room successfully leading to vulnerable and open conversations between attendees. The session was flawlessly executed. It received much positive feedback from attendees--so much so that I had colleagues anecdotally bringing up points from the session in conversations months later.

I would recommend Christina Crook to anyone looking for a motivational/inspirational speaker."     

- Madison Hall Sikorski, Brand Strategist & Drive Founder @ Cossette, 2018 Agency of the Year

 
 

"I recently had the privilege of moderating a panel that Christina participated in for Ivy League students. She brought a high level of professionalism to the panel, as well as a wealth of knowledge in the field of journalism.  She is undoubtedly an expert in her field, and is a pleasure to work with and learn from!”  

- Kristen Ottaviano, Ministry Fellow at Dartmouth, Nexus Conference at Yale

 
 

“I love how present Christina was at our conference. It means a lot when someone comes and really embraces the event and delves deep into connecting with people."

- Darian Kovacs, Co-founder, Canadian Internet Marketing Conference

 
 

"We loved Christina's talk.  She hit the mark on every level and was just the perfect thing we were looking for. My leadership team and I felt it was the highlight of the year and a great way to go out with a huge bang. Everything Christina said was so rich and full. I would like to explore bringing Christina up to Ottawa for something larger next year."  

- Terry Long, Founder, Quiet Pools Leaders Circle, Ottawa
