Keynotes
OVERCOMING ADVERSITY
Themes: Inspiration, Mental Health, Mindset, Adversity, Mental Strength.
One thing is for sure, we all face adversity. We tend to look at adversity as this exoteric thing. Something... that happened to us. Either by society, a person, an event, an experience. Oftentimes, a traumatizing moment. What about the adversity we create in our minds against ourselves? Our negative thoughts. Our limiting perspectives. Our critical self-talk. After meeting her inner adversity, Christina vowed to overcome it. What she did was ferocious.
YOUR SCAR IS THE SEXIEST THING ABOUT YOU
Themes: Inspiration, Empowerment, Women's Motivation, Identity, Self-esteem, Mental Health.
Christina's resilient story about mental health, identity, and self-esteem will motivate you to shift your perspective on traumatic events and adversity to cross the bridge into fearless self-acceptance. Her story about facing her mortality at nineteen years old, surviving pancreatic cancer, and learning to live with the mental health effects of a thirteen-inch scar across her body will leave you thinking about your own scars. When you don't deal with your scars, they deal with you.
THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR MENTAL HEALTH
Themes: Mental Health, Mental Strength, Mindset, Inspiration, Personal Development.
Mental strength is invisible because our inner voice is invisible. Our scars are very often invisible. Our shame is invisible. The masks we wear protect us from the world, but the shame and pain we suppress dismantle our strength. How we speak to ourself, is a reflection of our mental health. Our mental health relies on our choice to heal our scars, embrace our humanity and understand that embodying vulnerability is our power.
YOU CAN'T BULLSHIT THE SOUL
Themes: Inspiration, Philosophy, Intuition, Spirituality, Instict, Self-responsibility.
That funny gut feeling. Do you trust it? Some call it, intuition, others call it instinct or impulse. Some, consider it spiritual, the soul. Others associate it with science as a calculated assessment. But most people believe their gut instinct is right, and surprisingly they don't listen to it. Christina did, and it saved her life. Her story explores the self-responsibility we have to follow our intuition, and why most people fear it.
Christina's story was compelling and inspirational. Her passion and purpose will motivate you to become the best version of yourself and to make a positive impact on the world.
