25 Years of Inspiring Change
I’ve been speaking for nearly 25 years, mostly to youth in schools, and I've learned that every person wants a sense of belonging and connection. Since high school, I've shared a true story that moves people to their core. It has given me a unique position to hear thousands of stories involving people's worst pains and traumas as well commitments to positive change.

Stillness
When you are connected to who you are and why you are here, you walk in power. But we have to quiet the forty to sixty thousand thoughts running through our brains. Amidst the chaos of modern life, Craig encourages students to disconnect from distractions, quiet their minds, and listen to their spirit.
Emotional Resilience
We often focus on physical resilience, but how do we cultivate mental resilience? How do we gain mastery over our emotions rather than allowing them to control us?
Translating Emotions
There are four primary negative emotions—anger, fear, sadness, and anxiety - which can neurologically translate into determination, courage, appreciation for life, and excitement.
Respect
Respect serves as the cornerstone of any positive environment. When individuals feel respected, they are more likely to contribute their unique perspectives and ideas. This inclusivity leads to richer discussions and innovation, driving collective success.
Connection
Creating connections involves actively engaging with one another, whether through shared experiences, team-building activities, or community service projects. These interactions not only personalize relationships but also create lasting bonds that enhance teamwork and mutual support.
Unity
Strengthening unity is crucial, particularly in diverse settings. Emphasizing common goals and shared values helps to bridge divides and fosters a sense of belonging. Encouraging dialogue around challenges and achievements alike allows us to celebrate our differences while recognizing our shared humanity.
Inspire Character and Strengthen Unity
Let’s work together to foster respect, create connection, and strengthen unity in your school, workplace, or family.
