CHRISTY DAWN WHIPPLE
Don't Just Survive: Thrive.
Christy Dawn Whipple is a global marketing founder, business consultant, and motivational speaker known for blending heartfelt storytelling with practical strategy. As the creative force behind Studio C Marketing, she leads a diverse international team serving clients across tourism, healthcare, creative, and B2B service industries, with a special interest in nonprofit work and mission-driven organizations.

Her keynotes are crafted to meet audiences where they are, personally, professionally, and emotionally, and guide them toward where they want to be.
But Christy’s message isn’t just built on expertise; it’s built on lived experience.
At just 19 years old, Christy received a life-altering diagnosis: a chronic autoimmune disorder that doctors said would limit her future. She was told to expect a life of pain management, missed opportunities, and diminished dreams. Even her career aspirations were dismissed as unrealistic. For years, she lived under the weight of that prognosis—navigating physical pain, emotional exhaustion, and the quiet grief of a life she feared might never unfold.
But something in her refused to settle.
Determined not to let her diagnosis define her, Christy began a journey of healing, one rooted in faith, curiosity, and resilience. She became her own advocate, diving into research, strengthening her faith, exploring integrative wellness, and rebuilding her life from the inside out. Along the way, she discovered that thriving isn’t something you wait for; it’s something you choose, even in the middle of the mess.
Today, Christy has built a life she loves. She married her best friend, spends much of the year living abroad, leads a successful global business, maintains an active lifestyle, and has traveled to 55 countries (and counting).
Her story is proof that setbacks don’t define us; our response to them does.
Whether she’s speaking to women’s organizations, corporate teams, or leadership retreats, Christy equips audiences with tools to rise above adversity, lead with authenticity, and thrive in every season. Her style is warm, strategic, and deeply relatable, making her a favorite among organizations seeking inspiration with substance.
