Christina Parker~Leadership Expert ~ CEO New Beginnings Training and Development

We are so proud to have Christina Parker as the CEO and Founder of New Beginnings Training.  Christina started her career of empowering and motivating others over 10 years ago when she started her training and consulting business, New Beginnings. She broadened her influence of empowerment when she accepted the position as the Senior Vice President of Bruster's Real Ice Cream, a franchise that was voted in the top 500 franchises by Entrepreneurial Magazine. Christina's mission is to utilize her strengths and talents to empower others' through education, identification of opportunities, and advocacy. "When you are empowered, you truly start to control your destiny. Destiny is a matter of choice and not chance…" is a frequent statement heard from Christina as she is talking with her audiences. When it comes to real world experience and techniques that work, Christina is the premiere trendsetter.

Christina has a passion for empowering others so they can build resiliency, so that when adversities in life or business come, they are prepared to survive them. As parents of two young children, she and her husband experienced adversity first hand in 2003 when she was diagnosed with cancer. Her first experience with "the C word" was at 30 years old when her mother was diagnosed with cancer and passed away 4 months later. Within months of her mother's death, Christina was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer. Relying on her own resiliency, when her first doctor told her she would not live, she hired a new set of doctors and went on to beat the odds. After many months of chemotherapy and 16 surgical procedures later she is here to share her motivational testimony. Through the experience of her cancer she teaches audiences to see that success is possible in their lives, despite any changes or circumstances they may be facing. Christina's story of determination and unflinching courage has been featured in many publications and television as she shares her experience with others in an effort to help enhance their lives.
