As the Creator of Inspiring Brands Academy®, I love helping women succeed.
I've spent 20+ years managing a multi-million dollar business, building global brands, and being an online marketer. For over a decade, I've been a digital entrepreneur, a pro lifestyle blogger + social media influencer, grew my online community to over 300k followers (including celebrities, magazine editors, and industry leaders), got featured in books, in top publications, and on television, have worked with hundreds of the world's leading brands (inc. Oscar de la Renta, Ulta Beauty, Cynthia Rowley, Estée Lauder, and Reebok), and have written for multiple magazines including Entrepreneur. Drawing from all my years of experience, I'm here to teach you what I know, so you can more easily and quickly create, launch, and grow your business using online branding and marketing strategies and tools that are proven to work.
Just remember - anything is possible when you believe in it and when you're open to learning. That said - I'm excited to help you turn your dreams into a reality!

words of praise

"Christina-Lauren is wonderful to work with. Not only does she deliver beautiful content, created according to client guidelines, but she is also on time and a true pro in the influencer space. What makes Christina-Lauren stand out as one of our favorite influencers to work with is her engaged audience and ability to drive sales - in fact, on a recent campaign for a luxury item, she was our top performer."
TIFFANY ROMERO

"Christina is one of the sharpest minds in marketing today. She performs at a level that most can't. She understands how the world really works today and is incredibly proactive and insightful. My only caution is: be ready. She brings a "make it happen" mindset that is unrivaled."

On countless collaborations, she has helped both myself and my company stand out and make a name for ourselves in the community.
