About

#MoCrazyStrong

I’m Jamie MoCrazy, a keynote speaker and resilience advocate. I tell my unique stories to help the audience understand how to be resilient when encountering crises. My story is a true account of unexpected trauma and the strategies I learned you can implement into your life.

I founded the nonprofit MoCrazy Strong Brain Injury Foundation and work in collaboration with my mom and sister to improve TBI recovery opportunities with an understanding of the science behind mind-body medicine leading to a better quality of life. I am very invested in the neuro trauma community; I interface between MedTech companies, doctors, scientists, and patients.

What is my message?

How to have the resilience to climb an alternative peak after a metaphorical avalanche slides you to the mountain's base.

How do I do it?

Through keynotes, the audience is motivated to change their mindset and set up new attainable goals to be their own personal best.

Who do I do it for?

I have delivered motivational keynotes to corporations, associations, entrepreneurs, and medical school/university groups. I have delivered in person as well as virtual. I am the ideal candidate for anyone that is having a conference, meeting or convention where they are looking for a high-energy speaker to deliver content to inspire and educate their workforce. I am based out of Salt Lake City, Utah and am willing to travel globally.

What makes me different from all the other motivational speakers?

I am sharing life lessons I learned from first-hand experience combined with years of learning about resilience and neuro trauma. My keynote speaking fees support the mission of our foundation in improving opportunities for millions of individuals recovering from brain injury.

I know what it took to become the first female in the world to compete a double flip in a slopestyle run (2013 X-Games) and I deliver my presentations with the same groundbreaking attitude. I give actionable content and am open and refreshing. Finally, I can turn a serious event into a surprisingly funny and uplifting presentation.

My Story

On April 11, 2015, I crashed at world tour finals and fell into a coma. I partially severed my right brain stem, paralyzing my right side. Thus, began the most dramatic chapter in my life. I went from being one of the best skiers in the world to relearning how to walk, talk and swallow water. I learned how to fail, on the verge of death, and dream again. I learned how to be resilient enough to climb an alternative peak.

    Motivation | Overcoming Adversity

    Is your company experiencing a merger or a change in leadership? Are you questioning how to adapt to the future of work after COVID-19, or how to rebuild your company identity in a new market? How will you regain your success? Jamie had to learn how to rebuild her identity and basic motor skills after her accident and brain injury. Her presentation helps audiences develop personal and team resilience in the face of uncertainty. Along with her inspirational story, Jamie provides actionable takeaways the audience can apply to their own situations. 

    Female Empowerment

    In order to become the first woman in the world to double flip at X-Games, Jamie had to believe she could perform at her own personal best.  "Be your own personal best" is a mantra that Jamie's mom imparted to her at an early age. She was taught to never let society's expectations influence her dreams about what she could accomplish, and her dream of becoming a world-class skier came true through hard work and consistency. Jamie loves speaking to women's groups and will customize her presentation format and focus areas depending on the group's goals. 

    TBI medicine and recovery

    According to a study by Finkelstein and colleagues, the cost to society from traumatic brain injury is 76.5 billion dollars annually. Acquired brain injury is the second most prevalent disability in the US estimated at 13.5 million Americans. Brain injuries are frequently not identified and go untreated. Jamie gives a voice backed by science to the invisible struggles of TBI survivors, and shares her own six-step system for recovering from a TBI.
