The Behind the Confident Smile Podcast is a weekly conversation with Bianca Cotton, founder of the Behind the Confident Smile, author, wife, mom, poet, and hope dealer. Join me on this journey of revealing what's behind your smile. We will have special guests, some poetry, and inspiration.
This week Crystal and Bianca had a great conversation about foster care advocacy, writing, and the arts. She shares a poem, too!
Crystal Williams is a national speaker, poet, foster care advocate, and foster care alumna. She uses the arts to promote individual and community change. Crystal graduated from Emory University with a B.A. in English/Creative Writing/Theater Studies and received her MBA from Georgia State University with a focus in organizational management. Crystal decided to focus her career on helping organizations operate more efficiently so that families can thrive. This interest has allowed her to work with national and international organizations in the areas of marketing and communications, strategy and implementation, fundraising and community mobilization, and training and curriculum development. She also directed a theater company for the teen ministry of an international ministry working directly with youth and creative design.
Crystal has served as a member of Georgia Governor’s Council for child welfare reform, she is certified in Life Stories® Theatre curriculum through the Theatre Lab in Washington D.C., and she is a founding member of an advocacy group for foster youth in Georgia called Georgia EmpowerMEnt.
