Cleoni Crawford - a woman on a mission. Conqueror of challenges. Mental health advocate. A leader in her own right. Cleoni is a U of T, George Brown College, and Centennial College graduate who has become a young, passionate and resilient entrepreneur and speaker on a mission to raise awareness about mental health by courageously telling her story in a new book entitled “The Music of My life.” Due to unfortunate circumstances that would take the lives of her sister and sister’s best friend, Cleoni’s struggle with mental illness inspired her to take a leap of faith and devote her life to mental health awareness.
Cleoni is no stranger to MEDIA! She has been featured in 100 Huntley Street, Daytime Toronto on Rogers TV, the 2009 Summer Company Commercial, CTV, Global TV, CBC Radio, Toronto Life, Globe and Mail, Shimmerzine Magazine, the North York Mirror, Snap, the cover of the George Brown College Newspaper, The Dialog, The Pregnancy Care Centre Podcast, The Blind Stigma Podcast and the Marvia Providence Podcast.
Her journey to recovery has propelled her to further her studies at Centennial College in the Addictions and Mental Health program where she obtained her diploma in 2023. Since being diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2006, she has been hospitalized 31 times, homeless, incarcerated, and suicidal. Despite this, she has taken her story to fuel her passion to give back as a mental health advocate, speaker and serial entrepreneur. Through her life and her initiatives, she hopes that she will show others that a diagnosis is not a death sentence but in fact that you can strive, thrive and live an abundant life despite your illness.
