JUDY CROON BIOGRAPHY

Judy Croon is Canada’s Keynote Humourist—a comedian, motivational speaker, podcast host, and former Second City stand-up coach who helps people laugh, learn, and lighten up before they burn out. Known for blending heartfelt insights with stand-up-level punchlines, Judy empowers teams and leaders with the tools they need to manage stress, build resilience, and reconnect with joy in high-pressure environments. Her keynote presentations are a hit with corporations, educators, healthcare professionals, and public sector leaders alike. With a background in comedy and broadcasting, Judy brings the rare ability to entertain while delivering practical, science-backed takeaways that stick.

Judy’s professional career is as impressive as it is diverse. She has shared the stage with comedy legends such as Joan Rivers, Jon Stewart, and John Cleese, and has performed on major networks including NBC, CBS, CTV, and The Comedy Network. As a former morning radio host in Toronto, Ottawa, and Los Angeles, Judy has honed her skills in engaging audiences across multiple platforms. Today, her keynote clients include organizations such as the Canadian Olympic Committee, TEDx, Hydro One, AstraZeneca Canada, GoodLife Fitness, and Canada Border Services. These clients consistently praise her presentations as “exceptional,” citing her ability to combine humour with insight, empathy, and relevance.

Her most in-demand keynotes include Relieving Work-Related Stress with Humour, Dealing with People Who Aren’t as Perfect As Us, and Leading with Laughter. These sessions draw from her acclaimed framework, The 7 Ingredients of Mental Wellness—a practical, accessible model for enhancing wellbeing, teamwork, and workplace culture. Judy’s delivery blends storytelling, neuroscience, and audience interaction with laugh-out-loud moments that make complex topics like mental health and resilience both accessible and engaging. She also offers breakout sessions and half-day workshops to dive deeper into emotional intelligence, mindset, and the role of humour in effective communication.

Beyond the stage, Judy is the host of the podcast Laugh Long and Prosper, which was named one of CTV’s “Best Podcasts of 2021.” The show combines self-help strategies, interviews with experts and celebrities, and comedy segments designed to uplift and inspire. Judy is also the co-author of From the Stage to the Page: Life Lessons from Four Funny Ladies, and her comedy album Judy Croon Live is featured on SiriusXM. As a coach, she has helped countless professionals—especially women—develop the confidence to communicate, present, and lead with authenticity and humour.

Judy’s commitment to wellbeing extends into her community. She is a long-time volunteer with City Street Outreach, a grassroots organization supporting Toronto’s most vulnerable populations with food, clothing, and compassion.
