Dr. Kreslyn was diagnosed with Crohn's disease as a teenager and was terminally ill for most of her high school years. She was a single parent for several years of her adult life, and has known poverty first hand. She stands strong in her faith because she attributes that to her breaking free from all the chains that kept her bound in the early years of her life. Her life experiences, challenges, and victories are what spark her passion for loving and supporting as well as challenging others to fight to overcome hardship, particularly women, children, and the poor.

Her book, Fear Factor: Your 21 Day Journey to Freedom was released last year in May, 2015. Most of her writing is centered around themes like using one's faith or inner power; exercising courage; finding purpose; developing personal integrity, and offering visionary leadership. These are characteristics she find most useful in overcoming obstacles and living a life people desire. In addition to her duties of one-on-one coaching, writing, managing employees, conducting workshops and making speaking engagements, Dr. Kreslyn's enjoys reading, writing, cooking, traveling, watching the sunset and the sunrise, going to the movies, and strolls in the park.
