Crystal Flaman

Crystal Flaman is a Social Entrepreneur, Author, 12 x Ironman Triathlete and 273 km Ultra-marathoner. Her personal mission in life is to make a difference in the world, and she has raised over 1.4 million dollars for various charities through her work and athletic endeavours. She has completed the second hardest footrace in the world—a 273 km multi-day, self-supported, running race through the desert and scaling mountains, carrying all of her food, clothing and supplies that she would need throughout the race. Twice.

She is also the owner of the Kelowna International Hostel, an international travelers hostel in BC, Canada, and Inspiring Success Services Inc. She’s the creator of Imagine The Ripple Effect and the Inspiring Tin Of Wisdom, that now has seven different themes, as well as the author of The 90 Day Intentional Living Challenge and has recently written Living The Dream (Simple Ideas To Live A Long, Healthy and Happy Life).

Crystal’s ultimate purpose in life is to inspire others to discover their own unique gifts and talents and share them with the world. She believes that as we move from success towards significance in our own lives, sharing our innate talents and listening to our intuition, we may find true joy, happiness and satisfaction. She also believes that health is of utmost importance and that it’s time to put our health first in life, so that we may be able to live that long, healthy and happy life we dream of and hope for.

Crystal is the eighth child in a family of 10 children and grew up on a farm in Saskatchewan. She loves reading as much as possible, writing, exploring nutrition, alternative health and wellness along with camping, traveling, running long distances, cooking, playing the guitar (poorly) and singing (only when alone in the car).
