Victoria Reynolds is an international speaker, best-selling author, personal self-worth mentor and human rights advocate. She has taken the focus of her work into the entertainment industry. Victoria's first book, "Transcending Fear: The Journey to Freedom and Fulfillment" is her story of overcoming the fear-based beliefs that were ingrained in her as a child in an extreme, fundamentalist religion. Victoria was born into a fundamentalist, polygamist, religious cult in the mountains of Montana where she was taught unwavering dedication to the men in charge and to their narcissistic, misogynistic, homophobic and racist God. As a result of this belief system she endured every manner of personal abuse. At the age of seventeen she found herself having to choose between suicide and a life in the outside world she had been taught her entire life to fear. She now uses her story and personal experiences to teach others how to get past their past, own their true value and create a life they love. She is also a human rights activist who is focused on ensuring that human rights take precedence over religious freedoms. Victoria has been a featured expert on many television, radio and print programs including Discovery Investigation, More Magazine and The Shriver Report. She was named VIP Woman of the Year by National Association of Professional Women, and is an Honored Member of the Continental Who's Who. She has won numerous awards for her public speaking presentations and has been recognized for her personal contribution to the rights of women and children. She insists that her greatest achievement to date is learning how to love all of life despite its many imperfections.
