Krystal Lee, MTS

Public Theologian of Economic Life & Influence

I’m a media maven, public theologian, and founder. I’ve spent my life in visible spaces—radio, television, stages, and leadership rooms—often seen as successful, accomplished, and “doing well.”

What most people didn’t see was how unstable my relationship with money actually was.

My financial life has included big wins and painful losses. Years of strong income, recognition, and momentum. And years marked by debt, fear, and starting over more times than I ever expected. I’ve made money and lost it again. Built things and watched them unravel. Carried success publicly while privately questioning why it never seemed to hold.

I wasn’t irresponsible. I wasn’t unskilled. And I wasn’t lacking information.

I was stuck in patterns I didn’t yet know how to name.

Eventually, I got tired of working hard just to repeat the same financial cycles. Tired of “doing everything right” and still feeling unsteady. Tired of thinking the next strategy would finally fix it.

That exhaustion became the turning point.

Why InnerFund™ Exists

After years working in radio and television, I started to notice something consistent in the way people talked about money. Whether they were calling into a show, responding to an interview, or sharing their own stories, the emotion underneath the money conversation was often stronger than the numbers themselves. When I began sharing my own financial journey publicly, that pattern became even clearer.

I wanted to understand what was under the money, especially in underserved communities where financial struggle is often framed as a lack of discipline or knowledge rather than a response to lived experience.

Instead of pursuing a traditional business or finance path, my focus became theology. I was drawn to questions of meaning, belief, inheritance, and care. My work now sits at the intersection of spiritual care, nervous-system safety, ancestry, and internal belief systems. That lens has made this work more impactful for the companies and institutions I partner with because it addresses the real drivers of financial behavior, not just the surface-level symptoms.

Sometimes budgeting isn’t enough when someone is fighting a money story they inherited at five years old. I know this personally. I grew up watching my entrepreneur father lose business after business, and I absorbed beliefs about money, risk, and safety long before I had language for them.

InnerFund™ was created to address those realities with integrity. It’s important to me that this work serves my community with ethical, practical systems that help people build wealth that can hold, grow, and be carried forward through generations.
