#blessed #happy #new #thankful #year Jan 01, 2023

Happy Sunday Morning Dana,

And Happy New Year 2023! We did it... we are here!

How are you feeling today?

What word(s) comes to mind?

For me, it's "thankful" and "ready". Those are definitely the words that keep popping in my brain today as I'm reflecting on the past year and, honestly, a little stunned that 2023 is actually here... and I AM READY!

Most of us tend to reflect a little more as we transition from one year to the next.. on life, our path, the pandemic, our choices, the stellar souls we share time with, and of course all the things we did or didn't do in 2022 and the limitless possibilities of 2023.

~~~~~~~~~~

I AM THANKFUL. I AM READY.

Thankful for the outrageous speed of 2022 as it reminds me of the importance of soaking up the present moment.

I AM READY to slow down.

Thankful for my health, even though it is compromised right now.

I...

Living the FIERCE life...

#clarity #courage #overcome #practical #roadblocks Dec 13, 2022

Here at FIERCE, we’re anchored by our five pillars:

FITNESS, FUEL, FULFILLMENT, FRIENDSHIP, & FUN

It can be easy to toss around those words and say that we value those things, because most of us do! But we’re not just talking about working out and eating veggies every day; you don’t have to have 50 friends or spend every free moment with other people, either.

So what do all of these things look like on a practical, day-to-day basis?

The FIERCE life is all about…

Gaining clarity on where you are and where you want to go
Identifying and overcoming roadblocks
Being flexible in our mindset and constantly flipping the script
Creating and maintaining exceptional energy
Striving for balance in all aspects of life
Setting and holding to boundaries
Activating our learning by making lasting changes
Maintaining our efforts through repetition

We only have 32 days left in 2022 ...

32 DAYS!

What are the things you are most proud of this year?

How would you like to grow, stretch, and change in the new year?

Why is it important to reflect on the year behind us and plan for the next year to come? Because when we get bogged down by the monotony and routine of daily life, it can be easy to coast on autopilot.

Do you ever get all the way through the day and realize you can’t really remember how you got from point A to B to C?

When things get stressful and the overwhelm creeps in, it can be even easier to default to doing the things you’ve always done.

Sometimes, leaning into our defaults can be a blessing.

But what if the things you’ve always done just aren’t serving you anymore?

As we get ready to head into 2023, aren't you ready to BREAK FREE from the things that...

The beauty of gratitude...💚

#attitude #focus #gratitude #opportunities #thankfulness Nov 22, 2022

Good Morning ;

As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday this Thursday, let’s start off the week by setting our intentions filled with gratitude.

Developing a spirit of thankfulness is a lot like working out—the more you do it, the more habitual it becomes.

Gratitude doesn’t need to be reserved for special holidays, like Thanksgiving; it can be practiced every day, all year round.

What does your gratitude practice look like today?

How can you further cultivate gratitude this holiday season?

Let's keep it simple with 3 little ways...

Keep a gratitude journal. Taking a few minutes per day to reflect on what you’re thankful for can make a huge impact on the rest of your day. It also makes a special way to look back on your week, month, year, etc., all through the lens of gratitude.

Say thank you. It sounds simple, but actively look for opportunities each day to thank those...

Break Free from Goals

#consistency #goals #habits #lifestyle #sustainable Nov 15, 2022

And just like that we're half-way through November... 2022 is winding down and we can't help but look ahead to the new year... What's it going to bring? What can I change? What can I break free from so I can fully commit to myself and my health?

As we embark on this journey to break free in order to "BE ME", a healthier me, that means letting go of all the things that are holding us back. Despite how contradictory this might sound, sometimes that means breaking free from our goals.

What?!

Here me out, Marissa, – you know I love a good goal!! I’m all about building sustainable habits that help you transform your lifestyle in order to meet your goals. But sometimes we can get hung up on the goals themselves and forget about the habits and the lifestyle piece.

For example, maybe you set a goal to lose 30lbs by the end of the year. As part of our FIERCE tribe, you come to workouts, you start choosing whole, nourishing foods, you...

Break-Free From Who You "Should" Be

#fitness #health #lifestyle #prioritize #you Nov 08, 2022

Happy Tuesday,

As part of our FIERCE community, I'm fairly confident you know and understand the benefits of exercise, nutrition, and mindfulness for good health, inside and out.

You also are acutely aware of the massive “health” industry that tries to sell you products, gyms, classes, programs, guides, and apparel that will help transform the “you are right now” into the YOU that everyone around you says you SHOULD be.

That messaging – that you there is a version of you that you SHOULD BE – never ceases, slows or quits. And you know what? I’m over it! I’m throwing my hands in the air and saying “I. AM. DONE.” I am done with the should’s. I’m ready to choose ME, exactly as I am, right here and now.

You in?

I’m ready to listen to what I want and what I need and tune out the rest of...

I have a story for you, Dora...

And honestly it feels more like a confession than a story, hence the title "Coach D. Confessions".

I share it all in the 8 minute video below. If you'd rather read or get the "cliff notes" version, then simply scroll down and I'll give you the gist.

Either way, please checkout the 3 takeaways I share at the end of this message to see if they can be your guidelines as we move into the final 61 days of the year.

The theme I'm embracing: BREAK FREE!

The Cliff Notes Version:

Back at the end of June of this year, I knew something was off:

I was in pain, I was exhausted, my stomach was constantly bloated, I was irritable, my motivation (which is usually amped up) was fading...my body was off to say the least.
My Coach D. side said, "listen, rest, seek help, & figure it out."
My Derith side said, "you'll be fine, push through, just do a little more."
I...

Can't help falling in love with ME!

#confidence #journalize #love #priority #yourself Oct 25, 2022

For the whole month, as the seasons change and we spend more time slowing down, this is your reminder to spend some more time falling back in love with yourself.

I know it can sound cheesy, but it is necessary in these times. We must make ourselves a priority.

If you want to make yourself a priority, sometimes we need a little bit of help remembering why we are worth it.

These tips can work for any kind of relationship, but I hope you’ll use them to continue reconnecting to you and regaining the confidence that YOU are worth it.

You are worth putting yourself as #1, taking care of your body, mind, and spirit. I challenge to choose YOU this week and maybe one of ideas will help you do so.

I chose a few of Marelisa Fabrega’s ideas for how to fall back in love with yourself to share with you this week:

See Yourself Through the Eyes of Someone Who Loves You

Think of someone who loves you—this can be your...
