Starting March of 2022 my entire self + mental health took a pretty hard hit. At first it just felt like I fell into an uninspired season of life, such as we all can fall to, but it quickly started to spiral. Most days I felt paralyzed, like someone just came and sucked the life right out of me. And if you know me, I have invested the last 8 years to my mental / physical/ emotional and spiritual well being. I had never experienced something so intense.

I came down hard..

And while I couldn’t see it coming, I knew better.

I spoke up, sought the help and support I needed, took a step back from a LOT of things and began my journey the way I needed, at the pace I needed.

With that, came slowing down.

Realignment.

Doing more of what brought me joy.

Which ultimately lead me back to dancing in my basement.

Other than one year in high school where I took dance classes & LOVED competing in hip hop & musical theatre, I’ve ALWAYS just self taught/ found myself immersed in dance in all times in my life growing up. Sad, scared, celebration… music in general playing... I just love to move to a beat. I can’t help it lol

… and there it was on my “For You” page on Instagram one day … Turn Up™ Dance Fitness. And this SPICY firecracker of an instructor who IMMEDIATELY captivated me.

She was BOLD. She was INSPIRING and she was moving her class in a way that I have had literal envisions of myself doing (" 𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦 “)

I was obsessed. Every reel, story, piece of content Turn Up was putting out into the world was electric. I WANTED to be apart of it all.

And there it was… “𝙗𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙖 𝙏𝙪𝙧𝙣 𝙐𝙥™ 𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙧- 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙨𝙤𝙤𝙣.”

Crazy? Yup. I had NEVER taught a class in my life, let alone even taken an actual Turn Up class MYSELF lol. But the thought of pursuing this gave me this sense of life again… I literally had so many butterflies I thought I was going to float away!! I knew I needed this. Our community (local) would LOVE this. And the thought of being able to bring this type of experience to others lit my soul on FIREEE.

It was meant to be.

I can tell you it wasn’t an easy year… but taking the leap of faith on Turn Up™ certainly carried me through one hell of season

Hi there, I’m Shay! And I am a life enthusiast.

However, I haven’t always been this way…

From an early age on I was conditioned to believe that life was anything but abundant..

“Being successful is near impossible when you don’t come from much” ..
“Money is stressful”..
“Love is painful”..
“You live to work” ..
“Fairytales were simply that”..

It was the constant narratives I was hearing that quickly became my own, creating the very reality I feared the most.

Toxic love.
Self Sabotage.
Insecurities that ate me alive.
Impulsive spending habits.
Outburst of anger.
Suppressed emotions.
No ability to self express.

{ I know many can relate in a familiar way… ❤ }

I can confidently say that my Mama did her best with what she knew & what we had. She taught me a level of resilience that she herself could only teach me. She is the reason I am as strong as I am today. Love you Mama D

35 years into this life and I can happily say that I have healed. I am happy. I am healthy.

But friends… it had to get realll bad before I could see the reality I was creating for myself. In 2013, a year after my youngest son was born, I had enough. I vowed to pick myself up piece by piece and start showing up for me from a place of love.

Incredible things start happening for you when you start doing the intentional work in for yourself. Mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, big ways and little ways.

9 consistent years I have shown up for me. Far from perfectly, but passionately committed. And have been able to create the reality I want for ME.

I traded my retail job in to build an online business from home full time, helping other women with their limiting beliefs, wellness and mentoring in the online business world.

I get to be fully present with my boys as they grow but also give my husband the best of me too.

I pursued the little girl dream of loving to perform and became a Turn Up dance fitness instructor where I am teaching locally but also have expansive goals and dreams with Turn Up.

And truthfully, I have no idea what else the future holds for me. The opportunities, the growth, the things I will learn along the way. But I’m here for it.

So you see… it is MY MISSION to show other women that they too deserve to live a life of self empowerment. To date themselves! To not hold back on the big dreams! To find their power from the pain points of our past and use it to write your own transformation story. Maybe you even make an impact one day in telling it .

That being said,

Whether you stumbled across my page on accident, on purpose or for fun, HAPPY YOU ARE HERE GIRLFRIEND!

Here to dance along side you through life one leap, step and lesson at a time.
