It’s been a while since I’ve talked about my fitness endeavors but I’ve certainly been busy! This past weekend, I had the opportunity of speaking at an event, the “Be Empowered: Live Workshop and Network Event” hosted by On-Point Eventz. I spoke on embracing your passion and getting paid for it, and used my fitness experience as a case study. I’m still budding and growing but last year brought an exponential growth for me in this area. I started my Instagram page, created  my Afrobeat workout video (now at 8500+ views!), joined a small start-up: Sweat University, a faith based health organization, led boot camps, led Afrobeat workouts at a local gym, led a preceptorial at my Alma mater’s New Student Orientation on staying fit and avoiding the freshman 15, and coached high school cross country for the first time. All this to say, I’m definitely BIG on health and fitness and welcome any opportunity to further this passion of mine.

Hey it’s me!

The event on Saturday was a great turnout! I was one of two speakers and was able to connect with local entrepreneurs in the area. I learned a lot and enjoyed it all – a Saturday well spent!

The wonderful attendees. A huge thank you to On-Point Eventz for having me!

Part of this growing process is expanding my reach. I finally launched my Facebook page, “Fit and Fine with Dee” and I encourage you to like the page! I post workout videos, fitness tips, health tips, and nutritional information on there. I’m all about promoting a healthier, physically active community. So like the page, follow me on Instagram, and join me in living a healthier lifestyle!
