About Marla-Deen

Hello and Welcome! I am so glad you have found my site.  Here is where I am to tell you a bit about myself.  The fact that you are here is amazing to me.  This is why . . .

I am not a best selling author, famous fitness guru, influencer with millions of followers or sought after motivational speaker (although I play those roles in my head!)
This is what I am.
I am a mom.  I am a lawyer. I am a dog lover.  I am a self-professed health and wellness lover.  I am an appreciater of life and,  oftentimes,  a weeble that wobbles but doesn’t fall down.
As far as my background, here is the nutshell.
Back in law school I began teaching group fitness classes and fell in love with everything about it.  Then I graduated, began work and got married.  I didn’t have as much time for teaching, but missed it ridiculously.  Years ago I left the practice of law to be home with three rambunctious sons.   I returned to teaching fitness classes while my boys were young and that blossomed into a fitness business and platform to share my passion for health and wellness.  I have exercise and nutrition certifications to represent the varied and ever-changing aspects of the health industry.  These days, things have come full circle as life, in its funny way of keeping things interesting, has me again wearing that lawyer hat, but since I cannot throw my passion for all things health and wellness away, here I am.
Now, back to me . . .
I was a daughter, a sister and a wife.
I have lost the people that gave me those titles.
Because of these losses I have had a front-row seat and first-hand experience watching the effects of poor health on those I love.  Whether the physical, like heart and lung issues, autoimmune disorders and stroke, or whether from mental health and addiction,  I know for certain that our health and well-being determine the type of lives we live.
I am a strong believer that we have been gifted with this one big beautiful life.  It is up to each of us to value our body, mind and soul.
I am a woman of faith and I am a perpetual positive thinker.
I am here to be that positivity pusher,  healthy lifestyle motivator,  to flip the switch on a thought, give one nugget to make you think, smile or help your day.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you’ll stay,  join me pushing positivity and  finding a healthy balance to living well!

Enjoy!

Marla-Deen Brooks
