It feels weird to go back to normal after Dolly Parton's death tbh. I always hate it the way it seems everyone goes back to "normal" after something crazy or upsetting happens. But we can't let sadness keep us back either

Dolly means a lot to us and tbh at one point we actually considered naming the gym after her in some way when we first came up with this gym concept. The main reason is because she is resilient, brave, kind, and loving; everything we value as a business. And she has been the figure that helped me imagine a version of myself that was unapologetically me and build a solid sense of self in all aspects, which then led to the ability to create The Lifting Lab and foster its amazing community 💞

Anna has "Better Get to Livin" tattooed to her alongside her favorite photo of Dolly. This song perfectly encapsulates the motivation she created in Anna to continue to be brave among all the fear and truly shows the impact Dolly's music and life story had on Anna. Anna was not always a strong, brave, and confident woman. I actually used to be very insecure and I still have insecurities from time to time now but now I know who I am and can fall back on that person every time I doubt myself.

Although we must find our new normal among the chaos of this world, we refuse to forget the figures and the people that helped build us to who we are today 💞

Now to forge on with our heads, hair, and heels high 😘 as we continue to try to consistently show up for all of yall each day 💗

I’m shaking as I type this but sadly Dolly Parton has passed away & we are unbelievably heartbroken 💔

For those that don’t know, Anna (me) doesn’t really idolize people but I idolize Dolly Parton for many reasons & she inspired me in many ways. I even have a tattoo of her

She is generous, kind, loving, & her philanthropic work changed millions of lives. She always found ways to uplift those who were disadvantaged. Even though she grew up extremely poor she always used any privilege she had to help bring others up with her. She was a voice for all marginalized groups which included not only her speaking up for others but also her investing both time & money to help their communities

As “Dreamer-in-Chief” in more ways than just at Dollywood, “she never saw a door she couldn’t open & the doors she opened made & changed history,” Dolly’s nephew. Even through the hard times, she found joy in her journey. I think her song Coat of Many Colors shows this perfectly. There can always be good to be found if you are searching for it. Her hard earned freedom, independence, courage & trust in herself in the face of adversity are also inspiring. She showed the world what it looks like to lead with love & was a light that inspired so many & will continue to do so even now

She lit a fire in me a long time ago when I randomly found her music, that led me to discover who she was & the life she led. She is unapologetically herself in all aspects. This led me on a journey of self-exploration & self-love with someone who had done it too. I went from being meek, quiet, super depressed & so far away from my sense of self to being able to be fully me & unapologetic about it. I learned to live in ways I loved without shame. She led me to be better

This personal transformation took a lot of self-work, therapy, listening to others experiences, & intentional time but her life story & music has forever changed my life. I will be forever grateful for the embers that she lit that turned into this blazing fire within me now

A true icon does not describe the light she brought to this world & will continue to bring & inspire for years to come

We will always love you Dolly!
