Phoenix Rising Coaching

Do you feel like you need a crutch just to get through the day?

If something feels off but you can't quite name it — if you're reaching for food, scrolling, staying busy, isolating, or people-pleasing just to get through each day — I want to talk to you.

I'm Dallas Brunette, and on September 24th at 6pm, I'm hosting a free webinar called Attention Women: Rewire Your Nervous System for Calm. You'll find it on Eventbrite or Luma.

I'm going to walk you through why your coping patterns aren't character flaws — they're your nervous system trying to protect you. And I'll share some of what's underneath those patterns — the beliefs driving them, and what it actually takes to work with your body, not just your mindset.

I want as many women as feel called to come. Come to be around other women. Come to be supported. Come to be seen.

Are you living your life or just managing it?

Be honest.

Getting through Monday so you can get to Friday.
Keeping everyone else okay so you don't have to look at yourself.
Staying busy enough that the quiet never catches up with you.

That's managing. And it's exhausting.

Living is something else entirely. It's when you stop white-knuckling your way through the week and start actually asking — why does this keep happening? What am I really carrying? What would my life feel like if I put some of this down?

One question can change everything.

What's yours? 💜

That thing that stops you from walking into a room with confidence, signing up for that class, starting that diet, or trying the thing you've been putting off — the voice that says you're not good enough — the habit of shrinking back when every part of you wants to step forward?

That's not a character flaw. That's your nervous system doing exactly what it was trained to do — protect you from something it once learned was dangerous.

But here's what's also true: every positive step you take sends your nervous system a new message. That you're safe. That you can handle this. That things are okay.

Going to the gym. Talking to yourself a little kinder today. Walking into that room like you belong there — even when part of you doesn't believe it yet.

It all counts. Every single step.

You don't have to overhaul your life to start changing it. You just have to take one positive step in the direction of who you're becoming. 💜

I started this course two months before my dad was shot and killed. I took it three times. I pushed through grief, through trauma, through a murder trial, through my own healing — all while trying to become the coach I knew I was meant to be.

Seven years. Three rounds. Somewhere around forty thousand dollars. 😅

Yesterday it all hit me at once — everything I had been through to get here. And I say this as someone who tells women not to just push through — sometimes the perseverance IS the healing. Sometimes that inner strength you built from the hardest things in your life is exactly what carries you to where you're supposed to be.

I wouldn't be the coach I am without everything that broke me open. I wish things had happened differently. But without them, I wouldn't be able to sit across from a woman who has been through something and say — I know. I really know. And we can find a way through this.

To every woman who thinks it's taking too long, who's wondering if it's worth it — keep going. 💜

I'm finally here. And I have never more ready to help.

 

Funny Friday😂

Big dog energy... until the door opens. 😂 The nail trim breakdown. The masks. I cannot. 😭

Honestly though — dogs have zero coping mechanisms for inconvenience and I respect it. Full meltdown, no apology. Maybe we could all take notes. 😂

Happy Friday everyone — whatever your week looked like, you made it. Go find your people and laugh a little. 💜

 

What do you do when you've been looking forward to something — you're excited, you're ready — and then it gets postponed?

Do you instantly get upset? Do you let it take you down for the rest of the day?

I had two podcasts I was so excited about, and both got postponed. And instead of spiraling, I just thought — the next one will be just as great. Things happen for a reason.

But here's what I want you to notice: that moment — when things don't go your way — that's where your coping mechanisms show up. That's where you see how you actually handle stress.

So pay attention. What happens in your body? What's your first instinct? Because those little reactions, the ones that happen every day — they're telling you something about how your nervous system is wired. And that awareness? That's where things start to shift.

Just something to think about. 💜
