What does it mean to live your fierce?
Well, it’s different to everyone. For most of us, living our fierce is finding a way to overcome our fears and the obstacles that are in the way of us bringing our passions and dreams into reality.
The LYF Project is an initiative to build a community for fierce women, led by fierce women. We lead by example, support with love and a whole lotta laughter. It’s founding fierce femmes include stuntwomen, entrepreneurs, elite athletes, teachers and moms from all over the world.

LYF is calling out to women who are curious, active and not afraid to try something new (but may not be sure of how to go about it). Those who are willing to turn obstacles into opportunities, setbacks into teachable moments and life’s messes into laughable memories.
Our community will support and engage it's members through its various social media platforms, sharing the journeys of other fierce women from around the world and grow to include speaking engagements, activity workshops and summits.
“From Fear to Fierce”
Andrea Ross, is an energetic, playful, multi-skilled athlete and action artist in the stunt performing industry.
She is making her mark by being more than just a talented bonafide badass. A trained gymnast, freestyle wrestler, parkour athlete and circus performer, Andrea continues to add martial arts, driving and water based skills to her performance arsenal. She’s basically turned being clumsy (or selectively coordinated as she likes to describe it) into a hirable and sought after skill.
Amber is just a girl from Calgary who wanted to experience all life has to offer. She has always been passionate about movement and started her Club career in fitness. She pushed herself to take on every challenge and opportunity that presented and rose to the top of the male-dominated Club industry becoming the second female General Manager of a private Club in New York City. Amber started a new leadership role during the 2020 pandemic and demonstrated that she is the leader you want in a crisis.
