SAMANTHA KELLEY
Sam is the Founder and President of FIERCE Athlete (fierceathlete.org). She has spent the last 10 years working for Catholic nonprofits and outreaching to female athletes. She graduated with a Masters in Catholic Psychology, holds certification in Strength & Conditioning and has extensively studied the Theology of the Body.
It was actually through the teachings of Theology of the Body and the Catholic Church that she has discovered what it means to be both feminine and athletic.
MARIE DiCECCO
After 35 years as a health teacher, Marie DiCecco decided to use her knowledge and talents to educate young women and married couples about the beauty of their bodies and fertility. After completing an Allied Health program, she is now a trained Naprotechnology specialist and is passionate about educating young females on the beauty of their femininity and their natural ability to bring life into the world.
Marie believes that the foundation of the “feminine genius” – as defined and described so elegantly by Pope St. John Paul II – lies in her capacity to know that she is endowed with specific feminine gifts that encourage her to become the woman she is called by Him to be.
