About Dayna - Dayna Del Val

Are you ready to (re)Discover Your Spark?

Life is too short to not do the work to find out who you really are, not what you’ve been told you are or have been assigned, promoted or fallen in to. Your Spark is who you are at your core; it’s what lights you up inside. And believe it or not, everyone has one. Let’s start to (re)discover it together, shall we?

Once upon a time, perhaps you had a dream you were certain was yours to pursue. But then life happened. Responsibilities and detours took over, and maybe you lost sight of that dream, if you ever knew it clearly at all. Perhaps your journey has been filled with extraordinary achievements, but now you’re at a crossroads, unsure of the next turn to take.

This is my story, too. It’s the reason I founded (re)Discover Your Spark. I’ve developed a practical and soulful series of steps designed to help you reignite, or perhaps ignite for the first time, the dream that fuels your passion and purpose for the next stage of your life.

I’ve personally experienced the transformational power of this process, and I’ve had the privilege of guiding hundreds of others who have also seen their lives evolve in extraordinary ways. Together, we’ve witnessed remarkable growth and change.

So, what about you? Are you ready to dream more, achieve more and become more?

I’m here, and I’m excited to work with you on this journey.

My Professional Bio

Dayna Del Val is on a mission to help others discover the spark they were born with through her extraordinary blog and newsletter, professional talks and the Discover Your Spark experiences she leads. She’ll help you not just identify and articulate your dreams but develop a framework to get going on the pursuit of those dreams—today, in the next few months and for the years ahead. She’s at the intersection of remarkable and so, so ordinary, and she bets you are, too. Join her on the journey.

In February, 2020, Dayna and her husband Dr Andrew Mazz Marry launched a nine-week, 27-part multi-media series about his fall into and climb out of alcoholism and their joint journey back to a joyful marriage. They hosted a twice weekly livestream called Daily Dose of Dr Marry & DD from July 202 until December 15, 2022, where they openly shared their experiences (and have guests on to share theirs, too) so others feel less alone. They are helping end the stigma and shame of alcoholism.

For nearly 13 years, and for the first two+ years of this work, Dayna was the President & CEO of The Arts Partnership in Fargo, ND, an umbrella arts nonprofit organization dedicated to cultivating community through the arts.

Additionally, she is a professional stage and commercial actor. She launched the original Legendary tourism ads for the state of North Dakota, but for some reason, everyone seems to focus on the Josh Duhamel ones instead. 😉

Dayna holds a Master’s degree in English Composition as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre.
