Season 2 Episode 6: Dance Superpowers with Mariah Melson & Jana Mezsaros Dance Uncorked Podcast
-
- Artes
In the final episode of a short season 2, I am joined by fellow Company Movimiento core members, Mariah Melson and Jana Mezsaros to discuss some important dance superpowers that have brought success in their current careers. Mariah is the owner of a local resale clothing business, The Clothes Horse (my favorite shopping destination, hands down) and Jana works for the City of Eugene in the Cultural Services division. Together, we uncover the following superpowers (and more!):
Resourcefulness - A dancer's act of creating is quite literally, making something out of nothing. This skill is highly transferable in the workplace, and just might make you the most invaluable employee.
Confidence in creating; having faith in your own vision - Dance performance and choreographing builds confidence on a deeper level; we are willing to be courageously vulnerable with our audiences through our art. This kind of deeply rooted confidence is the mark of a great leader - something every company needs.
Throughout the episode, we can't help but discover more dance superpowers that have served us in our careers, and we engage in the discussion with glasses of Zilch's Non-Alcoholic Bubbly Brut as the beverage of choice. Just like the ease and joy I experienced with Mariah and Jana in this episode, we sipped on "bubbles without the troubles" and savored every last drop!
