    Stop "Shoulding" On Yourself: Part 2 - What's In Your Facility?

    In this episode, I share with you a personal story of a bad injury that I struggled with due to the "fear-trifecta", how I had to work really hard to heal my body (I love giving mini anatomy walk throughs) and the bad mindset habits that kept me in an unhealthy place. I take you into the breakthrough I finally had that is credited to my friend and mentor, Ryan Beck, who gave me the greatest gift of teaching me one simple question! You'll get my 4 point checklist that I use every time I want to create something or find I'm struggling to progress (in dance and outside of dance) and how I have found so much freedom in my life, my body and my mind! The relief is real people 🙌 *Just make sure you've listened to "Stop Shoulding on Yourself, Part 1" first so you can get the most out of this episode! 😉

    Removing punishment, comparison and judgement mentality from your dance training and self-talk. Dance training can be hard on your body - and your mind and emotions too. In this episode I lay the foundation of where the fear, worry and self-doubt stems from, how to identify it and how to stop it, so that you can feel free and confident in your training.
