Imagine you have been a dancer since a very young age, you are in your last year of performing arts college and undergoing final assessments. You have been training for months in preparation for this exam. Now imagine, instead of this exam being held in a great hall on a stage with lights, it is instead held in your parents living room, over zoom, while dad is in the back vacuuming.  That anti-climactic end to college was the reality for Georgia and her peers. 

Thrust into post-college life with the news that the performing arts industry she was destined for may never return after covid, Georgia was forced to reflect on the parts of herself which exist outside of dance. No easy task for a woman who has spent years molding herself into the "perfect dancer". Naturally, Georgia discovered parts of herself which hadn't ever seen the light. 

This episode is about reinventing yourself, accountability and a lot of self-love. Hope you enjoy.
