In this episode, I’m joined by Jen Hamilton, Emmy-nominated choreographer, dancer, producer, studio owner, mother of two and one of the most grounded powerhouses I know.
We go way back, so yes, there are stories from the early dance days, but this conversation is really about what it takes to build a creative career that lasts.
We talk about dance, Hollywood sets, mentorship, motherhood, midlife, imposter syndrome, resilience and the way the entertainment industry can both make you and test every part of you.
Jen shares what she has learned from decades of showing up with discipline, humility and serious talent, and why movement can unlock something in people that words often cannot.
Highlights:
(05:16) - What it felt like to grow up with drive, discipline and dance
(08:00) - How assisting Marguerite Derricks shaped Jen’s confidence on big sets
(12:55) - Why movement can unlock something powerful in adults
(16:25) - What young creatives need to know about today’s dance industry
(24:14) - The courage it takes to build a creative career
(30:18) - Navigating midlife, motherhood and personal reinvention
