I met Diane about 20 years ago. I will always remember the first time I met her, and I was so inspired by her drive to be amazing for everyone, but specifically women. Diane went on to run multiple businesses and has currently launched a membership program for women called Nourish. You can read more about Diane at www.DianeCunningham.com

We should have been landing in South Bend, Indiana this week for the baton twirling nationals competition. Instead, we have gathered online to share memories of past competitions. I feel this interview is so appropriate for this week especially as Sabrina Smith, the current College Miss Majorette of America, talks about twirling and her journey of competing and college twirling.

I have always believed if you don't ask, the answer is no anyway. I recently signed up to sell Zyia Active, and everything in life has changed! I reached out to the CEO of the company to see if she would be willing to do a podcast episode with me, and she said YES! It's not every day we get to hear from an amazing female entrepreneur who has taken her company to make millions of dollars. Talk about a great moment in my life. Enjoy this episode!

Steve Larsen has helped thousands of people make millions of dollars, but can he help baton twirlers? Listen to this episode to see what he has to say about our sport.

Professor Rees gives us more ideas about twirling through other avenues other than the football field. Many former college twirlers would give the same advice about where to twirl, and to JUST ASK! Enjoy part 2 of this episode!

Who better to speak with than my band director from college about twirlers on the field? Professor Jay Rees (known to students as "Rees") is a fantastic band director at the University of Miami. He was previously at the University of Arizona for many years prior. We got into some great discussions about twirlers on the field and what directors look for.

Cody Carter has one of the most unique styles of twirling. It has led him to stages all over the world including America's Got Talent and World Championships in multiple countries.

Coronavirus has hit the performing arts community pretty hard. We talk with Sarah Beth Byrum from Oregon who runs the All That! Dance Company. She shifted everything to be online, and has pretty great tips for any type of studio!
