So kind of diving into this, I know that a lot of people that you know have experienced anxiety in your life as early as life is to me and you. So can you describe when the first time you kind of felt anxiety, whether it's dance or school or your future, what is like the first kind of trigger for you?

The first thing I could think of is like the night before like the first day of school or

something important going on. Just like you're excited but you're also really nervous and like scared especially going into high school. I felt like that. Just like overwhelmed and like really nervous. Yeah, yeah those first days of school feelings are terrible. You don't know who you're gonna run into. You don't know if your teachers are gonna be nice. You don't know you don't know what's gonna go on. So I totally feel that and I've experienced that and going into high school too.

And it gets worse in college. It gets worse in college. And so do you have you ever dealt with stress in dance before with you know I know it's kind of like the first that's the most important thing in your life and what is kind of the main trigger in dance that you've experienced with anxiety?

I get really stressed out if I'm not able to figure out like combinations or just like

steps that we're doing in enough time. Like I feel like I'm gonna get behind or before performance. I get really stressed out and nervous about like being like doing my best and performing as well as

I can relate because it's a lot of pressure and you put so much time into it that you like can't help but be stressed about how your performance is gonna be. Yeah, yeah for sure and you don't know how it's gonna turn out but in the end it always works itself out. That's what I've dealt with in dance as well. It's just like you do it and you feel so relieved and you know you did your best and so it teaches you such a big lesson as well with just like dealing with your emotions and dealing with all that.
