Dena has had a phenomenal career put on and off stage, featuring in live musical productions and lead roles on television series as well as being cast as one of the main dancers and actresses in the Dance Academy movie.

Joining me while in isolation, Dena opened up about the rollercoaster 2020 has taken her on. From losing all of her planned gigs playing at concerts and festivals around the world, to experiencing so major struggles and setbacks with her mental and physical health. In a very vulnerable Instagram post, Dena shared with her loyal and adoring community of over 220,000 ‘’I have been stripped of everything I once thought defined my identity, the saying you have to lose yourself to find yourself has never felt more relatable.
