Broche Banter | Adult ballet training, philosophy, & inspiration

Embracing Frustration with Artist Holly | Season 3 Episode 9


Listen Later

This week, we’re joined by Holly, a self-taught artist and dedicated adult ballet dancer, who’s currently training to go en pointe.

Together, we delve into the ever-relatable “taste gap”—the often frustrating space between where we are and where we aspire to be.

Ballet brings its own unique challenges, and for adult dancers, it’s a rare pursuit that’s not always met with understanding or encouragement, unlike more typical hobbies like gym workouts or marathon training.

Holly shares how she reframes challenges, like moments of frustration and confusion, into fuel for both her ballet journey and her art.

This episode invites us to step outside our comfort zones, embrace imperfection, and remember that showing up is a victory on its own.

Tune in for Holly’s inspiring insights and a refreshing reminder of the power of persistence.

Listen in and be inspired to bridge your own taste gap!
