Have you ever been told that you don’t have what it takes to accomplish your biggest dreams? When hip hop dancer Amanda LaCount was 10 years old, a studio director told her that her body type didn’t “fit his vision” for his dance team and she was kicked out. In the 8 years since, she’s performed on The Ellen Show, Dancing With the Stars, The Voice, and with artists like Meghan Trainor, Ryan Blyth, Katy Perry, and Lizzo. While Amanda has experienced more than her fair share of ignorant comments, she doesn’t let the haters keep her down. Instead, she uses them to fuel her body positivity movement, Breaking The Stereotype. If you’ve ever struggled with believing in yourself when others don’t, this episode is for you. You don’t have to fit in to be successful. If you love it, do it. @amandalacount6 via @MarieForleo
