We all remember Christi Lukasiak as the funny and fiery mom from the hit TV series Dance Moms. Never afraid to tell it how it is, Christi has since built a career publicly sharing the lessons she's learned along the way.  Whether it be about motherhood or basic adulting skills, Christi is on a mission to empower the next generation to be comfortable in their own skin.

After being thrown into the world of reality TV, Christi had to quickly learn the realities of being in the spotlight. In the years following Dance Moms, Christi has been dedicated to using her platform to make a positive impact. Throughout her journey, Christi has been able to transform her mistakes into some of her greatest successes, and she is here to help others do the same. While she has always been business-minded, Christi never imagined that she could launch her career by focusing on what she’s most passionate about… being a mom.

Tune into this episode of DearFound Her… for a raw and honest conversation about imperfection. Learn more about the importance of authenticity, letting go of your past, and following your passions so you can create a life that is meaningful to you but also leaves a lasting impact on those around you.
