After an incredible weekend at the Business of Dance Conference in Perth, I walked away with a notebook full of insights and today, I’m sharing the six biggest lessons I learned (and how you can apply them to your studio before 2026).

In this episode, I unpack what it really means to be in a room full of growth-minded studio owners and why proximity, leadership, simplicity, and presence are the real game-changers for your business.

We’ll talk about:

• Why the right environment shifts your standards

• How to lead with calm, confident energy

• The importance of simplifying your strategy before the new year

• Turning ideas into action (without waiting for the perfect moment)

• Why culture and connection matter more than any marketing plan

Whether you were at the conference or watching from afar, this episode will help you reset, refocus, and finish the year with clarity and direction.

Listen now to gain perspective, reignite your leadership, and take a few actionable lessons into 2026.
