I met Teresa Muhlenkort years ago. She found my name and contact info in a resource guide for -- wait for it -- acting. In case you don’t know, I don’t act. I tap dance. Was our meeting a mistake or an opportunity in disguise? It was an opportunity - as might be this time of coronavirus lockdown. 

A-Team in Transformation

I don’t know about you, but when I’ve got a “situation,” I want a solution. Coach E'dali Pollard takes us back to the basics, to when we learned, as little tykes, about the colors of a traffic light. She argues that if we’ll take more time to pause we’ll have better outcomes than if we just barrel ahead pell-mell and leave the rest to chance. 

Hear from a dance instructor who overcame self-doubt to develop the confidence to speak her mind when judging dance competitions. In this episode, you’ll learn about her goals and ambitions within the world of dance, what makes a good dance teacher, how to take care of yourself, that you don’t have to meditate every day to benefit from it, why rethink choreographing facial expressions, and about cryotherapy.

Welcome to the inaugural episode of all that is my blunt honesty.

In this episode, you’ll learn a bit about me, what to expect from future episodes, and why my sister, Louise, my only dance teacher declares, "Dancers are special."

You'll also hear my sister tell a rather dramatic story of an emotional airport encounter that speaks to the power of human kindness.
