In this episode, we sit down and chat with prominent leader and radio icon, Stephanie Sidela.    Stephanie talks to us about her dance journey and having a foundation of technical training.  Stephanie shares her insights on the dance community, gives advice to dancers and leaders struggling to find inspiration during the pandemic, tells us her favorite memories while both dancing on and directing 220 and gives us her thoughts on married life.  Stephanie discusses the current state of the dance community and reminds us that we can heal if we change our perspective.  We talk about what’s next for Stephanie and what feeds her soul.   We take a deep dive into the “power” of now and seeing the opportunity in even the most challenging times.  We switch gears and do a fun round of our rapid fire questions and try to pitch a marriage podcast with Stephanie and her husband as the hosts!  Stephanie leaves us on a positive note and gives us encouragement to use social media for the good.
